Verdict
The classic black octagon that made shaped poly famous—heavy spin and firm control if you already swing big; stiff, not free power, and not Rafa’s exact 15L bed.
The gold-standard natural gut—TW-perfect power and comfort scores, legendary feel and tension hold—$65/set or $35 half-set for the hybrid mains Court List was missing next to ALU / RPM / Hyper-G.
Dunlop’s teal/yellow spin 100—TW topspin 9.1, $250 street, the empty-brand Aero/VCORE alt Court List was missing—not the first spin demo for most, but a real primary if you want shape cheaper and a touch more directed than yellow Aero.
