How do you know?

Let me re-phrase......

Wilson Sensation is to a tennis racquet like a flat tire is to a car.

What is your opinion on NXT, NXT Tour, NRG2 and X-1 Biphase? Just curious, thanks.

Using the sofa metaphor, OP just farted in the cushions and let out a sigh of relief!

Sensation is what it is.
It's fine for the flat-hitting, short swing, rec players who want more power and less shock in their OS racquets than they get from PSGD.
It is overpriced(usually). I've stocked up on the mini reels because I service those players.
Not a bad X for poly, though.

"I hate Wilson Sensation!" he said. He was crazy. He kept saying, "I hate Wilson Sensation!"

And then he ran into my racket... He ran into my racket ten times.

LMAOOOO! High five.

You know how some people have these little habits that get you down? Like Bernie. Bernie liked to chew gum. No, not chew. POP. So I come home from work one night and I'm real irritated, and I'm looking for a little sympathy. And there's Bernie, lying on the couch, drinking a beer and chewin'. No, not chewin'. POPPIN'. So I said "If you pop that gum one more time..." And he did. So I took the shotgun off the wall and fired two warning shots... into his head.
