Good Balance

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a Blade pro 98 and this one is better for me.

Powerful Racket

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this one to replace my old racket. I like it because its weight is perfect. Compare with my old racket, this one is heavier and help me bounce the ball more heavily

Great Racket As All Know

Good accuracy and precision. Good feeling of swing. The best ever! My favorite racket. Feels better than v13

A Poor Replacement For Prostaff 97 V13

My ProStaff 97 v13s reached the end of their natural lives. They were outstanding rackets. Solid and stable, offering power and control for a 4.5-5.0 player. I was misled into thinking the ProStaff 97 v14 was the appropriate replacement racket. On paper, that made sense given the identical specs (unstrung weight, length, head size, balance). However, the new "technology" that Wilson introduced for the v14 ruined the racket. Compared with the v13, the v14 feels less substantial while being slower through the hitting zone. Put another way, its "lightness" does not make it faster. It steals power, rather than amplifying, or even preserving, power. It's the worst of all worlds.

Dump String Mapping, Make A 16x19 And A 18x20

In my opinion the string mapping is the only thing bad about this racket. I play with poly at lower tensions and for me the launch angle is very inconsistent due to the diference in string spacing if you hit just a bit off in the sweet spot. Or give us a 320g version of the Six.One 95 18x20 which is the best racket i ever played but kills me after an hour.
