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 dry, dusty overgrip that still works when your palm gives up in the third set.
The Blade that finally keeps up with modern club pace without ditching the feel that made the line famous.
