This is for those who've used the APD but for some reason (maybe too stiff, powerful etc.) didn't like it. What racket did u switch to and what improvements did you notice?
nblade has too much SW for my taste
It's not super for volleys but give it a try if you are looking for a baseline stick, the sw definitely helps with groundstrokes especially for a light stick like the nblade. It hits solid.
I stopped using the APD because I used full poly with it and it had NO feel at all. I still loved the results (spin!) with it though, but it felt like a toy.
POWER or CONTROL... the eternal dilemma!
