I switched to Radical Pro literally yesterday. Smashed other Heads, Babolats, Yonex, Tecnifibre I playtested. Temperance in power, direct feel, perfect weight and balance plus open string pattern. I'm in love! Thank you Grisha for reviews that reassured me in my decision
Agree. Both Blade v9 98 16x and 18x and the 100 were solid. If you can't generate power then you won't like it. The 18x is a sniper precision. However, it's heavy as a sledge hammer. 45 mins of hitting and my arm is a noodle, timing messed up, difficult to swing. The 16x is lighter by maybe 5 grams. Then the 100 by even another 5. Every switch down in weight gives you less and less control. Unfortunately, I don't have Grisha's buff guns to enable playing longer.
Have you tried the Head Prestige Pro 2023 18x20? I went back and forth between the Blade v9 18x20 and the Prestige Pro......and after I demo'd both, I picked the Presitge Pro. With a gut/poly hybrid, it plays fantastic! And the cap grommets make it more stable than the Blade. No added lead tape required. Totally solid in stock form.
After you tested the 16x19 model, i recommended that you try the 18x20. The Blade 18x20 is my racket of choice since many years, but the Radical is indeed a great racket, too.
Thanks for the forecast! I need some advice: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). Could you explain how to move them to Binance?
the Blade and Radical are probably at the top of my least favourite racquets... but you're a far higher level than me and those definitely suit better players. The RF soft goods, however, may be my favourite tennis gear to come out this year. All the best for Christmas and 2025.
Hi grisha ...I play with the head prestige..mp for doubles, tour for singles ... So was happy to se the prestige in this list......really nothing comes close it plushed control of prestige...but recently I bought a pair of the latest babolat pure strikes 100 sqin 16/19..... surprisingly good....... especially whos predecessor were surprisingly bad... what's your take in the new pure strikes ...?
Hey bro, technically the gravity pro is a 2023 release so it shouldn’t be in the list anyways. However -- as. Gravity Pro user and lover myself, I’m super curious about the release of Tour 98 coming soon. Please tell me you will make a comparison between it and the legendary 2023 Gravity Pro?
Somewhat boring and even weird (3 different Heads). But man, this blade makes my Head Gravity 2025 dream crush. Anyway, nice to see you .. will use your code for TW now and second time in January ;) S Novym Godom 🎄🤗
One more ...... Don't u think that except fir zverev & rublev ... there's hardly any pros using the gravity & and tear drop head shaoe makes it clumsy to maneuver 🤔
Dude you lost all the credibility putting radical pro up there. That's an awful racket, definitely one of the worst out of 30+ rackets I hit past 2 years. A tad better than earlier version but still dreadful.
@@bavelcoSwitched to Radical Pro after trying to love Babolat Pure Drive and Pure Strike, Yonex Ezone 98, Head Gravity Pro, Tecnifibre TFight 305. Nothing came close in playtesting. Was 95% decided before seeing Grisha's reviews
@@mtczrnk The great thing about the radical pro is that it scores good overall, but it doesn't excell in 1 particular domain. It just does everything well.
The setting in this video is so beautiful
Right!!?
My favorite tennis channel of 2024. This one!
Mine tooooooo
Thanks so much!! Means a lot to hear that!!
😂😂❤ same

This is the one tennis channel I take inspiration from to become better, thanks a lot grisha and keep uploading! ❤❤
Thank you so much! This really means a lot to me!

I use the prestige tour - one could argue, that i'm not good enough to play that frame😂😂😂🙈
But absolutely love it😍😍
Number 1 channel for me this year
Thank you very much!!
Enjoying your videos, thx! Go and and play Percept 100D finally. This stunning racket still under the radar. For me its just perfect
That liquidmetal prestige paintjob is so good
I have to ask where did you film this video...stunning scenery.
Nice video yes we are slowly progressing to the the top 5 power rackets lol keep up the work I hope you win more tournaments grisha
Thank you so much!
there is a 18x20 version of the radical. you should try that
Will do!
Just to kind of stay with the theme of the video im gonna say my favorite is one that is not on the list but is on the table, the speed mp lol
I’ve been waiting for this one, you just made my Sunday🪄
Means a lot!! Thank you!!
My top 5 racquets I will be testing in 2025 :
1) extreme pro
2) prestige tour
3) regna 98
4) prokennex ace pro
5) v9 18/20
Have you tried artengo control tour TR960? Nice setup btw, love the view 💯
If you chose one of the Wilson Blade V9 and the Head Gravity Pro Auxetic, which one would you choose?
I’m guessing pure strike…let’s see if I’m right…bah I was off. Also, this has been out favorite tennis channel of 2024. Keep up the great videos!
Wooow thanks for honestly guessing and thank you so much for rating the channel so high! Really appreciate it!
Thanks for the forecast! I need some advice: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). Could you explain how to move them to Binance?
Please help me! Which sting or stings are the best for RF 01 pro racket and how kilos? Thank you 🇬🇷
Finally you put the TF40 🤣you might love the new cosmetics and the little changes they made😂
How is the tennis in Andora? Do they have many indoor courts?
They do! Many Spanish players from top 100 train there!
Wilson Blade, the MVP of this year. Came to the rescue on that tournament.
What about pure strike 16x19?
What about wilson blade pro
Blade 18x20, Prestige Tour, Tfight 305, TF40 315 18x20, Prestige Pro :) Also instead of Radical Pro I would put Diadem Elevate Tour :)
Thanks for sharing! Got you 😁
the Blade and Radical are probably at the top of my least favourite racquets... but you're a far higher level than me and those definitely suit better players. The RF soft goods, however, may be my favourite tennis gear to come out this year. All the best for Christmas and 2025.
Totally see your take on this. Makes sense. Definitely loving the bag 🫣
@1:50 LOL guilty pleasure. watching this holding my new unstrung speed mp legend
Hahahahah the speed mp legend, sexy!

