Aeropro vs Fxp Radical Tour vs O3 Tour

Rafa Nadal

Semi-Pro
Hi,
at the moment i play the HEad LM Prestige MP, very good racquet, love to serve with this stick, but i think when the outdoorseason on clay starts, the Prestige will not be the right stick for me.
So I decide to look for a new racquet, i found three sweet racquets:
Aeropro Drive, FXP Radical Tour,O3 Tour.
I played all three, and i like all three :p
But i must pick out ONE.
Whats your Favourit?

Just my take, the FXP Tour gave me shoulder problems after 2 hours of hitting. The Prince O3 tour was very nice, only complaint was no sound when you hit the ball.
Best Racket I have tried this year is the Wilson ncode 6.1. Very solid and stable, a little less power than the Prince O3 tour.
As a long time Head frame user, I have given up, instead of building playable frames; Head is going for gimmicks which hinder your game!
 
I haven't tried the Aeropro, between Head flexpoint and 03 IMO the head is a better racquet. It just play's better overall. But If your preoccupation is arm safety then go for the 03.
 
I played with a Ti Radical for 4-5 years and loved it - thought I'd play with Head for life. I needed a new racquet, so I tried both the Aeropro Drive and FXP Radical (all 3 of them). The Tour was too heavy, but I liked the mid. The only problem I really had with it was the unusual feel - it feels like it cups the ball as Head claims, but it just didn't feel natural... I never got the feel that I knew what was going to happen if I didn't hit the ball in the exact center of the racquet.

I tried the Aeropro drive right after after the FXP radical mid. I literally hit 10 balls and knew it was the racquet for me. Solid feel, good weight, and easier on the arm... Needless to say this was the racquet I ended up with...

The Aeropro Drive is not more arm friendly than a FP Radical........

Can't speak for the Arm, but it is a lot nicer on the shoulder. Many of us have bought the FXP tour, have suddenly developed shoulder issues.
I would chose either the O3 tour or the Aeropro Drive.
 
By specs APD isn't more arm friendly, but in practics it can be. Same for me, FP Radical Tour wasn't very nice on the shoulder, but I had no issues with APD (and not just 1h testing).

Have you tried FXP Tour since you had problems? maybe you were having a bad day, maybe you did a bad movement. I see you bashing this stick since a few months now, and I'm using it since last may without any problem. In fact, I love it.

For clay, have you consider the instinct? Andre played with it at Roland-Garros. My girlfriend have it and it's an awsome stick.
 
Sorry I wasn't more specific in my earlier post - I've played with the Aeropro drive for nearly 3 months and I haven't had any arm trouble. Granted I didn't play with the FXP Tour for more than about 4 hours, but for my game I think I made the right choice and would recommend the APD to anyone considering it.

Not bashing just explaining my experiences with the FXP Tour. Used it twice, both with sore shoulder. Loaned it to a 5.5 player, he said his arm and shoulder hurt and gave it back. Sold the frame, it was junk.
Many others posted similar problems, maybe you got a different version or later edition.
I used the Ti.Radical Mid for 4 1/2 years, loved the frame, but the new versions of Head products in my opinion are junk.
 
If you are not in shape, any 12+oz racquet can make your shoulder sore, especially if your form isn't perfect.
The FXP TOUR racquet is not a tweener at ALL and if you wouldn't use a Wilson 6.1 Classic or similar heavy competition-ready racquet... then stay away.
But don't blame the racquet... blame your lack of training.
The FXP Tour is VERY flexible and not prone to causing shoulder injuries.
But if you prefer lighter racquets, go for it.... but bashing the FXP Tour because you can't handle it is ridiculous.

As you can see I am also very tired of the "shoulder hurts" comments... Sure, if a racquet "causes" an injury it is a valid point for consumers to know, but just because you are not fit enough to handle it is not a reason to CONSTANTLY bring it up. Just use the regular Radical or Instinct or something..geez!

