Best New Racquet Line for Today's Fast Paced Game - Which Company?

[fujitsu77]

Which company do you think has come out with the best new racquet line for today's game?

Wilson - [K]Factor

Prince - Speedport

HEAD - Microgel

Yonex - RDS

Dunlop - Aerogel

I haven't really tried any of those racquets, but I heard the K-Factor is similar to a nCode.

 

[fujitsu77]

wow, many people seem to like the kfactors.

Personally, I don't think that they're that great (the only good one is the k90, the others are pretty bad).

Going to stick with my Dunlop's...

In reality though, the technologies grow on us all. It's about finding a racquet you like and sticking with it, not buying it's newer younger brother just because that's what the companies want. I am going to be using my M-fil's as long as I can get them...

I still think Ncode line is a contender.

 

[fujitsu77]

I agree with all of you when you say that tech doesn't really matter, all that matters is finding the right racquet for you.


I just want to see which one of the "new" lines is considered popular with other TT members.

But I agree, tech doesn't really matter (ex. the POG)

i think babolat is best for the "fast paced" game....not my main stick but its known to be a power stick

Too much in the Microgel line has yet to be seen. I'm waiting to vote until the Microgel Prestige comes out. As far as those speedports go... hold on... I have to go vomit.

I have to agree w/ you on the speedports

As for Microgel, they are VERY SOLID racquets. My vote would go to them.

K Factor is probably the best, if u really good kfactors will keep up easily.

Personally its all Dunlop for me.

 

[dave333]

I still like the babs and ncodes for today...no really good racquets for bashing forehands and smacking serves.

 

[insiderman]

GREAT post and one that has potential good aspects for discussion...however, and not that I'm a Fan, how can you not mention Babolat? The simple #'s they have on the Tour, among junior players globally...seems to make them the logical 'pick'...polls are too limited - this post has potential if the discussion can evaluate (good or bad) why players of all levels, are generating toward a 'X' type frame...

 

[Noveson]

How do you talk about fast paced game without Babolat?

 

[tennis_hand]

if you talk about the whole line, but not a single racket, I will choose Yonex RDS.

As mentioned above, KFactor only got a good K90. All the rest can be considered (K)rap. The N95 is better than the K95.

 

[DarkSlayerX]

kfactor 90 all the way!!!!!!

 

[Bundey]

This is gonna sound dumb, but what is POG?

 

[fujitsu77]

The reason why I didn't put Babolat on the list is b/c I assumed that they would be considered the "best" for a fast paced game. Thus, I wanted to know which companies besides babolat were popular. This being said, I think we should just ignore the pole and continue the discussion with our posts .

Tecnifibre texileium

Tecnifibre texileium

Does technifibre really allow you to generate that much power?

Also, for all those who say yonex is the best for today's game, why?

I just don't think yonexes provide the spin/power of the PD/ME that makes it an attractive choice for a "fast" game.

POG = Prince Original Graphite

K Factor racquets are also nCoded.

 

[ss2miraitrunks]

Volkl DNX ftw

 

[fujitsu77]

Volkl DNX ftw

I really don't see that many people usins Volkls

 

[phucng_10]

K Factor racquets are also nCoded.

Some, not all.

i find technifibre to offer a great balance of controlled power, making it a great racket for any game.
