Verdict
America's default can, the official ball of USTA Leagues for about $3.50 a can by the case, but it's priced for volume and plays like it, with reviewers saying it fluffs and goes flat in a set or two.
The lighter version of the Ultra 100, at 280 g unstrung and swingweight 310, with easy power and spin for improving players, but it runs out of stability against heavy balls and costs full flagship money.
Yonex’s club spin flagship opposite Pure Aero—Ruby Red 100 that loads the ball with snapback, pockets more than it punishes, and belongs on the short demo list if Aero feels too boardy.
