Is the Diadem Nova FS 100 a good racquet to grow with and not outgrow from?

I have been playing tennis for 1 year now, and I am a confirmed 3.25 player. I have a goal of reaching 4.0 in several years. I have been trying around with different racquets, and I officially want to pick one and "set it and forget it" so I can just focus squarely on technique instead of gear. I am looking for a racquet that I can use until the handle falls off or the frame is destroyed. I am ready to just choose a racquet and not look back.

I recently discovered Diadem, and I had no idea that they were an American brand company. I love supporting made in America products, and I am interested in the Nova.

I will eventually play test it myself, however, for those that are more experienced with racquets, do you think that this racquet would be a good racquet to grow with up to and through the 4.0 level?

Yep, the Nova is basically a more comfortable and slightly more controlled Pure Drive. Very under-exposed and underrated frame. IHMO actually, it's better than the Elevate, as the string spacing is smarter.

I would just customize to bring the recoil weight up to what you need, and have at it!

At least demo it if you can. It's the racket I've been using for 2 years now. Beats a lot of other tweeners with its 24.5mm beam width. Keep in mind, there's going to be new Nova coming out very early 2024. Maybe within Janurary. The new Nova, like the new Elevate, will have Kraibon added in it.