My current frame weighs 12.5 ounces, so it was not the weigh which caused shoulder issues. If you read others remarks on this frame, it is pretty well documented the FXP tour casues shoulder and arm issues.
I think it is the design of the so called cupping which causes the problem. If you do not hit the ball dead center, then pressure is put on the arm and shoulder. I like a racket with a higher sweet spot, more power.
The Ncode 6.1 95 is a much better frame, and zero problems with my shoulder and arm.
Doubt Head will keep the hole much longer, as there have been a lot of complaints.
 
When I was using my Volkls I never had knee problems. But after switching to my FXP Tour, my right knee started swelling each time I play. Wow, direct correlation or pure coincidence? Coincidence because I switched to a serve and volley game after getting the FXP Tour, and this is putting more strain on my knees.

I have yet to see "official" documentation correlating the FXP Tour and arm/shoulder injuries.

Look back over the post for the last 6 months, many players besides me have posted about arm and shoulder issues. Don't really know what "official" means, but its official soon as I stop using the FXP tour, my shoulder problem went away!
I would not recomend this racket to anyone!
 
I played with both the O3 tour and FXP Rad Tour. for me the FXP Rad Tour is the better frame. I have had zero shoulder arm problems and love the racquet. It seems the racquet is gettng the same bad rap as the HPS 5.0 which I also played with, liked and had no problems with.

IMHO it seems the old case of if you have a bad experience with any product or service you tell 10 people but if you have a good experience with a product or service you tell very few. If you objectively look back at past threads on this racquet you'll see a fair amount of positive experiences, enough for me to say give the racqeut a good hard test drive.

I find the racqeut very string sensative. Polys just don't work for me in this racquet. I use Reaction 16g and am getting pretty good string life. 17g plus the open pattern just doesn't hold up. I think any 16g multi except maybe the ultra soft ones would hold up well.

Agreed, on all points.

Additionally, The customer feedback mentions shoulder problems in exactly 1 review of 19 - and that person realizes that they simply had to get used to the extra mass. And there's also a recent post from a guy who just had shoulder surgery saying that a flexpoint radical is easy on his injury.

Looks like someone is on a crusade. Which makes sense, because it is tennis racket after all. The future of the world is at stake.
 
Message groups are for people to express their experiences with products. After using Head rackets for over 12 years, can honestly say the Ti.Radical was a great frame, the FXP Tour is NOT!
Recommend trying one before you waste your money! I tested 3 rackets this year. The FXP tour, Prince O3 tour, and the Wilson Ncode 6.1 95. Of the 3, the Ncode was my top pick, second was the O3 tour. Only complaint on the O3 was the muted sound!

Have you tried the Volkl Tour 10 V-Engine Mid (93)? It really is an all round stick that is also easy on the arm. Can generate a huge amount of spin with that racquet, though slightly low on power, it's maneuverability allows it to comes up with great angled shots beyond reach.

Not advice just my experience! Guess I would be a little sensitive if I bought 3 too. Really depends on your level of play, at 3.0 might work OK, but at 5.0 and above, not many players choosing the frame.
Fortunately, I was smart enough to buy only 1 and sold it a couple of weeks later! The player who bought it has shoulder problems too, so he is not a fan either!

Oh so if we can't play the "my opinion is more valid than yours" game or the "lots of people agree with me game" - then we'll switch to dualing experts?

TW's own Chris ("5.0 baseline player") on the FP Rad Tour: "The weight and balance was a perfect fit for me, making this one of the few racquets I would not customize before using (others would include the Prince NXG Mid, Liquidmetal Prestige Mid and the Tecnifibre 325)."

And the same fellow on the o3: "I think Prince could have beefed this one up a bit without hindering maneuverability. I thought it was too light for a "Tour" model. While it's a good player's racquet as is, I think Prince could have gotten more performance from this one by taking a page from the beefier design of the HEAD Radical "Tour" racquets and the Pro Kennex PSE racquets."

I'm not sure why this matters so much to you. It's just a racket. You don't like it. Big deal. Isn't there anything else out there for you to care about?

To the original poster: demo all of them. You'll figure out which one you like right quick.

I'm using the APD currently and dig it alot. But my second choice would be the 03 tour. It's a little easier on your arm. Not as stiff.

