Semi-Pro
So, my brother has been playing with unmodified i.Radicals for nearly 20 years and is now looking for something similar, but more forgiving, as he’s getting older and starting to feel a little like he’s needing to use a lot of energy on every shot. He’s a 4.5 aggressive baseliner who plays with a lot of topspin and is constantly seeking to dictate the points. OHBH.
I had him playtest the 360+ Radical MP, but he didn’t like it - said his timing was off and that he was shanking way more than usual.
I thought this was weird, as - at least spec wise - the frames should be somewhat similar regarding weight and SW, but it turns out that this isn’t the case - the i.Radical has a 297 strung SW according to the TW databse, which I think might just be the lowest ever for a Radical MP.
I cheated and tried the Similar Racquets tool, but nothing currently available seems to come close. Bumping the SW up to 320 I got the Microgel Radical MP, but that’s hardly more forgiving…
Any ideas?
