Our verdict

What we loved

Four things it does better than most.

Among the hardest-hitting frames in our database

18K carbon face is beautifully crisp at full commitment

Black EVA core keeps big hitting predictable

Rewards a genuinely aggressive left-side game

Worth knowing

Three things to know before you buy.

Comfort 87: the stiffness will find your elbow

Tolerance 89 punishes anything less than middle contact

Net play needs early preparation and strong wrists

About this core

A MLD Black EVA core. 41% of the rackets we have scored sit in this band. Read from the core until we rate firmness ourselves.

The review

The Attack version of Tapia's AT10 Genius 18K trades the standard model's manners for outright violence.

The diamond head and 18K carbon face produce smash pace in the same conversation as anything we have scored (power 97), and the black EVA core keeps that pace honest on drives. The cost is smaller than the label suggests: control holds at 89, comfort 87 and tolerance 89 all sit above the standard Genius, and maneuverability 95 keeps the head quick at the net. This is a professional attacker's finisher. If your bandeja is a rally shot rather than a reset, look at the standard Genius instead.

Highlights

Top 1% of everything we have scored, and in the bottom third for value.

Both are true at once, and between them they are the whole review. Our score is better than 99% of the 518 rackets we hold a score for, and only 5 have ever scored 95 or better.
