well time to find a new owner for my cx200s

not a bad frame by any means but it didnt do anything particularly well for me and i struggled a lot on my backhand slices and my backhands didnt feel confident.

in a nutshell the cx200 is a racket

So now that I've had some time to digest a bunch of the 2025 racquets, here are my rankings. This is all personal, of course, mostly based on which racquets I enjoy using the most.

1. TFIGHT 305
2. TFIGHT 300 (tbh I've mostly hit the 305 but they aren't that different tbh).
3. Pure Drive 100. Putting this at 3rd is slightly annoying because I don't think it was much of an update. The SX300T may eclipse it if I can dial in strings. O-Toro a bit launchy for now.
4. SX300T. Only hit 3 times and needed 5g of lead at 12 to become playable but boy is it playable.
5-tie. Whiteout V2 and Gravity 98. WO is easy to use against anyone. G98 I only like against players who can give me rhythm. If I'm not on my game this is a very punishing racquet.
7. Pure Drive 98. I would rather use a Blade. And I hate the Blade v9 (partially for the memes).

Still need some time with the Gravity Pro and MP, and the Yonex EZONEs. I also have all the new Rad's but cannot post till March.

The TFIGHT is switchably good for me. Much like the Rafa, the 305 unlocks shots that I can't hit with anything else. This stick accels with high RHS, taking balls early and changing direction on a time. Probably the best possible racquet for my 2HBH. Reminds me a lot of a modernized version of my Djokerized LM Rad MP.

I’ve been waiting for you to give us your rankings so far on the new racquets. The TFight & Solinco Whiteout were the two I was most curious on your thoughts. Looks like the TFight is the one to try first:) The Tfight 100 16x19 has definitely got my curiosity. 22.5 constant beam in a 100 sounds perfect.

Don’t think o-toro is a nice match for those open spin frames. Too soft and as you said launchy. I will try it in my 5G.

The 305 and 300 aren’t that different, even with the 18M vs 16M string pattern difference?

Maybe 5th as well? I initially hit the G98 and thought it was a way better fit for me, but since I've played it a few times and haven't found the same magic. Against Luca, who's Grav I first hit, I can rip pretty much every ball, because his shot production is quite consistent. Against other players I'm not always able to rip the shot and in those cases the 98 was harder to use than the Pro.

I’ve been waiting for you to give us your rankings so far on the new racquets. The TFight & Solinco Whiteout were the two I was most curious on your thoughts.

Yeah I'm incredibly curious about the 100. I don't feel like a "need" more power from the 98, like my ball speed with the 305 is pretty close to what I can get with my Rafa, but if I can find more power from the 100 I'd take it every day of the week.

Don’t think o-toro is a nice match for those open spin frames. Too soft and as you said launchy. I will try it in my 5G.
Yeah I'll need to go to something with less bite I think

The 305 and 300 aren’t that different, even with the 18M vs 16M string pattern difference?
They play differently of course but ultimately they are the same frame. I find the frame geometry to make more of a difference to playability than string pattern. With the 16M I just aim lower. With the 18M I aim higher. It's not like I have to adjust where I make contact on the strings or adapt to a new hitting feel or change my swing path.

Curious to hear your thoughts on the new TFights. From the TW videos that were released today, it sounds like they moved the weight away from the hoop. Did you feel much of a change?

And I get the Pure Drive sentiment, but I certainly feel like an improvement to comfort and feel is a significant update for the frame. It’s one of the most popular frames for a reason, you can’t change much but they were able to find a way to improve it in the most critiqued areas while maintaining what makes it successful. I think that’s noteworthy!

less hoop weight is noticeable. Hit the new and old back to back today, definitely a good change.

The PDs I hit back to back as well without noticing much of a change in feel. I agree there's a small change but its as subtle as they come. More subtle than the auxetic updates even

Whoa what

A modern classic counterpuncher frame is now easier to swing and also more powerful without losing its identity? I might be in trouble

A sad story hopefully close to the end. With the release of the RF frames, I purchased 2. I then purchased 2 Clash 98 V2's from TW when they went on sale. I purchased some Volkl 10 Evo's. I gave my Yonex EZone 100s to a friend with the caveat I might want them back. I then purchased some VCore 2020's. I'm so embarrassed that I haven't asked for the 100's back. I'm going to give away everything I purchased and re-purchase the new "improved" Yonex EZone 100. I am bound and determined to kick this affliction. maybe the purchased of the new EZone 100 will restore order in my universe!

Everyone please send some positive karma my way.

With all the talk about the new T-fights being released, I went ahead and got a close to new XTC 305 after hearing great things about it. And my knee isn’t even completely healed yet to test the Pure Strike 98 2024 that came in before the new year… Oh well

Not exactly what you're asking, but my racket of choice for over a year now is a pro stock 27.25 inch Radical MP.
the differecnes between them seem so minor, thinner beam and 10g heavier

musch like my thoughts on tf40 315 vs 305, i dont see much reason to use the 315 unless you like playing with frames stock. i was wondering if that was the case with the Radical Pro/MP as well

The Radical Pro is much more demanding frame than MP. I love the thinner beam & heft of it though. But the sweet spot is the smallest i’ve probably played with. String really low to increase the sweet spot & add lead to 3&9 if it’s under spec enough to do so.

anyone have any strong opinions on Radical MP vs Pro? in either direction?

i would prefer a narrower beam but its not the huge of a difference but the 305 MP weight is just so much more attractive

I like both. Eventually settled on the MP, even though my taste is usually thinner beams and flexier sticks. Pro was great but you really do work pretty hard to get pop with it. Did force me to take big cuts at the ball, which was probably for the best in terms of training. But for actual matches, the MP is just as controlled, has more pop, and both returns and volleys better. Plus, since it starts much lighter, you can actually customize it easily without getting too crazy with the mass.

