Our scores, updated 11 June 2026 · How we score
Score by score
How we score →The green bar wins the round. The Counter takes 5 of the six, and power is level.
Feel is read from the core and the face until hardness is measured.
What is different
Weight and price change between them; the rest is the same. Pick one to look closer.
The same face on both: fibreglass. Fibreglass is softer than carbon and forgives more; it suits players still building their swing.
No edge either way
* The feel starts from the core's rated hardness (estimated from the core material where there is no rating), then the face: carbon 12K and up is firmer, fibreglass softer.
About the same weight: 355 g and 350 to 360 g.
No edge either way
The balance point is not listed for both.
No edge either way
* Drawn to scale: a 455 mm racket in its shape's outline (traced from a real racket of that shape), with the balance point the shops list marked on it. Real rackets vary by a few millimetres.
