Slightly more power and manuverable Gravity Pro

[nath_tennis]

Hey All,

I love the stability, control and plow of my 2023 Gravity Pro, but I do find that in long matches and the heavy swing weight makes my OHBH and volleys not as sharp as they need to be.

The Gravity Tour I thought light be good, except it loses it HL balance due to the thicker beam. I've played with Prestige's and v8 Blade, but I'm not a good enough player and need a 100 sq head.

Blade 100?
Pro Staff X?

Are there any other sticks which would fit?

Thanks experts!

OHBH you say? Pro Staff X. Try it. It may require some time to adjust. You get Pro Staff adjacent precision with a little more power. Hit flat??? You wont like it.

I like the ones you suggested to yourself with added weight, namely just going grav tour

Also the following: white out 305 16, 6.1 100 (prefer this to the X), and strike 100

I think Gravity Tour and Speed Pro can be good to demo. And also lookout for the Gravity 98 next year. Customized Gravity MP maybe.

Prostaff X or maybe Angell React 99 18x19

If the Gravity Pro is your starting point and you are looking for slightly more power and maneuverability, Speed Pro and Gravity Tour make a lot of sense. Can always tail weight the Tour a bit to make it more headlight.

this seems like the easiest answer if you liked the tour otherwise

Speed Pro seems a natural fit.
5g lighter, static
Generally lower swingweight compared to the Gravity.

The new Prince Phantom 305X 18x20, probably pretty close (have not played it) just going off specs.
Several Prince racquets, honestly, they've some fine 100-header options.

Gravity Tour until the Gravity 98 is released next year.

Is it confirmed Gravity 98?18x20 or 16x19 pattern?

all I know comes from this thread:

Head Gravity 98 16x19 (Coming in 2025!)

Hello guys, we have learned that next year we'll have gravity 98 16x19 from tw's last video. This means Head's 98 silo will be more crowded than ever. Radical mp, radical pro, prestige pro, prestige pro 16x19, extreme tour, boom pro and as a last gravity 98. Having lots of options always good...

I echo the Prince Tour 100P 18x20

Gravity pro has been my main racquet and lately I've been really enjoying with the Prestige MPL 2.0 with modded specs.

 

[nath_tennis]

Interesting, I have a 2021 Prestige Pro, which feels great but very hard to use. Did realise the MP has a thicker beam. How do you compare it to the Gravity?

 

[nath_tennis]

I really need to hit with one of these. Seems an under-rated raquet, will hunt one down.

Why not just add weight to the handle? You can either add lead under grip or swap it out for heavier leather.

 

[nath_tennis]

It’s a completely different frame to the Pro, so thinking it would be like switching to a whole new racquet.

If you don't mind an older racquet you could try track down a Head Youtek Speed MP 18x20. Same mold shape as the Gravity's. Slightly stiffer at 65RA, and lower swing weight (317) that you could add a little weight to.
