Gael Monfils racquet - Artengo TR 960 Control Tour review 

Thanks for sharing, Stephan!

Customized in what way

@@Bambotb he did not say anything about his spec, just aesthetics

he play with 285gr ? customized + 50 gr :o

@@stephan552 the frame might be different all together

Great insight, Mattia!

When were they fir 150?

@@Bambotb probably around 4-5 years ago, can't remember the year exactly

@@Bambotbin Canada, they are $150 😂

In stock form, or did you change anything?

Donnay Rackets have the same technology having wood inside the frame.

What String pattern do you tried?

@@klauswinzig4997 18 x 20

Was that an easy process? I'd be interested in doing the same.

Isn't L2 the people's grip size? I think it's kinda weird if they didn't have enough .

@@Leo-nc3yx I've played once with L2 grip size and it felt quite small. L3 is my grip size. Unfortunately, Decathlon in Greece, as far as tennis is concerned isn't quite there yet.

It's better to make a racket that needs customisation because everyones needs are different. Some will want head light and othgers head heavy among other factors. So however you make the stock racket it is going to get altered by players anyway. Starting light is better because adding something if it's too light is easy. What are you going to do if the stock racket is too heavy ?

Decathlon in May!

@@Tennisnerd alright! Is euro 110 fixed price? Or there would be changes?

Hey Jarek, They're both good. If you can handle the higher weight of the Aero, you will get a bit more power from that one. If you want a lighter frame, the SX 300 LS is excellent.

Just played with mine for the first time today. Serves and one handed backhand were my favorite moves

It's good!

Wilson Tungsten or Katana Sports copper tape is what you're looking for.

Does the Steel rods cause vibration?

@@mteca5093 no. they are glued well into the handle

@@arturoindraccolo6940 how can i remove the rods? Do you have pics of vid?

@@mteca5093 you have to break all the material of the handle with a hammer and a small chisel is easy but it takes patience and then you remove the iron bars. Or go to an expert who does it in 20 minutes.

@@arturoindraccolo6940 which pallets are best to replace with? Is there vibration absorbing repllacement pallets??

Nice video mate 🇺🇸

@@TimG-- Thanks!

None. They just quote the actual carbon fibre and the epoxy resin separately but it's a bog standard composition for a so-called "graphite" racquet.

@@enematwatson1357 website says handle is 70% Steel...wont that send vibrations

More power than the Candycanes - more like H22.

Yes, that sounds like a good idea. The most power you get at 12, but 10 and 2 works

@Ryuseix its was out around december, out of stock

@Ryuseix so why some, could bought it ? even if they said for " may " its too late

I feel like you get more power and I like the sound more of the Artengo - both offer good feel.

blade pro/H22, prostaff 97S, ultra pro, most of head prostocks are fairly light.

It is entirely dependent on what spec you want and how much wiggle room you desire from your platform to reach it.

@@sjjapp want high swing weight. From 350 - 360. Without monstrous static weight, at least equal to if not lower than the 350-360 swing weight.

@@harryoliver4688 and type of racket? I'll just assume you're after a more control oriented stick as a platform with that kind of preference re weight and swing weight. The swing weight isn't really a problem as it doesn't actually require too much lead tape in hoop to give a super boost to swing weight if you place it high up, like at 12 or something, but with such a heavy static as well a lot of the weight is going to go in the handle I'd say and then probably lead around 3 and 9 or something to boost the static while reducing the impact on the SW compared to being placed higher up. You can use the tennis warehouse racket tool customiser to fill in specs of platform and then desired specs and it will give you some idea of how much weight to add where, if that's of interest. Might come down to how much you want in the handle. But with such a heavy desired spec, my guess is that you'd want to start with a heavier stock base racket to save you caking the frame with weight. It's a very demanding spec you're after there, especially if you meant unstrung 350 or so (and then paired with an equal swing weight, which people usually refer to strung). That's maybe something for you to question on your end unless you've really given it thought and say you're a tour pro or something and it's what brings out the best in your personal game. Even 350g strung is rather heavy and especially so with a 350/360 swing weight. If you knock off a average dampener, overgrip, and strings, that could mean around 326g unstrung.

@@sjjapp static doesn't need to be high, just want headlight of around 9 and swing weight of 355. Any controlled racquet that can get those specs without static getting into the 360s like trying to customise an Rf97 to those specs

20 pts approx

Yeah, not bad - 62 RA.

Lead is heavier

@@Tennisnerd bruh.......... Its a joke ques , read again

Well... the truth is he is really using Artengo in this mold but modified to his specs. Maybe you think all the Forty 5 or 6 or any other fancy name would make a racquet play better than just a regular graphite racquet with good weight and silicon... But who are the pros to prefer that right? Maybe a random guy like you might know way better than them. Hahaha

most of the popular wilson mold plate have been leaked over the years by their factories in china, i even got them to make some for me with custom specs, so many brands copy or create one thats similar, it its not even funny. donnay pro one for example is same mold as prostaff 97 without the PWS. I'm sure artengo just made their "improved or modified" copy of the ultra tour pro... its just a standards box beam ish racket like a prostaff or prestige heritage. the carbon layup is the only thing slightly unique to it but other than that its not so secret anymore.
