Yes, light, breathable, speed oriented was what they were aiming for.

Few more: Sergio Tacchini: Martin Klizan, Gilles Muller, Marton Fucsovics Diadora: Gaston Gaudio, Ivan Ljubicic, Alex Dolgopolov, Dudi Sela

New colourways are available at TWE: https://www.tenniswarehouse-europe.com/catpage-MSLOTTO-DE.html So it seems that the line will continue for the foreseeable future. The new Raptor Hyperpulse looks interesting....

Thank you for your response Michelle! Sad to hear that really; hopefully they won't discontinue the line.

Hello, Will Diadora be releasing a new version for the Speed Star K (Duratech/Ace/Elite) for 2021? Many thanks in advamce.

The Team is a take down version of the Revolt pro. Unless budget is an issue, I'd recommend trying out the Revolt pro. FWIW, my club coach has the new 3.5 and swears by them. For reference, he has been wearing Asics (Resolution and Solution Speed) for the past 5 years and finds these far better...

I've had very positive experiences with both the latest Revolt (3.0) and Sprint Pro Line. Despite appealing to a different customer base, I've found both to be very well cushioned, comfortable, durable and well made. They are definitely worth trying out, especially when you can find them at...

Recently bought last season's model as it became available at heavily discounted prices. It's a decent shoe, though hardly worth its retail price. By the looks of it, not much has changed other than the colour ways for 2021...

I really like it, which is the reason why I still have a couple of rackets strung with it (in a hybrid with gut). I think of it as a jack of all trades; does everything quite well with no glaring weaknesses. I just felt that the strings I mentioned above are a tad softer/more comfortable with a...

The Diadora Blushield 4 and Blushield Fly 2 are wide fitting - with plenty of room in the toe box. They come with clay specific soles and, ime, are indestructible.

I've found that the Mirage 200 are the widest fitting model in the Lotto line up; but still on the narrow side of medium.

I think she uses the TGT 339x pro stock code (339.1 for 18x20, 339.2 for 16x19, Pro and MP respectively). I have both versions and both have Pro and MP noted on them.

I have tried quite a few combinations over the years, including most of the RPM, Alu Power and Head Hawk families. My primary goal focuses on comfort and playability/tension hold with moderate power, control and spin thrown into the mix (I like to think that I can generate my own!). As of now...

Getting very good results with a VS Touch/Signum Pro Firestorm hybrid (strung @ 52/48 on a Head TGT 339.1 Speed Pro). I was initially afraid it could end up being a rocket launcher but, c. 20 hours in, this combo has impressed me with it's very good balance of power and control; I've found spin...

I think they meant Oxford, Mississippi, where the University of Mississippi is located....

Between the two, the X Force Pro should be better suited to your requirements; the X Force Pro No 1 (252 series) and the X Tour Pro 97 might be worth looking at as well. The latter two remain my favorite control frames from Pacific's current line up. Add some lead tape to increase swing weight...

The 262.4 is the pro stock code for the IG Speed Pro.

Yep, I second that. I used to be a huge Lotto fan, but none of their latest products (starting with the Stratospheres) have agreed with me. All my shoes are now from Diadora (Speed Stars/Blushields/Blushield Fly) and I have been very satisfied.

I think it's the current 339.1 pro stock version of the Speed pro 360.

Actually, surprisingly well - I get a lot of mileage out of this combo. I use it in a dense 18x20 pattern (Head Speed pro) and haven't had any discernible shredding issues with the gut mains.

Midsole/outsole remain the same; updates only seem to have focused on the uppers (especially unitongue padding and heel collar). IME, they are a slight improvement over their predecessors (which is a good shoe as well) in that respect; but the 2's do have a narrower fit with less room in the...

After trying out quite a few different combinations, I have to say that Babolat VS Touch (1.30) and RPM Team (1.25) still remains my go to reference. IME, playability wise, RPM Team is very similar to the RPM Blast; it plays much softer than its specs suggest and, in terms of durability and...

Two young, up-and-coming players, A. Popyrin and L. Musetti (AO 2019 junior's champion) are using the Prestige.

Wayne Ambler, The Anabasis of Cyrus, C.U.P (2008) is the one I would recommend.

Nalby and Safin would also be my first picks, though I always appreciated the fluid, almost effortless looking mechanics behind Kafelnikov's backhand. Deceptively elegant imo. JC Ferrero should also get an honourary mention.

Switching back to using his H22 (Blade paintjob) in Rotterdam, Dubai, Indian wells, Miami, Monte Carlo and Barcelona as well, has not helped his game. His results have been abysmal throughout this year. Apparently, he has yet to make a decision whether he will be switching to Head.

Looks like the pro stock version of the Extreme Graphene, the TGT 333.1.
