Xamsa Crucible Incognito Review Transcript
I have a review for you today of the Samsa crucible incognito this is a frame that Samsa has put out before but now in the incognito a version previously the Samsa crucible I believe that was last I reviewed that one last year which you can check out the difference with the incognito is they’ve used a little bit better materials which are fun to say 100% Torre Japan carbon fiber and I think that that has basically a greater amount of strength in with a lighter material as as all material advances seem to be so they have used that in the construction of this racket so it’s meant to be a step above the original Samsa crucible it’s got this this cosmetic with a almost naked look to it it’s not glossy at all you can kind of see the graphite frame it’s exposed a little bit
I guess you could say the specs on this for one hundred and forty five and a half grams on my scale and thirty five and a half centimeter balance point so that’s pretty head light it’s got this hybrid type of head shape with so it’s got a bridge throat but it’s quite far down and you get quite a long frame out of that just to put it in perspective with another racquet that I’ve been using this is a full teardrop and you can see it goes almost down the length of a regular teardrop but it has that additional sort of stability point here it feels like a thinner kind of frame I’ll just show you against a different Samsa bracket this is the obsidian and it is it’s it’s minor differences but the the obsidian in the front has a little bit of a little bit thicker frame all around so the crucible is quite maneuverable in comparison feels light feels fast through the air the cosmetics on this are as usual Samsa black yeah somehow this one has turned out even better than normal I just think they’ve done a good job with the the content well it’s not that much contrast cuz it’s black on black but somehow it just looks even sleeker than normal and I’m normally a fan of the exam so simple branding but they’ve they’ve kind of just added subtle text along the sides here the X up here and the the traditional samsa up and down on the butt of the racket in terms of how this played this was I thought an excellent all-around racket it had a great combination of touch and power it came out reading quite headlight didn’t feel as headlight as that
When I was playing with it I felt like I had I felt like the racket felt light but still had helped in through the swing I just I really like the overall feel of it it’s a great it’s a great all-around entry for in the exams range the only quibble I had with it I remember on the other crucible racket I had some there was like torsion in the frame if you hit something slightly off-center and and this I could detect it faintly in this but it was if I’m doing it from memory I didn’t have the other one to test it directly against but it felt better with this racket and barely noticeable I was sort of looking for it and I think that’s because of the the construction is just maybe a little bit more a little bit stiffer as a result of the 100% tour a Japan carbon-fiber I’m talking about hitting when you’re hitting it hard is where you would feel that kind of any sort of torsion in the racket and kept it stable through those through those power shots and also gave it a crisp feeling on taking the ball in short so overall definitely pleased with this one a great job from Samsa thanks to Samsa as always for sending me this racquet to review thanks a lot
