SV98 Question for Hannah

[prjacobs]

Hi Hannah,
Your spin numbers with this frame are a lot higher than with your Pure Aero. Can you talk about the spin and launch angle this frame creates? We're both long time APD users. Can you compare the spin to the 2013 APD as well? Lastly - how was the power on serves?
Thanks, Paul

prjacobs,

The SV98 is very fast and whippy. This definitely makes it easy to generate a lot of spin from the baseline. Although the spin potential for the SV98 is high, it did not necessarily feel this way. At contact especially I was struggling to feel that spin coming off my strings and felt a brassy, disconnection from a lot of my shots. Compared to the APD, I feel extremely connected and in control, knowing what to expect from every shot with more than enough spin to complement my style of play.

Hitting serves with the SV98 was probably my favorite shot on this playtest. Good amount of power, but even more noteworthy is how fast I was able to swing through every serve.

Thanks,

Hannah, TW

Thanks, Hannah. Can you compare the SV98 with your new frame of choice, the new Pure Strike?