Literally think exactly the same! Hated the previos. Love the new one!
I was sure you would consider the Babolat Pure Strike!
That's a good one for sure!
Tennis racket preferences are so personal. I take these reviews more as entertainment.
For sure!
Why are Technifibre racquets white?
😂😂😂
wilson blade number 1
Yes!

I'll definitely compare it in the review!
Yo Grish - I'm a Blade 18x20 user, what's the biggest difference between the Blade and the TF40 in your opinion?
They're actually very similar. I'd say it would come down to the feel of the racket. The TF is a bit more crisp and the Blade seems a bit softer to me
@@gladiatorstribe thanks my friend and happy holidays!
Yonex vcore??
The house in the background is on fire and Grish is filming a video about tennis racquets.... 😲
Yep, was to late when I realized it. Poor house, nothing left of it now 😓
@@gladiatorstribe 😁
What you play with a head gravity pro??? It’s becoming a meme how much you remind everyone that’s your racquet of choice 😂
😏😏😂
When wil you continue road to the atp tour
Very soon
Please try Prince Phantom 100X
Grisha! I need your bag!
Right!!??
HEAD Speed MP , Yonex VCORE 100 for more modern tennis
When are yiu reviewing extreme
Paused, Blade 18x20 V9¿
Somewhat boring and even weird (3 different Heads).
But man, this blade makes my Head Gravity 2025 dream crush.
Anyway, nice to see you .. will use your code for TW now and second time in January ;)
S Novym Godom 🎄🤗
Hahahahahha that's awesome! Have to see the 2025 gravity 🫣 The Blade is one hell of a weapon tho!
Please when's the new merch dropping?
It's in progress!! Really awesome to know you're following the progress of the merch!!
Beautiful setting, but the constant camera angle changing is overkill and adds nothing, never mind makes editing more time consuming. KISS
It's actually more distracting with the back and forth. Glad you didn't get defensive about it, it was meant to be constructive 👋
Where is Yonex?
No yonex? :(
The Vcore 95 totally could make it !!
No love for Pure Strike?
It has to be the pure strike 97
Omg how did I forget about the blade... Of course
Гриш,а где yonex?
😂😂😂
The radical must be on here because you said you might switch
Yes I just saw it aswell thank god
Hahahahahaha 😂😂😂
Hey Grisha, what set-up do you use to record on-court footage? I'd really like to know about the tripod you use
I'll make a video about it soon!
One more ...... Don't u think that except fir zverev & rublev ... there's hardly any pros using the gravity & and tear drop head shaoe makes it clumsy to maneuver 🤔
Wouldn't say so! The shape of the head is what actually makes me stick to it hahahah
Yonex Percept
I actually paused and placed a guess 😂
Hahahahahahahhha thanks a lot for doing that 😂😂 definitely believe you
Day 16 of asking grisha to shave
You are tricky but I think you are the biggest advertiser of wilson RF products.
Definitely the bag!!
All these racquets are heavy!!! 😅
Sponsored by Head?
😂😂 Nope
Viewwws ❤ did you get Spanish citizenship yet
Crazy!! That's Andorra tho 😂
@@gladiatorstribehahaha what ya doing there shopping ? 😂
Less rackets and more tournaments pls
First

title says it's his favourite
How can you tell him what his favorites are use your brain man Jesus Christ
I have a radical pro and it's a great racket.
Maybe your tennis level is not advanced enough to be using the radical pro?
