Please do a comparison between Shift 300 and Gravity MP. Similar weights and the same string pattern. Would love to see that.
Agree
@@alexgrant4864 me too!
I use a 2021 Gravity Tour with Velocity MLT 17 - 50lbs.
Comfortable, smooth and really enjoyable. I kept trying other demos but I keep coming back to this racket.
May add the new Auxetic Gravity MP in the future.
Would have been an interesting experience to been there for a HEAD Engineers discussion. Did you meet the 2 key engineers who developed the Auxetic for the racquets? Would be great to hear more about the Materials Science in good detail behind the development.
Also I can see why this(for now) will not work out well for Prestige's though
Just bought the Pro to try it.
I was chosing between GP and Pro Staff X, wanting littlebit bigger, yet control oriented racket.
I'm switching from the Blade V8, I was adding some weight to it.
Haven't played with it yet, but pretty excited already!
If it turns out, it will be to heavy/demanding, might consider to switch to a Tour version.
Thanks for the review! 👌
Please do the comparison
Pro staff 97 and X, gravity, shift
nice video.
planning to buy a gravity pro, which one should i go for?
The older version or new auxetic one? especially in the light of u mentioning that the newer one has very few differences over the older one and in fact has lower feel and feels more dampened.
Hi Jonas, after watching your video I bought my own Gravity Pro Auxetic. I really like the stick but I think the strings that come with the racket are not the best ones and can't feel what you described. Do you think that putting a soft power poly at around 52 pounds is going to make a difference? Thanks
Jonas- Do you think this new Gravity Pro with 20mm beam width, 18x20 pattern and being more head light would also suit one hand backhand? Hopefully this new edition is much better than the previous one which was not great.
Same with the Radicals also which on in its previous edition I found not so great.
The previous gravity is a popular racquet by a lot of players, tennis reviewers, even rublev switched to it. That racquet was fantastic. I couldn't play with it because the swingwieghtt is little high for my one hander but everything else was solid.
Awesome review Jonas! I used to play with the Gravity Tour 1st gen with a leather grip and some weight at 12. Served like a dream, spin was above expectations, control was top notch, and it was really stable. It was a type of racquet that you don’t need to worry about swinging out. Because of it’s control oriented stringbed, you can put a a very lively string without worrying about the ball launching. I really like the paintjob of the Auxetic version! If I wasn’t in love with my PAVS and PA98, I would have given these new Gravity’s a demo!
Im a Big fan of your video , so which model would you prefer to one handed BH player?
I just ordered the previous version of the gravity pro at a deep discount. That frame was good enough for my game, specially with my favorite Luxilon strings. I basically choose frames that are a great match to the strings ;)
whats a good setup on the blade v8?
@@amirjon I personally use the blade v8 18x20 with luxilon alu power strung at 52lb and love it.
It is the same frame. Aux is just a phrase. Nothing has changed.
what is your gravity pro set up? do you have a string and tension recommendation or any modification?
Really enjoy the new MP. Tested it for about 10 hours then bought one. Feels more stable than VCore 100. Great feel overall. With overgrip and a little lead, static weight at 333 but quite maneuverable and comfortable.
I've got some arm issues and was wondering if i should get new vcore or gravity mp. What are the differences?
@@ThatManFromOuterSpace me too, what racquet causes issues? For it was the Pure Aero Team 2023 - my wrist was very painful. Anyhow I am testing Gravity Mp 2023 and Vcore 100 2023 at this very moment. Managed to hit with Gravity yesterday and I found it comfortable (no pain whatsoever until this moment). I am hitting with Vcore 100 next, managed 5-10 mins with it so far, higher launch angle, less control is what i immediatly noticed, I can update you with the rest by the end of the week most likely :)
@@tilenmlakar814 same here it was the 300 gram pure aero 100 2023
I've had some slight elbow discomfort for a long time -- VCore and MP have both felt okay. MP has more flex but not a huge difference for my particular situation in terms of arm stress.
@@DelMelo I see, thanks
Hi Jonas! How is the Tour compared to the Speed Pro? Guess the SP has a bit more power due to the slightly thicker beam? Kind regards
Hey Jonas, great video, really glad to see an improvement on the gravity lineup, even if it’s a small one. How would you compare to the radical mp auxetic? I’m sold for Head Racquets, but between these two, it is hard to pick a winner.
Do you like the Tecnifibre TF-40 18x20 better? Or this one?
Hey Jonas, thank you for the so waited review of the new gravity line.
Question :
Gravity tour is my absolute favorite but while the throat is 62 ra, the head is very stif and it always gave me injuries.
