I played it for like 4-5 hours. racquet felt crisp but not stiff. Going all out topspin baseline grind was easy, racquet lacks power so even slight misshits are landing in which is cool. But there is a downside, on shorter lower balls I felt that I actually need more power. Spin is great yeah, but I just couldnt let the racquet do its work and land a deep heavy ball from midcourt. Strange mixed feeling, racquet is super from baseline, but once the game shifts to all court you begin to feel bit sad. Maybe it is something you can get used to, but then again, my best racquets felt "super" from hour one usually.
Hello There, Have you ever though of increasing the swingweight on the racquet? That would really help add some plowthough making it easier to hit a heavy ball. -Richard
@@RacquetGuys that I think would help, but I dont like to add weight on demo racquets just to keep them “new” but as I say in stock for example ezone305 prostaff315 blade305, aero300 all technifibre (ok they are usually hh) didnt have this “empty” feel on finishing shots
Great video! I’m thinking if switching out my Head Boom MP and interested in going back to Wilson and the new shift. Do you think they’re too drastically different to switch too? Any thoughts or comments welcome!
Hello Klau, I really want to give that racquet a test just like the Wilson Blade Pro. Hopefully this is something that we will get in Canada but im not to sure. Im definitely very interested in the Wilson Ultra Pro V4. 97sq" 16x19 with Thin and Tapered Frame sounds like a very good time. As I really enjoyed playing with the Wilson Ultra Tour 95 - Richard
Hello Fretstain, For me personally I didn't find that it felt as stiff as the suggested spec. I didn't notice or feel any pain in my arm when playing. - Richard
Currently I use a Wilson Surge 100 BLX which is a 9.8oz unstrung. I use Solinco 19 gauge at 54 pounds. Will the Shift 99 or 99light be best for me or the Wilson Clash 100 regular or light? Thanks!
Where did you get 70RA? It says 67 at Tennis Warehouse
Very helpful! Thanks!
Very good! Thanks
that grip you have is crazy

@@RacquetGuys I absolutely agree
is the stability really that bad
did it feel as stiff as the specs suggest?
