How would this racket compare to Prince airstick 130? Obviously it’s a bit lighter in weight, but in terms of how it plays would it be similar?

Another near approximation of a classic Prince Powerring.
Unsquashable has the Harrity racquet, which has a very similar appearance.
Too bad they don’t seem to exist in the US. At this point, I wouldn’t consider buying a new Prince, but I’d be tempted by either of these.

Good on him. He had a nice comeback season and looks to be still capable of playing with the rest of the England squad.

The only downside being that he has to wear those awful Karakal shirts! I do agree though, he had a good season and it’s nice to see him playing well again.

Tom Richards has signed a big deal with Karakal and looks to be using this racket.
