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.
A fast midplus that helps rec players take the ball early without feeling like they borrowed a tour stick.
Yonex’s club-player control stick—surgical 97 aim, buttery FlexCon pocketing, and enough spin to keep full cuts honest.
