Troubleshooting

Racket feels unbalanced

The 330mm balance point is standard for this model. If it feels off, ensure your grip is consistent and consider if you are accustomed to lighter rackets.

Reduced spin on shots

Lack of power

Frame feels too stiff

The Metallix technology provides rigidity. If discomfort arises, ensure you are using appropriate technique to absorb shock and consider a vibration dampener.