So you think the head of the new one is softer?
Thank you so much.
Cheers from Belgium, TENNIS MATE
Very interested to have this compared to Pro Staff X. I think the Wilson may have a higher launch angle..?
Would you suggest the MP for a one-handed backhander? Thanks in advance for letting me know.
Great review as always! One question about the stiffness of the MP. On your website it’s listed as 59 whereas in the video it’s 62. Which one is it? Cheers!
59 - I listed the previous racquet 62 will fix
@@Tennisnerd Thanks! And has the flex changed with the Auxetic or was it always 59?
Thank you for your good review. I have a few more questions for you.
A short time ago, I tested both the Pro and Tour. Of the two, I liked the Tour the best, whereas the Pro demands a little too much from me.
I currently play with a 305-gram Pure Strike, the same as the Gravity Tour. Now I would also like to test the Gravity MP, which is 295 grams. I want to test this one first without additional weight to see how it plays, but then possibly add 10 grams to get to my usual 305 grams. Where do you recommend adding those 10 grams? How can I best distribute that?
If the MP then ends up being the same weight as the Tour at 305, will there still be much difference between these rackets to feel, and if so, what could be the difference in terms of feel, do you think?
I'm very curious to hear your thoughts on this. Thanks in advance!
Jonas - is Radical MP the frame that you find the most effective for your matches? (I remember you made reference to it in couple of videos and how you end up coming back to it in some ITF Masters tournaments)
It is one of my favorites, yes!
Please help. I'm about to order this racket but I've seen some videos saying that it's a heavy racket. I am using right now the head TIS6 which is super light is this gonna be way too heavy? The reason I wanted to get this is because of the new technology And because the beam is only 20 mm. The one on the TIS6 is way too thick and gets in the way of my backhand slices. Should I still order it? Is there anything I can do about the heaviness maybe give a little weight towards the back? Or is there a different racket similar to this one that is lighter? Thanx so much!!!
How does the MP respond to customization and weight? Does the performance change dramatically?
How would you rate the MP against the wilson blade 16x19? Thanks for all the reviews as always.
I got my Gravity MP today and it‘s a match made in heaven. It is exactly what I want. Very plush, I can feel the ball in the strings, gives me enough pop and the ball goes where I want it.
It’s strung with Kirschbaum Gut Feeling in the crosses and Kirschbaum Pro Line Rough in the mains. 23kp
Nice to hear! Enjoy
And it came in at 294g. I like!
In previous generation review you mentioned that they are a bit sluggish and that Pretisge Tour 360+ is similar but faster through the air and more maneuverable. Do they still feel like this? I went for Pretisge Tour 360+ and it is a great racket but the sweetspot could be bigger and also power should be a bit better. Is the Gravity Tour good replacement?
How's it compared to Blade V8? Do a comparison of that please.
360+ Tour has been available in USA. I was able to demo it couple years ago. Eventually chose the Speed
Really liked the Gravity Pro but it was too heavy for me to swing on the serve. I felt it had plenty of spin potential depsite it being 18x20
I currently play the 2021 Radical MP. And I do really like that frame. But sometimes it’s not the most comfortable racquet. Are these better for comfort?
The best part of a new gravity line releasing is that I could get the old gravity pro for $200 off. I love the green and blue of the old line, and the racket is amazing. I do want to try the auxetic just to feel it, but I can't imagine it's worth the extra 200 bucks
I literally just picked up two old Gravity rackets, half price! Way to go for sure.
Where guys?
@@TMSHORTS_. i picked mine up in the UK, most stores currently half price comeeee on
@@rhyscole5985have you tried the auxetic version yet? Is it worth it to go for auxetic now or still the 360+
Hey TN, can you elaborate on what makes this too demanding for a guy with your skills? Seems to me that your skill can handle the weight. I play sometimes with 2020 gravity pro and love it (although I switched to boom pro about a year ago) just because I can maneuver them more easily over 3 sets. I’m a 4.5 and think I can handle it but maybe I’m being too optimistic. I’m considering demoing it and adding it to my bag which currently has 2 boom pros, 2 Wilson blades 16/19 and 1 gravity pro 2020. Would love your thoughts. PS - also want to demo Volkl c10 evo as specs are similar to these and I used to love the original c10 but it was too heavy.
I use the Gravity Tour with Head Lynx Tour 21/20kg works perfect for me. You think would be even better with softer strings?
How would you compare with the Prestige MP? I'm hesitating between the two. 4.5 player currently using the Speed Pro, looking for more precision, stability and plow-through.
