I hit with this racquet for a couple of days teaching, and practiced with it for a couple of hours also. There is a lot to like about this frame.

The frame is the standard 27 inches long and weighs 11.6(the 10.9 ounce weight listed on the inside of the frame is useless information-since an unstrung racquet is useless) ounces strung. It has a 100 square inch head and an 18(mains) x 20(crosses) string pattern.

The first thing I noticed hitting with this racquet was that it felt solid and hefty in my hand. There was little vibration on contact, and it was easy to generate both pace and spin. The racquet is thin as traditional player’s frames are (something Prince seemed to have forgotten in recent years) and just seems to cut through the air without much resistance. It was very comfortable rallying with…

There are three unique features of a Biomimetic racquet: “AeroSkin”—a coating on the hoop—little raised bumps almost all-around (kinda feels like a basketball). Dunlop says these assist the racquet to travel faster through…
