Reviews

I got a brief chance to hit with some of the Eye rackets, including the V.Lite 115 Control. You can watch the video below. I wish I’d been able to measure this racket’s balance point. It felt great on court, and felt a touch head-heavy, but then as I started swinging some of the other rackets I came to realize it’s probably much lighter in the the head than I originally thought.

Here’s Joey Barrington from Eye with an overview. He states that it’s a head-light racket.

    I had to report this:

    I spent the past 2 years playing with Tecnifibre carboflex 125 models and was really happy with the latest 2020 airshaft modell. I was previously a Dunlop player.

    A few weeks ago a new club squash player came in with the purple version of the Eye V.Lite 115, I gave it a shot and liked it a lot, I felt it was very similar to the Airshaft, though stiffer and less forgivable.

    So as I am always looking for the most friendly raquet for my body, as I am 55 and every squash session is a win. I ordered the latest modell, the white one used by Paul Coll.

    I played solo for 90 minutes today and it is HUGE.

    I was extremely pleased with the raquet stifness (it is VERY stiff) its overall power and maneuverability, its total weight is 150g and it is very head light (close to 35cm).

    The original Eye strings are very good and provide plenty of power and control. I will probably switch to my favorite strings (ashaway supernick zx, 27 lb) sometimes but for the moment it fits just fine.

    So I was able to hit the ball with lots of power and terrific conistency, the raquet speed makes it a delight for voley shots, fast or in general. The one downside is that it is not as forgiving as a standard tear drop raquet with vertical stringing, you really have to hit the ball within the sweet spot.

    After 60 min or so, I took the airshaft back and was shocked by its vibration compared the the V.Lite, as I really considered it as stiff raquet.

    I had the occasion to play a few balls with 2 of the latest Dunlop sonic core pro raquets, the pro 130 and the evolution 130. As you can guess my prefence goes with the pro 130 but it is nowhere near as stiff or maneuvrable as the V.Lite 115.

    So to summarize, If you are already a decent squash player, you like a fast front game, your prefence goes to head light raquets without sacrificing power or consistency, this is THE raquet, imho.

    Pierre, are the eye racquets in your 2018 roundup video new models, or just these ones back from 2016?

      Good question! They are the same 2016 rackets. I can see it was confusing for me to call them 2018 models, it would have been better to just label them the current Eye Squash Rackets.
