Reviews
Here’s my video review of the Revelation Pro:
Product Notes
This is Ali Farag’s racket for 2017. It appears similar to the Dunlop Aerogel 4D Max, but I heard from Dunlop that it’s a new racket (new mold) for 2017. It was released as part of the Dunlop Hyperfibre+ range of Dunlop squash rackets.
Thanks to Simon, Alex and Sherif for the tips!

I bought this racket and that’s a very good surprise. The dealer said they are not selling that much so I had a very good deal on it, why not give it a try ? I used to play with harrow vibe, a very different racket, lighter but head heavy too…i adapt to it very quickly. Touch and feel is great but the power you get from it is fantastic ! I re-string it with green tecnifibre 1.2 @ 10/11 kg.

You mean your racket tension is 22 -24 lb (10-11kg) only. I never thought that is suitable for squash racket – too low. If this is correct, then I will try 11kg.

Hi
I have been playing squash now for I guess 2 decades. I also use Dunlop, the Ali Farag racket.
I use 23lbs for my stinging of all strings 1.14 to 1.18 and 24 lbs for a thicker string of 1.25.
At 23lbs, I get the best power and control. Its the best tension to be on. The ball gets a lot of trampoline effect and you also get control : send the ball where you want to.

Does anyone have an idea which squash string is Ali Farag using ?

This racquet is a tear drop correct? However, when I compared it to my Dunlop Elite (Gaultier) it was really close in shape – in fact it was closer to my Elite racquet than some of the other tear drops (I find some tear drop faces to be really small). Is this sort of a hybrid between a tear drop and a traditional shape?
Pierre says

Yes teardrop. That’s interesting, if I can get the Elite and the Revelation Pro in the same room I will take a picture. The Elite is advertised as 500 cm sq and the Revelation Pro as 490.

I ended up getting a few of these Farag models. After 2 weeks of hitting its my favorite racquet I’ve had to date!! I have learned that a head heavier racquet suits me alot better.
Previous models I have had:
Eye 120 Control (newer version)
Dunlop Precision Elite (2013 Gaultier Model)
Technifibre Carboflex 130

Hi there David
I used more or less the same rackets than you.
Can you perhaps tell me if the Dunlop is maneuverable and easy to use in the back corners, if possible compared to the Technifibre 130?
kind regards
Danie

What strings is Ali Farag using in his revelation pro? I know he used to use 305 but in recent pics with new racket sting looks black. Just wondering if anyone knew

the main problem i have with dunlop is the factory strings are so horrific – you have to cut them out straight away. do you re-string your racket or give the factory strings a bash?

Just ordered the 2x racket + bag bundle of pdhsports and am looking forward to trying it. It’s a bit of a gamble ordering new new rackets online but it sounds fitting to my style of play. Are they known for being durable? I’ve never used dunlop but my current Gray’s Light Blue Classic feel amazing but they seem to crack in the exact same spot (12:00) after little impact. I’ve replaced 4 this year alone and it’s getting a little frustrating. I hope this racket delivers! Thanks for the review!
