The Kyra is StarVie's model for getting started: 340 to 360 grams, round shape, low balance. The low weight makes it especially handy, which helps when your stroke technique hasn't settled yet and the racket often has to be brought back into position. The EVA Flex core stays soft and keeps the ball on the face for longer. We have not played this model ourselves; the information comes from the manufacturer.
At 350 g, it is lighter than three quarters of all models in our comparison: quick to handle and easy on the arm, but more of the power in attack has to come from your own swing. Head shape Round means: a large, central sweet spot – lots of control and forgiveness, little power of its own; 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 9 out of 10, it is clearly built for precision.
With a forgiveness rating of 10.0 out of 10, it is more forgiving than 93% of the round models in our comparison. 7 of the 21 shops in our comparison stock this racket, with prices from €89.01 to €127.43 – a €38 difference for the same model.
