Would be great (and boom mp with lead)

Great video as always 🙂 Can you please also compare all thin beam (22 mm) racquets together such as Gravity, Blade, Prince Phantom etc.

Great review! BTW your hitting partner has very good form and techniques.

Thanks!

Have you tried Prestige MP L? I think you noticed about it’s specs that could suit you. Wait for its review!

Which racket do you recommend for Western Grip forehand?

Nice vid as always. Thanks for sharing. I bought a 2nd 2024 Speed MP as I liked my first so much. Now will be searching for best string setup. I’m not into really stiff or uncomfortable strings. Any ideas for good poly setups and tensions after your play tests with Speed MP 2024?

Not sure if Sync will be too stiff for you. In that case, try Razor soft.

I demoed both racquets in match play, as well as a Tournament… The Blade 100 is a platform racquet in every aspect. The swing weight of the Speed MP I had received was noticeably higher, but the Blade was pretty much anemic! My friend/opponent noticed I had zero plow with the Blade 100… beautiful racquet, but it needs a lot of customization to make it an advanced 100.

I disagree. My hitting partner said that i had way mpre power and control with blade 100...and hands were much faster with blade as well.

@@dlw2982 What level are you (and) your hitting partner? I demoed it brand new laced with ALU Power at 53lbs, and my hitting partner is a coach / USTA opponent immediately noticed the lack of plow, etc.. I’m assuming you’re a beginner/intermediate player? It’s a beautifully designed 100, but not for heavy hitters or anyone at 4.0+ … unless you’re just muscling the ball, but that doesn’t last very long.

Hi Tan! Great video as always! I play with a one handed backhand, what’s your current top 5 for 100sq control oriented rackets (thin beam, head light) ? Thanks

@@tantennis thanks a lot for the answer! Anyway I would not go over 300gr just not to get tired quickly. Which one do you like the most between Blade 100 and PS100? Are you gonna review Dunlop Cx 400 Tour? Sounds interesting racket on the web. Thanks

@@tatovicxcii100 I prefer PSX but it’s 315g anyway. For something below 300g, you can look at Gravity MP, PS97L, Percept 100 or 97L. And you can add leather grip or lead to the handle to make it more headlight.

Hey Tan is that the blacked out novak speed you’re holding ? How come no angles of that in the video and comments ?

Yes it is

It would have been even better to add the percept 100D into the comparison. I am thinking about buying one of those 3 and today the percept takes the lead, but who knows tomorrow as yesterday was the blade.... I tried the percept 97 and I love it but the sweet spot feels small

would be great if you could review the prostock Kblade 100 16x19 and the retail v9 100 blade

@tantennis

Never seen Kblade 100 pro stock in real life. Should be rare.

Blade is 330g with a dampener (+3-4g) and overgrip (+4-5g)? If so you're actually pretty much on spec with it too. But at that SW seems it came a bit more head heavy.

@tantennis

2 ай бұрын

It’s a Blade 100. Strung weight with dampener and overgrip should be 323g. If it’s Blade 98 then 328-330g is normal.

Having had both as my main stick, I agree that the speed is a little faster through the air, but not as much as you make it seem when you describe it. Some reasons why I think the speed is faster even at 23mm: - Aerodynamic throat (Blade is squared there) - Blade is foam filled, Speed is not. Beats me why foam filled rackets feel slower tho. - Blade has a much rounder head (Speed is more elongated)

@tantennis

Yea it’s not fast compared to other thinner beam frame.

Would you still prefer the speed mp over the blade 98?

@tantennis

I personally prefer Blade 98. Anyway I don’t think they’re comparable in most aspects. It’s not in the same umbrella.

I'm looking for a switch from ezone to one of the 100s possibly percept 100/100d, I tried the previous version of the head speed and I really didnt like slow swing speed and thick beam compared to ezone.

@vaderg5272

2 ай бұрын

I sold my Ezone 100 and transitioned to Speed MP24. Much better for my game. Ezone100 might have slight edge when it comes to power generation compared to Speed MP24. But in all other areas in my opinion the Speed MP is equivalent or better (equivalent spin, better stability, much better control, much better comfort)

how about percept 100 vs blade 100?

Мы тестили blade. Странные ощущения. Вроде все летит, но обод слишком узкий.

I recently got the 100 v9 and I just can't get the feel down. Was under spec as well at 317 sw. But when I hit with 98 v9 it just felt so much quicker through the air. The 100 didn't bring any of that and it also feels very muted to me. Was getting torched on heavy balls as well. Increasing the sw by 10 pts would be preferred for me but that will require a lot of hoop weight and mess with the balance too much... feel like I'm still searching. And might have to go back to 98s. Short guy 4.0 player a quicker racket seems to feel better for me.

@@dutchtacos I think because Blade 100 has thicker beam and I feel the weight around throat area which make it slow.

Speed MP is okay if you like that type of racquet but the 100sq Blade is just garbage. Simply doesn't work.
