nice, was the weight right? like was it heavy enough for a tour player or someone used to a KBT?

The weight is distributed pretty evenly throughout the frame,, and for sure for sum1 who uses a KBT....By far one of the best rackets I have ever played with....

I have hit with this frame for the last week or so and I have just switched away from the kblade tour (went back to my prince original graphites for now). The feel of the new head racquet is pretty nice, fairly stiff, would guess the RA between 65-67. I just think it is way too light, if i were to use this frame it would need some significant lead tape. The stick just doesn't feel real stable when you really take a big cut at the ball, but some more mass in the head might feel better. I haven't had the opportunity to re-weight them since they are demos at the club, but waiting for the PRO model since it is 20g heavier out of the box, it may hit better (i hope so).

I play great with this racket and I know that the racket isnt the reason for sucess but it Sure Helps!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

hmm sounds like tennis wize thought gd weight but ae1222 thought it was light, maybe the pro would be better? as it's more like the kbt and heavier, more of a tour racket i guess.

anyone know if the speed pro is similar to the prestige? I know that Head measures the prestiges differently than other companies.. are they continuing the trend on the new rackets? closer to a 96" than 98" as said before about prestiges?

can you (or anyone on this board) compare the Speed Pro MP 16 x 19 to the MG Rad Pro? thx

What racket can you compare it to? What racket did you use before this one?

hey tennis wiz, have you ever hit with the aerogel 300 (old), if so how does it compare? Also i noticed the microgel radical in one of your pics, how does the speed racket compare to the microgel radical

Probably not just the racquet though, the blackcode is a stiff string that goes dead quickly