Once you reach a level in tennis, you normally beef up your racket to your specs. Perfect racket to beef up weighs almost 12 ounces, and then you add the weigh where you want it.
I agree demo all the rackets, then decide! It does not matter to me which racket you play with, but the original poster asked a question, so I answered.
For me the racket was a big disappointment, expected more from Head and did not expect a sore shoulder!
 
do a search for user "barry" and "sore shoulder" ... seems like he has got a broken record to go along with his bum shoulder.

I sure wish we could play some of these "5.0 players" who talk so much on this board. I'm in VA barry, so if you want to see what a FXP Tour can do... let me know.

"Perfect racket to beef up weighs almost 12 ounces, and then you add the weigh where you want it." - barry
HA! Know you know what every high level player wants??? Total BS. Ask MOYA what he wants in a racquet and then ask SAMPRAS.... this was a ridiculous statement you made.

It is funny you mention it might be the FXP "cupping technology" that is causing the pain, because most people admit it is just a marketing gimmick and there is no cupping. It is just a regular old-school 12+ oz racquet. And that is why people who can handle it, like it so much.

Hey barry, show us a picture of you playing at a USTA 5.0 tournament... oh were you sandbagging at a 3.0? sure sure.
Oh... and take a picture of yourself in a sleeveless shirt so we can see those wimpy shoulders too! Woooo!

(i find rowing machine exercises and simulated rows with light dumbbells to be EXCELLENT workouts to help prevent sore shoulders, btw, but im sure Marius has probably already addressed this...)

ok, i will leave this subject and barry alone... however please try to keep the HEAD FXP Tour and Sore Shoulder posts to 10 a day please. Just tell people to use the search function.

(ADDING: i just skimmed your other posts barry. very enlightening. your experience is EXACTLY as I would have predicted. you used to play with a MUCH lighter HEAD Ti Radical... and wanted to try a less dense Radical. And you strung it up with a Poly hybrid.
Now there are many explanations for your sore shoulder... you were used to a much lighter frame unless you added 2oz to that TiRad... and a heavier racquet with Poly can definitely cause shoulder problems.... There are a MILLION threads on Polys and shoulder pain so it sounds like you are blaming the racquet for your shoulder problems when it was either just too drastic a change OR more likely, the POLY was doing the damage. POLY has hurt my shoulder when I used to use a full Poly stringjob and when it was strung up too tight. Very easy to cause damage with poly.
So you have helped identify 4 major issues.
1. Do not switch from an 11oz Radical to the 12+ oz FXP TOUR just because you want a 16x19 Radical... you probably won't like it.
2. Be careful with POLY... it can shred shoulders.
3. Don't blame HEAD FXP Tour for a) bad form b) bad string c) bad racquet change from lighter racquet )
4. Don't believe what ANY TW user says... go demo for yourself and pick YOUR best frame.

Like I said I used a Ti.Radical mid for 4.5 years, after adding lead tape and a Fairway leather grip it weighed 12.2 ounces. Very nice frame and one of the best rackets Head ever produced.
The Ti after doctoring weighed the same as the FXP Tour. So it was not the weight which was the issue. I used the same string as on the Radical and never had any shoulder problems.

By the way the Ti.Radicals I had 4 5/8 grip weight in at 11.8 ounces strung before adding lead tape. Since you never owned one, doubt you even know the weight.

It is your shoulder and arm, I really don't care what you use!
 
well ive used APD and just switched to 03 Tour. The 03 tour imo is better, it is less powerful but groundstrokes are better. The 03 tour looses out ever so slightly on serve but its almosst back to 100% (about 95% now) after adding abit of lead
 
I demo'ed APD+ and O3Tour this week. So let me just comment on these two rackets. APD+ is the one of the best rackets which comes with good power and great top spin. The top spin keeps the ball inside the lines all the time unlike other powerful rackets such as those Wilsons. My kick serves and top spin forehands were easily accessable. However, it lacks racket feels, so I couldn't hit my double back hand right. Most of my backhands went to the bottom of the net because I didn't know when to flip my wrists up.

