DNX vs Power Bridge

[1hbhBUX]

Question for Volkl users. The Power Bridge reviews are so much better than the reviews of the DNX frames, even though the specs are very similar (10 mid and midplus). Is the Power Bridge factor that much better? How do these really compare?

DNX 10 just feels harsh, pretty much whatever strings you use.

PB mid 10 is just ever so slightly heavier but much easier to whip round, despite the slightly higher swingweight.

I found the PB mid 10 much much better on serve, volleys, slice and angled passes.

I guess the biggest difference is the comfortable feeling of the PB10.

With serves being more effective, slices biting and keeping lower and lots of confidence on volleys I much prefer the PB10 in doubles.

Some headlight rackets are just so light I have no idea where the racket head is, but I have never had that problem with the PB10. I use 8g of lead in total at 10 and 2, which is much less than I have gone with on K90s etc

I still find a few shots I hit with a PB10 just don't have anything on them as if I have hit on a completely dead part of the stringbed. I think it is that I usually get so much pace and the racket feels so sweet, that when you hit one a little off, you really notice the difference. Maybe I will go for something like Champions choice next restring. At the moment I am using Lux Fluor at 52lbs, and to be honest I don't like the string.

Thanks for the comments. Interesting how different frames can feel even when the specs look the same.
