Great racket imo and underrated. It offers great maneuverability. Very light and it improves your racket head speed. Both topspin and slice are really easy to hit off the baseline. You can also generate a lot of pace on your serve with it.
I found taking balls on the rise and changing direction of the ball easy with this racket but you need a decent timing to be able to do that. I feel that my FH became a big weapon right now after playing with this racket.

Excellent, wonderful, etc.
it's as though it was engineered to make the perfect sound every time. The one thing I would say are that I seem to overhit quite a bit more than I did w/my Prince Black 100, but that's because it gives me so much power and pop  Really it's just awesome. Totally underrated.

Re: What tennis racquet do u use?
Head are the best company IMO, I go with them. Especially when you buy a western grip.

Depends how you play  Head has one of the widest ranges but I think that Yonex rackets fill many criterion The rackets weight balance means that you get much more control and head stability, plus, if you are like me, you can put weights on them and due to their shape it makes the racket swing through better. Also, you can get a lot of slice and timing is easier IMO. Good for volleys. It is harder to hit top spin as the strings not only do not accommodate it but you get less of ball on string. IMO though, a really good racket. I love my RDISs  I am getting VCores soon though

Re: What tennis racquet do u use?
Are there any type of Yonex racket you recommend?
I was thinking of Yonex or Babolat.

I like the RDIS 300 (Zheng Jie's racket until this year) but they are very hard to get in Australia as they are basically the same as the Vcores just a little beat heavier and more powerful. I have heard that the EZone rackets are good from a friend but I like the Vcores (Wozniacki's one to be specific [100S]) Babolat's are ok IMO, but they gave me tennis elbow

Ezone is good, I used Ezone 100 before, it is too light so I change to Ezone Xi 98, it provides comfortable and soft feeling but still have power, you would love it if you love hitting flat, you can check which racket is suitable for you with this figure, http://www.yonex.co.jp/products/imag...ets/matrix.jpg

Re: What tennis racquet do u use?

Re: What tennis racquet do u use?
Her racquet looks very nice.
I personally want my head to be between 100insq to 105insq.
Here's what I've narrowed mine down to:

Re: What tennis racquet do u use?
Tested out the Six.One and it had really good weight on shots. Two guys I know who hit with a lot of topspin and have great slice backhands as well love the Six.One.

I am curious about that new Dunlop racket, I have already ordered a 300 one series and will let you know how it is after it arrives.