Damn that's a good looking frame
Agreed
Jonas - can you do a comparison between Pro and MP XL? Would love your thoughts…
How does the new Gravity Pro compared to the Head Pro Tour 2.0? I’m currently using the Pro Tour 2.0 and love it but sometimes it can be a bit demanding (basically I’m not good enough) so was thinking maybe the Gravity Pro is a slightly more user friendly Pro Tour 2.0 because of the larger head size and less weight? Although swing weight is similar. Also thinking more access to spin with the Gravity Pro but maybe less power? Basically after a more user friendly pro tour 2.0 so would this be a contender? Thanks for your help.
Hello, nice video, which racket is better for strong beginners? I've been playing for 2 years and my strong blow is the right-hand blows from the bottom of the track. My hit is flat and strong but I miss some balls because I have a lot of strength but I can't speed the racket to lift enough. Which racket can be better the Gravity Mp or the Gravity tour? Thanks
MP or Team (which this video didn't review).
I currently play with the Pro Staff Six One 100 V13. It slightly beat out the last Gravity MP model. I wanted the MP to play just a bit firmer or more solid. It sounds like the auxetic may do just that. Is that your impression? Thanks and great review👍✌️
Hello Jonas, I really enjoy your reviews. I have written to you before about this and here i go again. Please include in your reviews on more category that it seems to be ignored by all reviewers. You all talk about intermediate and advanced players (which by its self is a bit vage) but never about "advanced" players that carry some age, injuries and general beat up from time on their soulders. What about the 55+ attacking player who was used to heavy frames (320g), 95sq heads etc but now cannot swing as fast, move as fast or hit as hard and gets tired a lot quicker?. I have never read or watched a review that that considers age as a factor. Am i now an intermediate racket player and should start looking in that category?
The comparison between all the frames sounds awesome!
Head gravity auxetic 9:18 mp or radical mp auxetic? For the baselinner agresive? Thanks!!❤
Love the review and thank you for the content!
Have you heard anything new about the Rafa Origin?
Hawk in the crosses with velocity in mains? Whats is durability? 3 h?
Hi Jonas, I'm very interesting about the change of my tecnifibre tfight 305rs that I like it very much, but it's quite old, with gravity pro, seems closer. Please help me to decide !! Thank you al lot from Italy !
Auxetic help for comfort ? I was in love with Gravity Tour 2021, perfect for my game. But sometimes a bite a of pain to my wrist 😢
So i was playing more with VcorePro100 (strung mono Ltec Paradox 19 kgs)
Using pure drive 2021 having elbow issues, thinking of the tour as a option, what you think? String wise any advise? Currently using hyper g soft 23kg
use even softer strings, like Volkl V-star, Volkl Cyclone tour or Yonex polytour pro. See if that helps, it helped me significantly, but I had to change the racquet from Babolat to Prokennex in the end. Testing Gravity this week, so far I liked it very much.
@@tilenmlakar814 tried touroline no issues so far with caviar, will try k pro as well
you tempt me here my friend. the new one looks good
Update: went to the local store, looked at a new one. I bought it
Love my prestige tour 2021, seems like the auxetic helps more when the racquet has a thicker beam 22mm vs 20mm on the pro
So what's better then you prince TT 100p for 1 hand backhand now in 100inch ??? An you name a couple
Thanks for the insightful review Jonas.
My pleasure!
great review as always!
want to see comparison between gravity v shift v prostafff and also blade
For someone who plays with 340g racket strung, do you reckon it's better to get the Pro in stock weight or rather MP/Tour and weight them up to that spec?
From my experience, unless you like a head heavy balance, I would suggest to get the lighter Tour or MP and customize them to your liking. With the Pro, if it feels too head heavy, stock, and you try to tailweight it, you might end up with a too high of static weight.
@@icemandl6 Im not sure if that's correct though. Previous gen gravity Pro is more head light than MP for example. It just has more static weight, but my current racket is pretty balanced already, so that shouldn't be a problem.
Use Tourna Silver 7 Tour 1.25 Jonas, on 18x20 it really compensates the lower launch angle.
Though you said folks have to enjoy a lower trajectory, from the video i almost feel like you have a higher trajectory than both of the recent Speeds (especially the 18x20 Pro but even the MP)
I have a Gravity MP 360+ and I love the control and feel, but sometimes I wish I had more power....I have been thinking about VCore or Speed as options with control but a bit more power than the Gravity MP. Thoughts?
Add some weight at 12 and in the handle...
