Babolat Pure Aero 2026 Review: Pure Aero 98 and Pure Aero 100
Here is my full Babolat Pure Aero 2026 review, covering both the 100 and the 98. I tested the prototype cosmetic, which is the same racquet as the retail version, just with a different paint job. I have been hitting with these for quite some time this year and I’m impressed. Here is why, plus […]
Wilson Blade 100 Pro Review – finally back for club players
The Wilson Blade 100 Pro is one of the more interesting racquets in the Wilson lineup. It is based on the old Wilson Steam 100 BLX mold, which has been extremely popular on the WTA Tour for years as a pro stock (usually difficult to find and if you find it, expensive). Players like Mirra […]
Dunlop CX 2027 First Impressions – More Power, More Stability, Still Plenty of Control
The new Dunlop CX rackets are coming in 2027, and I’ve already spent quite a bit of time with two blacked-out test frames. I’ve had them for a few weeks now, and while I don’t have all the final specifications yet, I’ve played enough to form some pretty strong first impressions. I’ve also measured the […]
HEAD iPrestige MP 2.0 & Prestige Limited Review: First Impressions from a Prestige Lover’s Heart
I’ve got two beautiful frames on my desk that made me feel things I haven’t felt in a while. HEAD sent over a proper prestige double bill: the Prestige MP Limited and a reissue of the legendary iPrestige MP 2.0, and honestly, it’s been one of the more fun testing sessions I’ve had in a […]
Yonex Muse Review – Comfort and power
It was quite difficult to get hold of the Yonex Muse in Europe. Thanks to Tennis Warehouse Europe, we managed to get a review copy of the Yonex Muse 100L. This is lighter than what I am used to playing, but racquets in general are getting lighter, so I think most club players might end […]
Diadem Elevate V4 Review: The underdog control racquet gets a glossy upgrade
For advanced, hard-hitting tennis players, the Diadem Elevate franchise has always been something of an insider secret. Introduced to provide maximum control, it carved out a dedicated niche among competitive players who want traditional precision but with a slightly more user-friendly, spin-friendly response than a standard 18×20 control racquet (the Elevate is 16/20). Now, Diadem […]
Wilson Python Review: The New Spin Weapons from Wilson
We got early access to Wilson’s upcoming Python racquets, including the P98 and the P100 and these are our thoughts. Wilson has been running a fairly low-key campaign around its new “Python” series. Which is just the prototype name. We wrote about it in our early post about the new Wilson spin racquet. The racquets […]
Solinco 115 Prizm & 110 Blackout Review: Are Oversized Frames Having a Moment?
Let’s be honest. I usually procrastinate on oversized racquet reviews. There are always more interesting sticks in the queue – something for match play, something for the serious club player. But Solinco sent over the 115 Prizm and the 110 Blackout, and I gave them a proper hitting session. Here’s the verdict. Solinco 115 Prizm […]
HEAD Squared Review – the best beginner racket?
Sometimes a racquet comes along that doesn’t quite fit the usual silos – and that’s exactly what the Squared feels like. Read or watch our HEAD Squared review. Introduction Positioned (somewhat modestly) as a beginner-to-intermediate frame, this latest release from Head is, in reality, something much more interesting: a highly maneuverable, ultra-comfortable, spin-friendly racquet with […]
Nordicdots Model 99 G2 Review – their most refined racquet?
Nordicdots is back with an update to their first racquet, their Model 99. And here we are with an in-depth Nordicdots Model 99 G2 Review. Introduction The Nordicdots Model 99 G2 is not just an update—it’s a reset. Where Generation 1 flirted with innovation (and occasionally frustration), Generation 2 lands with a much clearer identity.
