🎾 3 Tecnifibre Tennis Rackets You Need To Try In 2023: T-Fight 300 & 305 ISO & TF40 305 16M 👀 

Thank you for your comment and story Hayward. I'm glad you like this video and you are on the same wave. Enjoy the 300 g ISO and as always, enjoy the manooovrlbity!

Which string are you using with tfight 300?

Thank you so much. Some words in English are really hard to pronounce for me. Thanks for paying attention to this.

Thank you. I would recommend Tecnifibre TF-X1 300. Huge amount of spin and power. Super stable. Very similar in feel.

Thank you. The biggest difference is definitely the overall feel. The RS version feels more solid, filled, muted, heavier and the new ISO version feels more crisp, fresh, lighter and more manooovrble. I thing actually the RS version of the 300 has better overall performance compared to the ISO, which can feel kind of underpowered and unstable thanks to the overall more "airy" composition.

This might be a good option. I recommend the 285 g version - it packs outsanding power and spin, way better then with most 290-295 g rackets. It's almost like you hit with a regular 300 g racket, but you can control and swing the racket very fast without getting tired. It might be a really good option for people who were using some MP Lite rackets before.

Hi Lucio, thank you for your support. Your path is kind of similar like mine. I used to play with a 100 inch2 head size most of my life but I went for a 98 inch2 recently and I love it. It's a shame that I didn't make this change 10-15 years ago because I always had a great touch and feel for the ball and with 98 inch rackets it gets to a completely different level. For me it feels like I have now unlocked my full potential that has always been there. People around me say I play the best tennis of my life and I'm 39 years and I don't practice as often as when I was younger. So it really depends on your skill and the way you hit the ball. If you are hitting it perfectly all the time, it would be a shame if you stick with a 102 inch rackets all your life. So I wish you happy hitting with the smaller head size.

@@CzechTennisGuy Thank You so much for your response to my comment, You say interesting things which suit particularly to my personal situation. I subscribe to your channel. Greetings from Rome Italy.

And I thank you for becoming my subscriber and for commenting under my videos.

I think the TF40 is more demanding in terms of free power, which is less present there and maybe it requires little bit more precision on while hitting the ball. In terms of swingweight and manooovrlbity, it's easier to use than the TFight 305.

@@CzechTennisGuy I'd love to watch your review of the Pure Strike. I believe a Gen 4 should be on the way.

What string were you using? Black code? Im trying toroline strings with the tfight 300.

I think Speed MP feels like a more classic frame with maybe just a little bit more control. Tfight 295 iso on the other hand is easier to pick up and play with, it has better manooovrlbity and feels more playful. Probably for someone who wants to improve up to a tournament play, the Speed MP will hold longer. I would suggest the Tfight for a intermediate women and the Speed MP for intermediate men.

@@CzechTennisGuy And SPEED MP vs IGA 298? (SMP is more flexible but has bigger headsize)...

@@patricioab I would say these two rackets have plenty of in common and it's just a matter of taste which one do you grab. Obviously the smaller headsize of the IGA racket will suit more advanced players, but as far as the overall feels and performance, these rackets are pretty similar in terms of control, power and stability.

Why not. In general if you are able to swing the racket for the whole session or training, it can work for you. Of course I recommend usually lighter rackets for beginners, but sooner or later you would have to switch to a heavier racket so why not to try it right now.

Oh yeah, this Pure Strike is also a beast of a racket. The Tecnifiber sticks are generally very similar to the Pure Strike series, especially the TF40 versions.

You brought up some valid points for sure. Tecnifibre was heavily inspired by Babolat and their Pure Drive and Pure Strike series. Not so much with Pure Aero. I still use the TFight XTC 295 from 2019 and this racket feels like Pure Drive, looks like Pure Drive and plays quite similar to Pure Drive. And I have to say it's excellent. Then they've released the TFight RS series (2021 I think), which was inspired by Pure Strike rackets. Not so special about them, felt quite mediocre. But now they have the ISO rackets and they are different. They feel unique and fresh. The TF40 line is still a well done copy of the Pure Strikes in my opinion. Overall I think Tecnifibre is nowadays trying to establish as a racket company with their own unique style and approach. Interestingly many players think that their first TFight rackets with the Dynacore HD technology were their best. I also think that the XTC technology by TEI company was ecellent. Nowadays they use this tech in their newest padel rackets. The XTC tech is probably very similar to the C2 Pure Feel by SMAC since the TEI is an international manufacturer offering high-quality products and services to aviation industry. So they have probably very similar construction in that sense. At the end of the day, all high-performance rackets are made of carbon fiber and this material is the heart of the racket. For me personally the only very unique racket company that actually inovates the tech by their own and they feel different is the Yonex. All the other rackets feel very similar in my opinion because they are made in the same factories each behind different door. Only Yonex is made in Japan in their own factory with their own build process. Yonex is probably the only company that doesn't copy others. But who really knows. Thnaks for your comment.