Insane wind storms in Los Angeles today -- despite power lines blowing down and fires in the Palisades, I sauntered up to the court for a friendly singles match. Unfortunately the wind aiding one side and blocking the other wasn't the only issue. My feet felt like they were in cement blocks the whole time. I also couldn't find the sweet spot in my PSVS so I played the second set with the Staff, which did a lot better with forgiveness and not launching. (Plus it just has a fresher string job). After losing the first set 6-2 then being up 4-1 in the second, my shoulder gave out. I think I rushed back a little too fast trying to play seriously, and my rotator cuff wasn't up to snuff. Had to call it quits. As I zipped up the bag I realized the biggest error in playing today.

It's Tuesday.

Had an awesome indoor 1 on 1 hit tonight. Cycled thru the Angell 100, 2012 PD Roddick, 351.1, PSVS, and the newcomer was an old Boris Becker DNX 11L

The Becker is a 98in black and orange, 295g, 16x19 strung with 1.23 Durafluxx at 47lbs. Was a very "Toyota Corolla" experience - which is more compliment than snark. Felt like an older Radical. Low, but not no, power. Good spin, feel, stability, everything was a 7.5 out of 10.

I spent the most time with the Angell 100. Now strung with 1.28 Pure Rush at 50lbs. This thing continues to impress. I also tried to apply the tips in Karue's new video - which is 1000% worth watching.

He advocates that the ball your receiving determines how you should ideally hit the ball. Balls coming down off the apex of the bounce should be hit back with shape and spin, balls still rising should be driven thru with pace.

So simple, but for me it felt like a freeing revelation. Since I had my forehand technique rebuilt in 2021 I had been trying to shape everything. Being given "permission" to drive thru balls with a flatter swingpath produced outstanding results. Shots didn't feel forced when applying this concept. And this was day zero of doing it. Makes me very excited for what practicing it for a whole year will do!

I've only played with the Rads and Prestiges back to the Graphene 360s but it's my understanding that the IG Prestige Pros are all great but much more demanding in terms of the sweet spot and power generation. They stiffened them up significantly with the Graphenes in order to increase forgiveness (to the extent that they were too stiff) and have been softening them up ever since with all their dampening tech, though they're not as raw as the IGs.

Anyway, 2023 Rad Pros swing and play nice but don't really offer much over the MPs, which seems to be consensus all around. That said, I'd still pick another one up just for the joy of thinner beams. But not worth doing this for match play for me. The MP is already plenty controlled and is by no means a boomstick.

I hear you and I don't know about retail, but I don't have any sweet spot, nor power generation problem with the prostock version, the 293.1 in Prestige PJ. It's the most powerful controlled racquet I've seen.

It's nice to hit against a younger coach, like today- I can unload my FH.
At the end both of us were tired and my Apple watch deemed me worthy of a new VO2 max reading...

It's a great video for sure. He has great heuristics for reading the ball. Second this recommendation to watch unless you play me this year

But aren't our coaches giving us said permission during lessons?
For the last dozen years my coaches have been young and more then happy to defend.
Sure for the likes of us that have power, they try to teach us more control, yet still...

The older prestiges (microgel - ig) weren't that soft though. The ones from 2020 onwards are softer than those old ones.

really wish the speed pro and gravity pro were both 305 frames but oh well
I didn't realize the speed pro wasn’t 305..

I want to measure this frame today but it didn’t swing heavy enough for me to notice the weight much, though most of my frames are already around 313g unstrung so that’s probably why. 305 would be nice only for the ability to add leather and keep it at spec for me.

Speed MP being 300 and Pro being 310 is odd. But I guess they don't want a more controlled "Pro" 18x20 frame stock to be "light"

Gravity Pro starting at 315 really makes it difficult to make the leather and lead specs. my 305 frames end up 340-345 strung as it is

I totally get that. It definitely makes it tougher to get to spec if you don't want too much. I'm thinking about adding leather to the demo just to see how it would feel, and of course putting back the base grip before I return - that's the only way I'll really know if it's too much.

Especially when their QC is so bad on top of it. I was thinking of trying the Speed MP which both were 306-307 static & 308-309 unstrung swing weights.

im exploring a ton of 16x19 frames so I think i will be on the round string end of the spectrum and getting away from the Solinco world

currently Lux Element is one of my favorites and im gonna be trying out Hawk Touch and Hawk Power

They play differently of course but ultimately they are the same frame. I find the frame geometry to make more of a difference to playability than string pattern. With the 16M I just aim lower. With the 18M I aim higher. It's not like I have to adjust where I make contact on the strings or adapt to a new hitting feel or change my swing path.
I'm behind on my YT tennis review vids so have no clue what people are saying about the new Tfights but I've had the 305 and 300 for the previous 2 gen and they played totally different. The 305 was much more stable but had a high SW and was sluggish and tough for me to generate RHS. The 300 was the opposite. I did add some lead to make it more stable but it was one of the easiest racquets for me to swing and easily accelerate and generate RHS. I was actually thinking of maybe picking the 300 up again. Only drawback to the 300 was I couldn't produce a really heavy ball with it.

So simple, but for me it felt like a freeing revelation. Since I had my forehand technique rebuilt in 2021 I had been trying to shape everything. Being given "permission" to drive thru balls with a flatter swingpath produced outstanding results. Shots didn't feel forced when applying this concept. And this was day zero of doing it.

I have been struggling with my FH for the past 4-6 months (I was injured for a good part of that but before and after was still struggling). What I realized in my last match was I was no longer hitting through the ball. I was focusing so much on getting spin and net clearance I had forgotten how to drive through the ball. Once I started doing that my FH started coming back to me.
