I’ve been using this racquet for around 8 months now and I have to say it’s the best one i’ve ever used. It swings super smoothly and cleanly, and on impact there is low vibration but it’s not a dead feel like (imo) the dunlop precision elite. lots of power, good even balance and its weight gives it good power, but it’s not head-heavy like the ali farag racquet so it’s very manueverable. I think head hit the sweet spot of all racquets with this one, and I highly recommend. Imo the 120 just doesn’t have enough power with no improvement in manueverability.

What is the durability like? Currently using a Dunlop Precision Ultimate but want something with more power and better balance

Broke my first one this month after I bought it in around december or november? It only broke because I was pissed and I hit it against the floor pretty hard, but I’d imagine that if I had hit it by accident on the wall once it would’ve cracked. It “broke” in the sense that the frame cracked but it didn’t shatter.

btw,I still think that this is the best racquet ever made

Is a stiff frame ? Or does it have a slight flex ? Balance point ?

Is this similar to the dunlop hyperfibre evolution pro / revelation, or the tecnifibre carboflex 125s? Probably not honestly.
Omar Mosaad and Mostafa Asal use it I think. It looks pretty slick. Any feedback?
