Our impression
Teardrop shape developed specifically for precision: Bio Soft Foam core and Cork Bioshield damping – accessible for beginners and intermediate players, made entirely in Portugal.
At 367 g, it is heavier than three quarters of all models in our comparison: that puts mass behind the ball and adds stability against hard shots, but costs reaction speed at the net. Head shape Teardrop means: the sweet spot sits a little higher – more punch in attack than a round racket, more forgiving than a diamond; the low balance makes it feel more manoeuvrable than its weight suggests. The soft core takes the sting out of the ball and is the gentler choice for sensitive arms. With power 5 and control 8 out of 10, it is clearly built for precision.
With a forgiveness rating of 6.6 out of 10, it is more forgiving than 72% of the teardrop-shaped rackets in our comparison. 2 of the 21 shops in our comparison stock this racket, with prices from €359.95 to €359.95.