O3Tour was just way too stiff. If I hit the sweet spot nice and early, the shots were good. But if I hit late or missed the sweet spot, my arm and shoulder hurt instantly. I had to put down the rackets only after 5 minutes of hitting. It is a nicely designed racket, but it is too stiff and hard to handle for my level of game. Maybe the O3White will fit my better.

I also demo'ed the Volkl BB10. It is the best among the three. It is just as powerful as the APD+, with less topspin access. However, the racket provide much more feed back upon hitting the ball. My backhand was better with the BB10 compare to APD+. Serves with the BB10 was also better.

Now I just need to get used to the extra lenght of the BB10 cuz I have been using standard lenght racket all along.
 
do you think that the o3 tour was stiff?? maybe de strings...what strings are in this demo???
the o3 tour is one of the most arm friendly raquets by today....the APD is not.
 
I think the demo all have the same Wilson string. I didn't know what specifically it is, but I think it is guage 16.

To me, the O3Tour was significantly stiffer than the other rackets. I felt like I was hitting the ball with a baseball bat. On the other hand, the APD+ doesn't provide any feeling/feed back. I felt like I was hitting with a foam stick. I can't imagine APD+ would hurt my arm/shoulder at all. It doesn't transmit any shock/vibration to my arm at all.

However, I am not an advance player. I'm a 4.0 high-intermediate player, so my expereince with the rackets may not be the same as the benchmark.
 
i love my apd i feel it works great for serves and groundstrokes and overall a great racket to hit with, and yet still fairy comfortable.

Umm barry, this is what TW racquet finder says about your old tiRADs.
Head Ti.Radical Midplus 98 10.75oz w/ STRING
Head Ti.Radical Oversize 107 10.8oz w/ STRING

So there is no way your tiRad weighed 11.8oz strung unmodified.
And I have briefly tried the TiRAD.. it is a nice light frame that I tried when hitting with a Brazilian junior. He was VERY good and his was unmodified and weighed in at 11oz w/ overgrip & dampener.

Anyway, you really don't know what your talking about on a lot of things so I think I just won't read any more of your post because proving you wrong is just time consuming and although I have led my poor little camel to the water, you just won't drink from the fountain of knowledge.

Seeing how I have 3 left, maybe I will send you a picture with them on the postal scale. You really should not talk about rackets you know nothing about, some of us use them, and the TW spec's are wrong. Do you even know how much a Fairway leather grip weighs? Did you know the weighs posted at TW are for the smallest grip size.
 
I have both the O3 tour and FXP Tour and have played with the APD.

Conclusion:- FXP is my favorite. It's for more advanced players. The results are remarkable. Excellent all round racket.

03 Tour is also an excellent racket but lacks the aggression of the FXP and is not as good on the slice, top spin and serve. But its a comfortable racket.

APD - plenty of spin and power but lacks feel and touch.

Thus, if you're more of an advanced player go for the FXP. It's GREAT...so stable and so much control.

I've had no shoulder or arm issues with it.
 
In regard to arm safety, in my opioion the HEad FP Radical Tour is a winner hands down compared to the APD. I have played with the Head for abut 4 to 5 mos. I have repeatedly gone back to the APD because I like how I win with it but several times I develope a prodrome to TE. The APD is a great stick if you have no arm issues. I have not played withe the prince O3 Tour
 
The more info, the better !!!

After reading all the messages on this thread, I'm again surprised how much different feeling people can get for the same racquet!!! It looks to me like every racquet is better and worse at the same time.

Anyway, I'm playing with APD+ now and demoed O3 Tour recently. For now, I prefer APD+ a little little little bit better than O3 Tour - three littles mean very little ;) . O3 Tour is muted and soundless - agreed. APD doesn't have enough feeling - agreed. Other than that, I'm pretty much satisfied with both racquets. Yet, although I can't be as specific as other people, I just feel APD+ seems to be better for me. Also, I have ordered FXP Radical Tour and RDX500 hoping to see which stick suits me best.

Any comments on APD, O3 Tour, Radical Tour and RDX500 from your recent experience would be highly appreciated.
