Who it is for

Advanced players who value connected feel and directional control with some spin access.

Why it works

A thin 21 mm beam, flexible layup and 305 g give a controlled, plush response; the 16x19 adds spin over the 18x20.

Watch-outs

Modest power — depth has to come from swing speed and mass.

Strengths

Feel and control
Comfortable for a player's frame

Trade-offs

Low free power
98 in² sweet spot

Compatible player profiles
