So this is my first post sorry re length.. I played college tennis to about 5.5 level 15 years ago probably 5.0 now - I'm now 36 and getting more serrious again playing lots of tournaments. Had been using dunlop bio 200 since it came out 6/7 years ago. I've just tried the speed 360 pro and WOW! After one hitting session with it, I beat a player I've never even won a set against (and played about 15 sets in last 6 months) 61 61. I can't believe the improvement on spin power and how much bigger the sweet spot is - find its much more manouverable so im not late as much. I particularly love the put away on a slow ball which i struggled on with the dunlop due to high weight and very low power. It's strung at 53. I can play an all court game - often serve volley on the 1st serve or look to attack the FH. I hit a lot of top spin on both sides - 1 handed backhand. The dramatic improvement has led me to think is there another racket out there that could provide even more improvement? Or could I add some lead / silicon.. it feels light to me and I feel stability could be improved a little for hard hitting exchanges. Thinking aeropro tour. I also see lots of similar standard players using the blade 98 18x20 and radical mp/pro. Any thoughts or suggestions would be most helpful. I want to find a racket and stick with it for 3-5 years. The dunlop stung was 357 - the head strung with over grip and dampener is 340.
