[caribbean77]

Hi, this is my first post here in this big tennis community!
I would like to have some advice to choose between this 2 racquets, my level of tennis is intermediate, full swing, topspin, and one handed backhand, my style of play is a base line player, only go to the net if neccesary.
My actual racquet is Head Microgel Radical MP (18x20) and Im looking for a racquet that will help to get more topspin.

the 300 plays very similar to rad. But with open pattern, the 16x19 is a different racket altogether.

Ok, thanks for your reply!, and wich are the main differences of these two racquets (power, spin generation, etc)?

thanks!

you need a faster swing to get the same power and spin with the 315g Vs 300g

Both racquets are L5 right?

Look at the weight and especially the SW differences.
Note the 5 points difference in flex.
Can you swing faster than you currently are?
Do you need more SW than your MGRadMid? Can you handle more SW and weight?
Would it be better to go for the lighter racket that is already stiffer than your MG, and weight it up if you need it?
If you want more spin, go for thinner poly and soften the tension another 5-8 lbs.