@@CzechTennisGuy Thanks for an insightful reply.

It would be an easy switch because the ISO feels more soft, powerful and with little bit more touch and feel. I actually didn't like the RS versions too much, because they felt dull und unresponsive to me. The ISO versions are much more alive in my opinion and they have greater energy transfer.

The 305RS felt little bit too muted, kind of "lazy" let's say. The new ISO stick has more easy power and crisper feel to the shots. I would say the ISO rackets feel more alive and playful compared to the previous RS generation which required a lot of effort to have the same speed of the shots similar to the ISO rackets.

Yes, it's a good intermediate racket. I would say it's easier to play with than the Radicals and Speed rackets. Give it a shot if you can.

@@CzechTennisGuy I'm an advanced 5.0 player so I think I will add some weight to make the unstrung specs around: 310g, 295sw, 31.9 b What do you think?

@@alexgrant4864 That sounds reasonable. Always maintain the balance around 32.0 or lower (unstrung).

It's not about which one is better. Both are great. It's about what do you expect from a tennis racket. Power, control, spin, precision, feel? What are you looking for? What is your game about? Ezone 100 has more power and stability. Tfight 300 has more feel and precision.

@@CzechTennisGuy Thank you for the response. I currently use the ezone 100 and play as a baseliner. I feel the ezone has a lot of power and sometime my shots fly off when I am trying extra power. Looking for a little bit more control with power. Does the tfight 300 have more control when compared to the ezone 100?

Tfight has more control and precision for sure compared to the Ezone 100. It also has better/faster manooovrlbity.

Yes, Iga has now freshly switched to the T-Fight. I'm not sure how heavy it is, but it will be probably around 300 g or sub 300 g.

Yes, that's true. These are rackets for the general public. But I will correct you in one quite important thing - most pro's means in real life only about the first TOP 50 players, maybe. The other pro's out of this ranking hit with stock rackets or with some customized stock rackets you can buy for yourself. My cousin is 320 on WTA (Michaela Bayerlova, 24 years old) and she plays with regular Pure Aero rackets that she has to buy her self. She has no sponsorship. It's a tough game and only the very best get the best equipment. Myself I can also play with almost any racket (Blade, Gravity, Extreme, Radical, Dunlop you name it) but I will always have to adjust something to that particular frame to avoid unforced errors, which can lead to more cautious game, which is not something you can win matches with.

You don't want to hear me speaking Czech. Your ears would suffer even more, believe me 😉

His English is excellent and very easy to understand. How's your Czech?

@@clivelindsay6635 Thank you. Trying my best 🙌

@@CzechTennisGuy No problem. Your Tecnifibre review gave me food for thought as I am going through the process of choosing a new racquet. I returned to tennis last summer after a gap of more than 20 years (used to play for my club at the time) and have begun to play in a local tennis league. However, I have a very old Prince Graphite Comp 90, 14x18, 349g from the 1990s and have to find something more up to date. I would prefer a European-made racquet, like Tecnifibre, Babolat or Dunlop, although I am open to Yonex too. However, even narrowing it down to those brands, it is still a bit of a nightmare narrowing it down to one. I am 63 by the way, reasonably fit for my age and serves and volleys are my best shots, but I've forgotten how to hit a two-handed backhand so am back to single-handed, so I am trying to find a racquet that best suits. Now just found your "Why You Should Buy An "Average" Tennis Racket" video and that was helpful too.

The 315 g versions are for sure among those top Tecnifibre rackets. I just don't have them with me. It's interesting that the 315 g versions seem quite easy to hit with compared to the 305 g version.

I’ve seen reviews that many prefer the 315 over 305. How did the iso get that out of control from a SW perspective? The xtc 305 was absolutely the best tfight out there to date. Why are they making it heavier and more demanding? Medvedev specs his out to 31 CM with a lower SW than a normal pro.

@@christopherconte6241 I don't know why they are making the 305 so head heavy. If the balance was 320 mm, it would be a lot better for intermediate players. The 315 version feels better balanced with easier swing. Maybe they just want to have a special racket which kind of feels and plays like a pro stock but is a lot lighter overall.

Tecnifibre could’ve just remade the xtc into the iso paint job and I would’ve been absolutely thrilled

Yes, I agree. I still use the XTC 295 from 2019 and the racket is such a joy to use. It's essentialy a lighter Pure Drive with loads of power, stability and great control. I think the XTC by TEi material and Dynacore HD was the best frame composition, yet. The RS series was too muted. The ISO feels better than the RS but maybe it's at some situations too hollow and lacks the feel fro the ball little bit.
