No I didn't use the 305, because of the high swingweight. But my 290's play 'plush' and not to stiff. Only tested them with confidential and head lynx both at 20/19kg. Had good depth and control, but could string it 0,5 / 1kg tighter maybe.

I bought 2 white out 290's and customized them to 305 grams, 31,5cm balance and a strung swingweight of 320. The regular 305 has a higher swingweight (like a blade) and that is a bit to much for me. The rackets have a nice feel and have good control. I noticed that the grommet holes are pretty...

In my experience the QC of Tecnifibre is not that good. Yonex is great though.

I recently got to hit with the ezone 100 2020. Strung it with msv co-focus 1.18 and Wilson nxt at 23,5/23,5kg (DT 37). All I can say it is the best racket I hit with in a long time. The racket hits easy from both wings and I found it pretty stable at net. The control was also good. The only...

Posting my 2 cents about the Tflash 300 ps. Just bought two Tecnifibre TFlash 300 ps on sale. One was 303gr and 32cm balance and the other one was 296gr and 31,5cm balance (unstrung). I had them matched and the specs are now 305,5gr, a balance of 32cm and a swingweight of 283. I played with...

Never hit with an Yonex before. I have recently played with Head MG Rad MP and Mantis Pro 295. I just got two RDiS 100 MP for a reasonable price. I strung them up with MSV focus hex 1.18 @24kg. The RDiS plays great and as said by some before the sweetspot feels bigger. First impressions Volleys...

I only put some lead in the hoop. I think the rackets are around 300 grams unstrung at the moment. I know it is light, but at the moment I'm playing mostly doubles so it helps on my "reflexvolleys". Strung the Mantis with a poly (acelon 7 I think) at 19 or 20kg and it realy opens the sweetspot.

The Mantis pro 295 is somewhat like a Head Radical with 16*19 string pattern. 98 sq in head size 64 RA Beam width 21,5mm

I think there is still one mantis 295 left in the used section of TWE for €50,-...

Thanks guys for the reply. I just got two Mantis pro 295 from the used section at TWE for €50 each. Also saw a Wilson 95 16*18 so maybe going to pick that one up too. I do think I have to add some lead (and leather) to the Mantis, but besides the stifness rating, it is pretty similar in spec to...

Just got two Mantis Pro 295 from the used section at TWE (€50,- each). From what I know the 310 is a 295 with a leather grip (more or less). The headsize of the 295/310 is slightly larger than the 305 and the 295 is a good racket to customize. The 295 (in stock form) is very to swing. I haven't...

Thanks everyone for their reactions and advice. I'll first tinker around with the strings before doing some more customizing or switch to another racket. As tribesman said the most important thing is to enjoy the game. I'm a recreational player with decent strokes who likes to play a few local...

I play more with spin than flat, but not in a Nadal kind of loopy way. I play with a SHBH which I try to play with more spin (worked better with the Prestige S). In rally's I start from outside of the baseline, but I try to get more on or inside the baseline. I play mostly doubles and I like...

I'll bet I'm fitter than you haha

My set up is m20kg acelon seven/c22kg acelon syn. gut. Maybe I should try full multi again and/or some lead at 12. It is a lot cheaper than buying a pair of new rackets (although it's always nice and fun:))
