    1:45 my experience pretty much. Had the Aero strung with 50 lbs, got discomfort in my elbows (I am also a beginner, probably not hitting the one-handed backhand very clean anyway), switched to 45 lbs tension, and now the discomfort is pretty much gone. next time may even try 42 lbs, but 45 lbs seems good so far.

    You are absolutely correct about this racket. It is really stiff.

But I made adjustments , lower tension at 50 lbs lesser stiff string Luxillon Alu power soft. Makes an ocean of difference.

    I currently use a 2019 pure aero. I am a 40 year old 4.0 player. I hit with a lot of top spin on my forehead, and fairly flat back hand. I love the Pure Aero for this top spin. But I have begun to develop shoulder issues and am looking for a replacement racket that would be better for my arm. Could you suggest some demos that might be top spin friendly? Thanks!!

    • @chrischau6501
      @chrischau6501 2 года назад

      I would give the VCore 98 or 100 a try and the EZone 98 or 100. The EZone is just a touch less spin friendly than the VCore but still great spin potential. To me the EZone also felt a touch softer and more friendly to flat shots. On the other hand, you can sort of think of the VCore as a bit more arm friendly and controlled Pure Aero.
      For what it’s worth I used a PA 2016 for a little while in college, then switched to the EZone DR98. I finally just got around to changing rackets and I ended up with this 2023 PA, slightly customized. For me it bridges the gap between the two well. A bit more control and comfort than the PA 2016, and a bit more free power and spin than the DR98.

      As a 5 year radical user and recent extreme tour owner, I can compare those two. Radical is lower launch angle, much harsher on arm, better control, better defense (comparing radical pro 310g to extreme tour 305g). Extreme tour is insanely good maneuverability, very stable for that weight class, higher launch and very nice bite on the ball.

    I tried this racquet today and it felt good to me. I am 43 yrs old NTRP 4.0/4.5 player with bit of elbow issue. I use Yonex ezone 98 with Gosen Sidewinder (a very soft poly). I really like Babolat PA. I would also like to try Wilson Clash 98, but there are no demo racquets for that. Hence asking you, i will only choose Wilson Clash for it's comfort. i want to know your opinion between Babolat Pure Aero (RA 65) Vs Wilson Clash 98 V2 (R 60) for my particular case.
    Can I make Pure Aero is soft by using softer strings and lower tension, coz i know that I liked it, not too sure about Wilson clash. I do like to put some spin on the ball and Babolat Pure Aero allowed me to to take bigger cut at the ball, the older version was not that great, tried that too.
    Spec with Wilson Clash 98 or 100 pro looks good because of the extra string 16x20, assuming that will give me more control.

    It's a slight string pattern change, (Less difference now to the Pure Drive) and a cross between the Pure Aero VS and Old Yeller 2019 Pure Aero Drive) A slight adjustment in stiffness and put it on sale. Not anything in specs, technology or other. The width remains the same. I'm still waiting for Babolat to put out a 98sq in racket with the same beam as the Pure Aero. Stop with the thinner VS. [Yes, the thinner beam is for more control with the 98sq in head but, I prefer the power of the Pure Aero Beam in a 98sq in head. Sort of a medium of both worlds. Not an Aeropro Control, not a VS , not a Pure Drive without the Aero. Babolat needs to get on a 98Sq in head Pure Aero.

      It’s the closest layup wise of any of the 7 they’ve had so far, however this version is softer and with a different dampening system, should still have more spin because of FSI.

    • @stack35
      @stack35 2 года назад

      The Speed MP has a much softer layup (RA 62) and a thinner beam. So you should get more feel and control but less raw power and spin. The Speed MP 2022 is more like a controlled, better feeling Pure Drive imho. Great Racquet anyways, just bought two of them and i am really really satisfied!

      I tried the speed mp and aero, I preferred the aero as I hit flatter but like the spin it adds,as for Speed MP lack of control and not a great feeling racquet considering I have pretty good groundstrokes control was lacking, demo before you buy, I thought the head boom is better than the speed for feel.

    • @stack35

      @@ChaCha765-SY That's interesting bc i was demoing the MP alongside the VCore 98, VCore 100, VCore Pro 100, Pure Drive and Gravity Tour and it was by far the best feeling out of these (Gravity was close but spin and power were easier with the MP).
      The right string setup is another story though, maybe your setup was not ideal.

    So Babolat recognized the utter awfulness of the 2019 version--a string-eating, ball-flinging nightmare designed to allow people who don't know how to hit topspin to get topspin anyway. They haven't updated--they've backdated to the previous design. Now if they'd just backdate it to the original version, then they'd have a great racket again.
    And I'm guessing we'll see this paint job on Alcaraz' VS (which is IMO still the best stick Babolat is presently making.)
