Editorial assessment, not a hands-on review.
Should you shortlist it?
Compare this with the Blade 98 when you want a larger hitting area at a slightly lower nominal weight.
The trade-off
The larger head is not a guarantee of better results; compare depth control on your normal swing.
What to compare in a demo
Try returns, serves and volleys as well as rallies. Check your swing late in a session. Use similar strings and tension when comparing frames.
Alternatives to consider
- Head Speed MP · 2026 — a similar choice; 300 g and 100 sq in. A balanced all-court frame for confident swings.
- Wilson Ultra 100 · v5 — a contrasting response; 300 g and 100 sq in. A power-oriented 100 sq in club-player frame.
