-
Babolat Pure Aero
The first ever racket family built entirely on ball rotation. The latest update provides significantly improved stability and comfort, while still delivering massive spin! Read our review of the Babolat Pure Aero here. -
Head Graphene 360 Extreme MP
A racket with a 'normal' 16x19 string pattern, but with extremely open meshes in the sweet spot. Special grommets for extra snapback of the main strings do the rest: extreme spin. The full review of the Extreme MP can be found here . -
Diadem Nova FS 100
The innovative American Diadem comes with a rock-solid update of the Nova series. This series, made for power and spin, gains stability and touch through the new Flex Stabilization technology. One of the most comfortable rackets in this genre, without compromising on feedback. Fully filled frame with internal rib structure and high density foam.

Prince Textreme 2.5 Phantom 100X
Not the most typical spin racket in this list, but a very nice one! This racket is more control oriented and has a nice slim beam. The low RA value of 58 ensures very easy ball pocketing. This combined with an open 16x18 stringing pattern gives nice, controlled spin. This review is still in the making. -
Dunlop SX 300
The SX 300 from Dunlop offers surprising stability for a 300 gram racket. In addition, the racket also offers good damping, which is however somewhat at the expense of the direct playing feel. Dunlop has used special different grommet shapes at 12 o'clock for extra snapback of the main strings for spin. Our extensive review will follow soon; the first test hours before the Corona outbreak were pleasant.