I play with the gravity mp 2021 and i also added weight. On 9 an 3 o clock about 6cm tourna lead tape and your racket is a a rocket! plow trough, stable and more sweet spot to the side. have fun
Or you can lower your tension, or switch strings (multi or gut) also.
What's this racket like for a single handed backhand?
So that gravity is similar to yonex vcore range? Control w big sweet spot?
How does the gravity pro compare to a prestige pro?
What would be the best rackets to play doubles ?
Someone can tell me, good custom for Gravity Tour? For better plow trought and spin.
Where can i buy the “tennis nerd” t - shirt?
When can I buy this!!!! ?????😂😂😂 Great review! I demoed the new tech in the Speed line and loved it but, I was not gelling with the 18x20 and now that it’s in the Gravity, I am really looking forward to demoing the new Gravity MP.. thanks for your awesome reviews, advice and product updates!!!
You can buy it in early April, thanks!
Hi, love the channel. I was wondering if you could do a video about good full sized rackets for juniors aged 10-11 where they need a lighter weight.
Great idea! Thanks
@Tennisnerd maybe a comparison between Blade 100UL or 100L, Gravity MP L or Team L and something in a Babolat range?
Were the specs on the pro in this video or did I miss it?
Huge gravity pro guy. The new edition better looking. I’ll wait until they go on sale in a couple of years before updating.
this one or the wilson blade?
If possible, a comparison with the v13 pro staff would be much appreciated as the v14 doesnt seem as interesting. Tack så mycket för din content, mycket uppskattat!!
I’m really liking the cosmetic!
How is it compared to speed pro?
Does anyone have a comparison between the gravity pro and blade?
Gravity mp lite has more power n lighter which you can customize to your spec n make more power n control
how does gravity tour/mp compare to ezone 98
How does it compare to the speed mp auxetic?
Square or rectangular grip?
Will there be a new Extreme Mp this year?
Always confused with Head having so many similar lines apart from prestige and radical, they have speed, extreme, instinct, gravity, boom
Yea right
I realize you can't review every racket, but since the Gravity S was the first racket you mentioned in your "over-sized racket" review, it seems it would have been included here...
please do comparison between pro staff v13 315 and the gravity pro
always wanted to get a gravity in my bag, deciding between pro or tour. i mostly likely to customize if getting a tour. any recommendations?
Hard to say, I would go Tour
thank you for useful contents
Не надо нести чепуху про какие то псевдо "резиновые" структуры углеволокон!! Карбон как был нерастяжим на атомном уровне так и остаётся и никакой линейной деформации быть не может!! Другое дело что инженеры Head стали опять применять более мягкие связующие смолы при спекании слоев HM слоев углеволокон.Но на презентации они конечно тебе пели в уши что прикупили у японцев новейший материал!! Дадада!! Ракетка тогда бы стоила как чугунный мост!!🤣🥎🤣
Veeeery interested in this one! Boom Pro was comme ci comme ca.
If you take 2 minutes to explain the new "magic material", this is likely a cosmetic update, more or less... I liked all the cosmetics of the Gravity line. Only critique for me always was, the lack of feel, almost too plush, because of the huge sweet spot. But this is probably the downside of such a huge sweet spot, the definition will go with it. Still a fan of 95" rackets.
Paintjob is perfect match for Tourna Grips 😊
Safiulin and Rischard also use Gravity
Waw what painting job 👌👌👌
Demoed the Pro Version. Exactly the same feel and performance as the older yellow / purple version. Same your money
Strangely my backhand is amazing with the new gravity but I cannot hit a forehand with it
Spec tolerance is inexcusable in a premium product like this.
Do a pro staff 97 comparison please
This cosmetic is similar to Wilson Blade.
I own 2 Gravity Tours - USA
Yeah but haven’t been selling them new in the us for a bit now
Pretty stick!
Feels like 295 is too light and 315 too heavy🙃
Then start working out you wuz😂
You buy lighter and add weight with customization then ;)
Lmao
@@MrRaviden Yeah I think thats the plan, but not ideal
How does Gravity Pro (Auxetic) compare to the Prestige Pro (Auxetic)? You did a comparison of the previous generation a couple of years ago ruclips.net/video/xjPmycRZ1NU/видео.html
Prestige Pro is more demanding, smaller sweetspot. U get slightly more maneuverability, but thats all...
Every 2 years there is a groundbreaking new technology 😂😂😂 - it's a joke 🙈. The companies should just produce rackets that feel great and have a good quality control ! Don't try to sell me "the newest and best technology" again and again and again ☝🏻
