Quick question. Your serve is extremely refined and such a weapon. I'm finding that when I go from service games or just different days, I tend to lose my grip. I either change from holding it closer to the base, more choked up, higher trigger finger, lower trigger finger, etc. How do you find your grip on a given day after a long break?
what is the tension and string you use on you racket (Head Gravity Pro 2023)? Can I use Alu Power Rough, and what tension you can recommend for me? Thanks...
Hi Andrey - I hope we get to see some more of your plays and racquet reviews. I hope you could do a comparative review of Gravity Pro vs. Speed Pro. It would also be great to get some more of your competitive play tips.
I have the gravity pro 2021. i just bought 2 pieces last week on a good sale. However, i am finding that it is low powered and very heavy which is compromising my game. i am using signum pro hyperion 1.24mm. any tips for me?
Excellent review , congratulations! The thoughts on one handed backhands are missing from the end. What should you look out for in one handed backhands? When you tried to hit harder it went into the net 3-4 times. What should you look for in a good one-handed backhand? By the way, I think the racket is excellent, it will be racket of the year!
Highly depends on the player. If you have a strong arm, you can look for heavy rackets including this one. But if you struggle with acceleration, then i think rackets such as Vcore 95/98 could be a better option
Flat serve its simply a joy. Feels like a hammer hitting nails, easily picked up 15mph on my serve if not more. Second serves are no different that my yonex or other rackets, just a differet feel. Kick is a bit tougher but if you are advanced player should be no problem or you can put spin focused string on mains
@@sundaramirtanandha7058 well i would challenge the statement about head size for 1 handers. There are 2 types of one handers - players that have been doing that all their life and are playing on high level or people who started playing as a hobby. First ones usually want something heavy but something that is easy to accelerate (think Shapovalov who used to play with 95). Second types usually need a racket that is easy to use on 1 hander and is comfortable. Head Gravity is extremely comfortable racket but for 1 handers its a bit hard to accelerate. So if you try it and find that you can still generate racket speed then it could be a good option especially if your backhand is attacking type where you can smack a semi flat shot down the line (also slice feels amazing with this racket). If your backhand is more like high topspin and move opponent around then i think some of the offerings from Yonex might be better like VCORE 95 or 98
Yeah i forgot to summarize it. It was a bit hard to accelerate but it was blocking hard shots very well. I think for one hander this racket will require a very strong arm but overall i think there are better rackets out there for 1 handers
Andrey, Tks for the review. Im realy interested in this racquet. Im an agressivo baseliner, good tecnique, full strokes lefty. I’ve played with head mostly, premier, i.prestige mp , prestige classic 600, liquidmetal prestige mid 93 (my fav) and than graphene prestige mp (liked it but felt like a heavier radical, lost attacking power). Recently using the 2021 prestige tour, but it feels heavy and hard to manuever, prob because of the 5 points HL in a high SW frame, too demanding. Looking for an easier frame with good feel and precision. Im 36 now, would you recomend me the GP or blade 18x20?
If im going to buy this racket Luxilon Alu Power would be my first choice to try. I may even try rough with it but Lux strings generally are good by themselves without mixing
I usually don’t watch the hit after the reviews in such videos but the hitting here in such tricky conditions was excellent. Good review too and I agree with the sentiments
I actually played with babolat today and was very surprised by it. My personal choice is still head but i can see why many people would take babolat over it. Highly individual here
Well i personally dont think rpm blast is a good string nor i think it will work on this racket. But if thats your string of choice i would say at least 3-5lbs less than what you used to put on an open string bed racket but i would not go below 46-47lbs
@@lb1011 you can honestly get away with a super high end strings like Luxilon Alu Power (spin or rough) and not be breaking strings every 30 minutes because its such a tight string bed
@@andreysmirnov7461 Okay great advice. Alu power spin or rough seem nice by their description at least. Currently I have my Pure Strike stringed with RPM blast at 53 lbs. Wouldnt 47/48 be a big step then, or do you think that fits the gravity pro better?
Agree that it’s easy to keep balls in. You have to concentrate on hitting a consistent deep ball otherwise I tend to hit short balls that can be used against me. I too fell in love at first hit and made the switch from Boom Pro and Blade 98. The feel on contact is amazingly smooth and stable. And doesn’t feel like a 330 swing weight. She’s a keeper.
@@agradina boom is faster through air so you can generate sneaky quick powerful serves. GP feels amazing but harder to move as you get tired. The B98 is super easy to hit it in but harder to ace as it lacks power.
This racket has upped my game a lot. Initially I thought it was in my head but definitely not, I have had it 4 months now and played about 40 times with it. I came from a wilson blade. It almost feels like a cheat racket!
what version of the blade ? v8 ? and you talking blade 98 or 100 ? i ve been trying blade v100 and grav pro, not quite sure, the blade 100 has more power and still good control so far, but the feel and stability of grav pro is exceptional
2:35 he hits the balls in the net and after he said with this racquet u can hit as fast as u want and harder and the ball will stay in and have good depth. this take the marketing to the next level
