Head Prestige MP Auxetic Review by Gladiators
Спорт
The Pro Prestige really didn’t impress us and even our fav auxetic technolog didn’t help. Here’s the MP version of the Prestige that is now almost the lightest version in the lineup for those who don’t know. With a 99 inch head and a weird but kinda cool 18 by 19 string pattern, did we like it any better? Watch the video till the grades to find out.
Spoiler Alert, we did!

“The modern game is all about the three F’s : 1. First serve 2. Forehand 3. Fitness”………Grisha : “ I start the point with my backhand” ……nice man haha

Hahahah I mean that's just the way it is. We don't play by the rules 😏 I serve with my backhand 😂
I got two of these from two different sources. Neither one of them had a swing weight anywhere near 334. They both had swing weights around 315 strung. I used lead to bring it up to about 330 SW and some lead on the handle to give a more headlight balance. This racquet is the best that head has come out with in a very long time. Good twist weight and the 18x19 pattern, along with the flex, remind me of the Head RadicalTrisys 260. Lots of spin and serves are insane with this if you have good technique and supply your own power. Love ‘em.
Thank you a lot gladiators!! It’s my racket of choice I just added 4 grams in the handle and strung with head hawk touch it’s perfect

Dude! This review is just awesome bro, I'm not a player that can handle to much weight, so this review really did great for me, I am definitely switching racquets. Could you also tell me about the best strings for this racquet, I currently use the yonex polytour pro.

Yes! To me MP-L felt like the perfect blend of modern and classic frames. Recently switched to using this racket from Gravity Pro for last 2.5 years, and I like it a lot!
Try out the MP L too, Murray used it for a few months at the start of the year
Hey Glads, how did this racket compare with the Blade 18x20?😊
Please do the Prestige MP-L. Stiffer layup, thicker frame and best 16x19 tighter mains and interestingly wide crosses. Perfect control oriented tweener imo.

The Auxetic MP-L (TGT334.2) uses the same TK334 mold (99", 21.5mm beam) as the MP (TGT334.1) and the layup is the same except for 5g less material distribution.
Finally you guys review my racket! 😜 Agree on all points although I find I love the old Tour a bit more.. something about it is more fun.. I think it's better for spin (more headlight balance)

how to compare with new radical 2023? good to switch between both or are they very different?
How is the prestige more forgiving than the gravity, even considering the gravity headsize/sweetspot?
Thanks!

Hey guys excellent review! I have a question, have either of you heard of a stop volley? I know in some countries that's the name for a drop volley, but I heard a "coach" say there is a different between a stop volley and drop volley can you tell me what the difference is if you believe there is one! Thanks 🙏 appreciate 👊🎾♥️🏆 congratulations on your point!!!
@gladiatorstribe

Thank you very much! They're pretty much the same thing. They're both pretty much short volleys. With the stop volley you just take the energy from the ball and make it land at about half court, where the opponent might reach but will end up giving you an easy ball to finish. With the drop volley you give the ball and extra effect to make it land super short, creating a dropshot.

Compare head radical MP vs head prestige MP? Which provides more depth?
I really wish you guys would review lighter rackets (280-290g). im currently looking for a universal rackets in this weight range and dont really know which one to choose, head speed team, maybe wilson pro staff 97L? Or maybe even go Pure Strike, i dont know

Reviewing lighter rackets we can't give an fully objective opinion. Simply because the main concern for us is always going to be the weight. We will think about a way around it in the future but for now ☹️

Im sure this one is much better than the clash 100 which you give better grades/points. The TWU tool shows it has alot of power, spin and sweetspot. other reviewers say it is in between the Speed and the Extreme.
I've been hunting for a Perstige my whole life. Areg will hook me up.

Try the Pro Staff v13 😉
I tried the Prestige Tour and it swung too heavy even though I did play well with it. I couldn't whip my serve around like I normally do and I didn't love the feeling of the racquet. It has this metallic quality about it, I sorta disliked it in that respect. I wish they made it a little softer and lighter and it would be perfect. This MP version has a similar SW so I kinda doubt I'd like it any better.
