Excellent! 🙏 have a wonderful Holiday Season! 🐾❤ I love her 🐶
Thank you!! You too!
I would like a review of volkl V8 Pro. I tested it once and really liked. Very hard to see good reviewers testing it. One of the best tennis channels for sure. Congrats.
Thanks for the video! If you you compare the TF40 to the solinco whiteout, what would the differences be? They seem a quite similar to me.
Totally agree with you on your #1 pick. Picked up 2 of them this past BF sale after demoing, and it’s an amazing frame! Easy on the arm, stable, solid plow and it’s a lot of fun. Total sleeper of a frame for control without sacrificing spin 😎
Couldn't agree more! Congrats!
I reckon the Solinco 18x20 should be in that list. Solid stick
Great video every year including this year(2023) you should do top5 control rackets, top 5 spin rackets, and top 5 power raccquets for every year 2023 onwards amazing videos and i hope you win a lot of tournaments next year keep up the work grisha amazing job.
Thank you very much!! Will do!
Good content as usual, if you have a one handed backhand what would be your nomination for the best advanced racquet of 2023-thanks in advance.
Sick vid per usual. The highlights with the TF40 were nasty I was surprised at the time you didn’t score it higher. Need ur expert advice for me I have OHBH, like to slice, need control and maneuverability. Rad Pro Aux, Blade 18x20 or TF40 18x20 best stick? Cheers. Tom
Great video (as always)
Glad you enjoyed it!
Please review in 2024 the updated version of the Dunlop CX line .
Thanks for this video. I tested the Head Gravity Pro for 2 weeks. Just because you are so enthusiastic about it and I am looking for something better than my Ezone 98 (if that is possible). The Gravity Pro is good, lots of control and also enough power. Very good flat first serve, decent second (but maybe that is me, 100 inch and my second serve don't go well together), killer flat forehand with this racket, but it is a bit to sluggish for my single handed backhand end I felt the same with volleys. Also, after 1 hour or more intensive hitting, I am starting to feel it a bit. More tired than with my Ezone 98. Sorry, but will not switch. But overall a very good racket.
The ezone 98 is a hard one to beat. I thought of switching myself!
Yeah, it is an amazing racket. Since I strung it with Alu Power at 22Kilo, I can hit at full speed and almost all balls go deep and stay in. That racket and strings give so much confidence. @@gladiatorstribe
I had the opposite.. my arm started to hurt with the exonerated 98 (latest version) and the power was great for serves but a bit too high. Next to that too muted for a good feel for the ball on touch shots. But a great racket. I stick to my gravity pro
Grisha, how would you recommend I customize my gravity pro to be a bit more maneuverable? I can hit good ground strokes but my serving feels a little sluggish. Keep up the fantastic work on your videos!
Get a lighter racket and spec it up. It’s rlly tough to do the opposite
Been using the Pro Staff ever since the review! If it weren't for Grisha I would still be using a Wilson Blade!
Hahahahah awesome! Glad you're enjoying it!
your specs for gravity and what did you changed?
The dog is so cute!
Hahahahahah
was trying to focus on the review but kept getting distracted by the dog - 2:00 ❤
Same 😂
Thanks Grisha for the really interesting and really entertaining and nice videos you post...really good I'm an old school player and I learned to play tennis with the Prestige Pro. I'm honestly happy to play with the version Pro graphene 360, not sure probably the 2016 version, but I'm lacking on power, especially when I'm tired. I'm switching to the new Radical Pro auxetic (315 g ), the one you tested with 23 kg string tension, +2 kg compare to Prestige. I'm really happy about this choice. I see you like this racket as well, but you slightly prefer the Gravity Pro. I tested only the MP version ( 305 g ) which is not bad but not at the level of the Radical Pro for me. I didn't get the chance to test the Gravity Pro yet. Why, at the end, do you prefer the Gravity Pro instead of the Radical Pro ?...can you give me your feedback and explain me the differences between this 2 rackets, so I might think if it worth for me to try the gravity as well ? Many thanks in advance. Cheers
Hi Grisha, kind reminder. We you get the chance please give me your feedback about it, it'd be really appreciated...many thanks in advance
Kind reminder
the dunlop cx 200 is an underrated frame imo. my frame of choice
How about new solinco whiteout 18x20? Hearing some good words about this racket
Please do a retro review series!
Btw, since I saw Areg at the end - how’s he doing? You guys in touch?
Hello, nice video. Tecnifibre tf 40 is 18x20 or 16x19?
There's both versions
my man grisha's been insanely good with this chanel lately
Hahahahaha thanks!
Hey, Im playing Tennis for 10 months now and Im controlling groundstrokes and serves , I wanted to ask you how to find the best racket for me. I started to play with the Pure Aero 2023 (300g 100sq) and I hated it!! Now Im playing with Ezone (300g100sq) and it is so much better but I always have the feeling like maybe this is still not the best for me cuz there are so many rackets lol I would love to get some recommendations and help (I thought about trying the Ezone98) thank you!
Omg where do I buy that mini gravity racket plz lol
How is PA98 not in the list. Anyway, it is common that Babolat frame on opposite sides of spectrum, either you extremely hate or like the frame.
I LOVE the setting ❤😊 Where was that?
Hahahahaha thank you, video coming soon about the location 🤭 Stay tuned!
Missed the Whiteout!
The dog is the best part of the video
True
TF40 305 18x20 is my match stick
God damn that's a beautiful view man 🌄
Yep hahaha
I play the Radical and, as you've rightly said before, it's more of an all-around frame. I'm afraid you missed Head's REAL control frame, the Prestige Pro 2023. Still, I ♥the vid. Maybe your best yet. Merry 🎄 🧑🎄!
Thanks a lot! 0:23 😂😂 Merry Christmas!
I stand corrected! You payed respect to the Pro, after all. Bravo!
I'm surprised you chose the TF40 as #1. It indeed is a very good racquet that becomes great with a bit of customization.
Totally agree!
I'm team TF40 too. Where did you add weight and how much did you add?
@@chadbrown2879i added a leather grip to the tf40 305 16x19, feels good, tried with lead tape at 10&2 but didn’t love it. What would you propose?
@chadbrown2879 I have an 18 x20. Added a leather grip and 3 grams total between 3 and 9.
@@szymonwdziekonski6953 not sure, I did the leather grip too but haven't used lead yet. I'll prob try 10/2 but I don't want to add much weight
Yonex is realy special!! control TOP
All these new racquets....how many pros have continued to play with their old stick...plus a paint job? My Prince Graphite II OS does the job...I see why AA loved these frames.
Santa Puppy 🐶🎅🎾🎄🎄🎄
Ultra pro review potentially sometime?
Potentially!!
CX 200 All day baby!!
Which one of these have the best power?
Gravity from my experience.
When Grisha plays it, the TF40 looks like a power racket not a control
Hahahahaha thanks 😂😂
cute dog :D
Thanks 😂😂
I have never used a control racket
Dog is looking festive
😂😂😂
Роскошно!
Where do u leave your dog when u travel
It's not mine 😂
tf40 the best racquet for control and the worst racquet for power.
This is a bit controversial. Since you have the Wilson Pro Staff as the number 3 best racquet of the year but have it as number 5 of the control racquets. There is a bit of inconsistency there 👀
I'm pretty sure you can figure out why it's like that 😉
That’s not Radical Pro u showed the MP 😂
Hawk eye!!
Didn’t think you’d use the MP with CPI 400 that’s what I use. The Pro is CPI 200.
Maybe the pro wasnt available at that time, I also use the MP 23, with a bit of weight added
I liked my own post
