Ti.s6 rackets break

Advantages: a good racket
Disadvantages: breaks without any reason to speak of

...tennis player and have used head rackets all my life. i have never had a problem with them until recently - myself and my sister who also plays at county level used the TiS6 racket and after a few months the frames of both our rackets began to rattle. we sent the product back to head who sent us fresh rackets. true to form, 3 months later the same problem occurred which inclined me to believe that there may be a design flaw with these rackets. do ...

Review of Head TI S6

Head Metallix 4 = Pretty good!

Advantages: Great spin, good strokes all round, decent serves and volleys. Good all-round racket.
Disadvantages: 107sq inch headsize, possibly too big? Not too much control on volleys. but that is all!

...had it custom strung with Head Sonic Pro 17 gauge string at 60lbs. I didn't know much about the strings or the tension but enough to kinda know what I was doing after reading many reviews! At first I found the racket hard to get used to, shots spraying all over the shop and just pretty poor play! However, I think this was down to my ability at the time and the change between rackets. I decided to keep playing with it anyway, (I didnt have much choice ...
...recently purchased more of the Head Sonic pro strings and should be back on court with this great racket in no time! I bought it for around $99 which is probably around £80 perhaps? Now Iv'e seen it available from £50. A bargain I think. It might not be a perfect players racket or the perfect racket for me, i'm really not sure, but It was great for improving my game and was pretty impressed overall. I'm not sure what to do at the moment, whether ...

Review of Head Metallix 4 Tennis Racket

Expensive Buy!!!

Advantages:
Disadvantages:

What a waste of my £120. this racquet is not what it was hyped up to be. Just cause Andre agassi uses it doesnt make it good. It was a complete rip off. i was told there was titanium in it, but this does not seem to make any difference whatsoever. It still feels the same and plays the same as a graphite raquet, but costs way more. If you are gonna buy it, stop, think then buy another one, or wait until the price comes down to something we can afford ...

Review of Head TI Radical

A perfect racket for Nadal worshippers and club players alike

Advantages: A lot of power and a large sweet spot
Disadvantages: Paintwork etc prome to being chipped away easily

...and butter baseline swings. If you feel that this is the racket for you, i would recommend trying it (or any similar Babolat model) first to make sure you have the strength and ability to pull off the insane shots is allows to Nadal. Happy hitting ...

Review of Babolat AeroPro Drive + Tennis Racket

Really nice racket to play with

Advantages: Powerful, Comfortable grip, nice weight ratio, good head size, nice looking
Disadvantages: Part of the shaft has a square shaft which I occasionally rest my hand on and can hurt...Thats it!

...I changed to my first Wilson racket, and since then I have never changed... . The [K]Blade is the last racket that I changed to; I bought it as soon as it came out and loved the way it plays, the frame is relatively stiff, and the 98 produces quite alot of power, I have never been a user of the really heavy rackets because I like to get alot of racket head speed behind the ball so with a lighter racket I find it easier...Still with a 304g weight ...
...rackets they are all made in the same way it just each company has their own selling point which makes the racket feel a little bit different - It is just personal opinion, All I know is that I will always choose Wilson as the brand to buy rackets from. ...
