Should you shortlist it?
At 285 g with a 107 sq in head, this is worth trying for easy handling and help finding the ball.
The trade-off
The larger head and slightly longer frame can feel less compact at net. Confirm its 27.2-inch length before buying.
What to compare in a demo
Try returns, serves and volleys as well as rallies. Check your swing late in a session. Use similar strings and tension when comparing frames.
Alternatives to consider
- Yonex EZONE 100L · 8th generation — a similar choice; 285 g and 100 sq in. A lighter route into the EZONE range.
- Wilson Ultra 100 · v5 — a similar choice; 300 g and 100 sq in. A power-oriented 100 sq in club-player frame.
