Score by score
How we score →The green bar wins the round. The Vertex takes 2 of the six, the Arenal takes control and comfort, and sweet spot and handling are level.
Feel is read from the core and the face until hardness is measured.
What is different
Four things change between them. Pick one to look closer.
Carbon and fibreglass on the Vertex, carbon 18k on the Arenal.
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.
The Arenal is about 15 g lighter: quicker to the ball at the net. The Vertex puts a little more weight behind a smash.
Edge: the Arenal, for quick hands
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.
