recommendation

Hi everyone, I've been playing tennis for a consistent year now although I've had some classes in my youth. I got pure aero 98 as a present which has kirschbaum polymer strings on it. It's been 8-9 months with the racket but I'm not feeling it's unleashing the racket's full potential. As I've...

Hi! I would appreciate hearing your opinions on this. I have been using my old Flexpoint Radical Tour 100sq (2005 I guess) for several years now..... THE SPECS 100 sq 325g (unstrung) 347g (strung) Balance point 315mm (unstrung)/ 8 pts HL 16x19 21mm beam 57 lbs I can say that I still like...

Okay, so the Iga racquet is heavily discounted, sounds amazing, but I can't demo it. Does anyone play with this racquet, and if so, how would you describe it and compare it to other racquets you've used? I'm a male around 5.0 ntrp looking to switch from a Vcore 95 2021 for a few reasons: The...

I’m a talented junior player and my choices for strings are limited to what my local stringer has in store. I’m using an ezone 98 and my preferred tension is 23kg. I’m looking for control, spin, durability and comfort in a full bed of strings. I’ve used Alu power, RPM blast and poly tour drive...

I'm a 29 year old male (6'1", 190 lbs) who used to be an advanced player in high school. Not sure what my rating is these days (probably 4.0-4.5), but I'm just now getting back into tennis after a long hiatus. I've been playing 3-5 times per week for the past few months. In high school I played...

Hey fellow tennis tennisnerds, I’m looking for a new stick and I’m sure that you tennis enthusiasts could help me with your thoughts and recomendations. I’m sharing my racket journey to help you understand my situation: -I played with a pure aero child model in well, my childhood. I liked...

Hey everyone, I’ve decided that I want to start stringing my rackets and, obviously, I need my own machine. I’ve searched in the forums and seems that my question is not uncanny, but also seemed that it was mostly “not so actual” advice - it could be, but with inflation and all… So, I’m...

I recently purchased a Head Gravity Pro with Head Lynx Tour @48lbs. I don’t really feel like this string is as great as I liked it to be. I got a recommendation for Solinco Confidential @51 lbs, might try this unless I get a better recommendation.

I got MiStringer for Christmas, and I am considering returning it because of its clunky crosses stringing method and its clamps. Yet, this stringer has quite a few pros (size, tension accuracy, six-point frame mounting). Has anyone here on the forum used it long enough to give me a...

Hey, Background: I am 35 years old and I haven't played tennis in the last 20 years. I used to play tennis in the past, for 7 years, when I was 11 to 18 years old. Back to Tennis: In the past two months I have been playing twice a week in a club. No tournaments or anything like that. My gear...

Anybody who has tried the TF40 305 16x19 or the TFight 300 RS, which do u prefer when it comes to power and maneuverability. I’m coming from the 298 xtc also.

Hello guys. I have been playing tennis for 1 year and I’m 38. I started playing with blade 98 v7 (305g) then felt it’s too difficult to control the stick for beginners like me. So I switched to Head Instinct MP (300g) 2019 after my friend advised me. Now I feel comfortable particularly for the...

Hey all, I'd love to get your recommendations for my string setup. I currently play with a Yonex Ezone 100 strung with Tecnifibre Triax 16 at 52 lbs. I've been playing for a little over a year, and this string works well for me after starting with Syn Gut then transitioning to Wilson Sensation...

Hey guys, I currently play with the Wilson Blade 98 16x19 2015 version. If you know your Blades, this one was seen as quite stiff as the newer generations have become more flexible by each gen. The stiffness as well as the open string pattern, weight and head size made me love this racquet...

Can anyone recommend the best recent, available shoes you've tried for relatively narrow heels but a medium/wide toe box (width wise)? I find many shoes are unstable in the heel area and my feet tend to move around at the back. However, if I go down size(s), the toe box becomes far too tight...

Hello guys, In the winter I've been playing with the MSV Focus HEX 1.10 gauge at 24/24 on a Gravity Pro. I can say the string has been holding for 4h (after 6h it had a 21 tension transforming it in a trampoline) and my peak game was in the first game. I'm no expert in tennis theory and...

Dear members, First let me give you a background about myself. I am from Sri Lanka and I am 37 years old, 5'6", weighing 180 pounds. I went for tennis coaching for around 6 months in my junior days, played around 2-3 competitive matches in school. After an injury I stopped playing and started...

Hi! I recently broke both my Wilson 97 Pro Staff ~2014 model (the ones before they put countervail in them), and am looking for something similar. I tried the newer PS97 rackets but I don't like the way the countervail changed the way they feel. I've also tried the new Wilson Blades, but it...

Hello everyone, First something about myself. I'm currently 20 and I've picked up on playing tennis again about a year ago. I didn't play for multiple years before that. Played 8 years in total. I'd say my style of play is somewhat of an defensive all court player. I prefer playing with topspin...

Since I can't demo racquets here I would be happy to get some recommendations on a new racquet choice Didn't play for many years, and started to play again recently but feeling pains in my arm and shoulder with my current racquets. About me: I'm 37, former open level player, aggressive...

I've been playing with the Yonex vcore pro (290g) for about two years now and looking to switch to a more solid / stable racquet. I'm considering the babolat pure aero and Wilson pro staff rf97. But I'm open any suggestions. Some info about me, Play style - aggressive baseline, decent serve...

After a multi-year absence, I'm picking up tennis again. I still love my Prince Tour Diablo Mid for its smooth feel and precise control, but I've been catching up on how racquets have changed while I've been off court, out of curiosity. It looks like many new materials are targeting a more...

I'm looking for the best tennis podcasts out there for my commute to work. Let me know what your go-to podcast is for all things tennis-thanks!

Hey guys! How are you? Could you help me deciding which racquet to pick? I cant demo them because I am from Argentina. Which one do you like most?

Resting up after an arduous catch up with Uni work, month off, playing Tennis at my local club and just lusting to play a Tennis game also. It's 18 pounds on Steam and I'm considering it, should I?
