It has improved greatly with off-center hits and torque because of the softer flex. But with the same weight, head size and shape it holds up just as good as the previous edition in other areas.
We do have a review of last gen and this model which gives the best comprehensive answer. But in short, I typically am pro upgrade as rackets deteriorate, and the cost of a new racket is worth it overtime in my opinion.
Do you think it would benefit from a leather grip or some tail weighting for players who are used to playing more of a headlight 305? Or would that detract from how the racquet is supposed to play?
Great question. I’m typically not an advocate for weighting rackets (unless the heaviest option is too light or it’s for a pro/college player). Having said that I think leather improves all racket for feel, weight, and the volley. If that is what you seek then it can be a good idea for any racket. If you just want weight then maybe starting with a heavier alternative racket would be my advice.
Yes. Person I was playing with hit the camera on the second ball. Hahahah. It gets very crackly at some point so we take out the audio and when it’s off for a second or two, we decided to leave it as the overall clip is still pretty good.
The review that i was waiting for. Do you think the stability has improved compared to previous ones?

I have the previous version, how does it compare? Is it worth it to upgrade?

I think Zverev is endorsing the Gravity Tour, not the MP
He endorses them all. His face is on all of the punchcards and on all of the advertising banners.
Would like to know how is this compared to the new gravity tour 98
In short Gravity MP is more user friendly with slightly larger head and lower weight.

How would you compare this stick to new extreme mp?
Extreme is more inconsitent and less feel
Gravity MP = control and comfort anywhere on the court.
Extreme MP = spin with power from the baseline
Depends on your grip style. Extreme can be very consistent with heavy spin.
Paint lacks creativity for my taste.
I completely agree. Multiple head racket launches with nearly the same exact cosmetic as the previous generation.
audio is jacked
Yes. Person I was playing with hit the camera on the second ball. Hahahah. It gets very crackly at some point so we take out the audio and when it’s off for a second or two, we decided to leave it as the overall clip is still pretty good.
