Best raquet i have ever found, ive been searching for years for this type of raquet i have about 35raquets accross the board of all pro raquets and they were always missing somthing for my style of tennis, the ripstick plays perfect with my big hitter style, even on low swing shots, balls still goes deep, great slice spin, but the power on forhand when u go the rip that shot is unmatched, i use yonex polytour revv @ 23-22KG, 1,30mm, just perfect for this raquet string, i have tried aaobut 7-8strings, and the poly revv is perfect balance, to get power, spin when u need it, but not ultra spin like ALU power, the ripstick, defently not a easy raquet to play with, defently need some decent level of player, but if you can tame the raquet u have somthing no other raquet can match, Cheers to prince for making such out of the box raquets while other brands just pump out same old style of raquet realease after release,, also the mention the base grip is resitek pro, best best grip i have ever held out of all the raquets i have,, defently reccomend it to power players and defently not reccomend it to amateuers and low power hitters

I am a beginner. I had my first tennislesson a day ago. I like to play with spin. Do you recommend me this racket as a beginner?

are you getting paid by Prince?😂 just seeing this comment on every ripstick review

Congrats on the 28k subs. More power sir

I just bought a used one. I am excited to hit with it from time to time. I am trying Diablo 17 at 48 lbs. It might be too loose, but will tighten the next time. It looked so fun that O could not help myself.

Coach Gu wanted me to tell you all that he thinks it's "actually not a bad racquet".

It's actually quite good. It's basically a more forgiving/flexible Aero Pro Drive with a bit more control as well as a more controlled launch angle. It's really better for folks who use more modern strokes and spin.

So much better view, thank you!

I was really looking forward to this review. I love Prince and the O3 ports! I experienced arm issues last season so I've been wanting another Prince to move on to. What would you recommend tension-wise to mitigate some of the power?

I like the camera angle on the rally.

🤣 oh come on ,don't !

My take is that this is a Clash competitor, using ports instead of fancy flexible carbon mapping to get comfort in a high-powered racquet. The ports also get you a bit more swing speed and an intimidating whistle, but decrease the feel.

Coach Rob has a classic stroke. He is very smooth.

This is a good, new camera angle for hitting.

Like the Wilson Hammer which I am still playing with (currently using razor code G17 at 50lbs on hammer 5.0) , different stringing could make huge difference. It is fun to try different string to control the power on this sort of powerful rackets. I also owned Thunderstick before.

Thunderstick has a lot of power also. I think I strung it at around 70. It produced a huge serve.....hard to keep in the court on ground strokes

REminds me of the old Wilson Pro staff colours

racquet of the century

It is a Hammer.

Hey, mate I just want to help you out with your camera angle in the shop, right now your camera is picking up a reflection from your front window display because it's extremely bright outside, it's that faint blue light you see coming on and off on your chest, to avoid this I suggest either you angle away from your front door when it's really bright outside or wait till it's darker outside. Keep up the content coming, thoroughly informative 👍.

So it's good for beginners and or seniors who don't have technique or lack fitness to generate their own power

Do you think this would be elbow friendly?

Is it like a Pure Aero Tour?

I saw the Slinger bag ball machine behind you, would you introduce and review it someday ?

329 of swingweight is high, it should be 325 (295 unstrung), maybe yours is higher due to the heavier weight that should be 317-318 gr strung instead of yours 323? The stiffness is 64 strung or unstrung?

Yellow Cyclone at 50 lbs on a 100inch racquet?, OF COURSE is going to be a rocket launcher. Try 1.30 Cyclone Black color at 55 lbs you will notice a BIG dif

Exactly!

You should do the racket review with the right tension. Too loose of coarse you can’t control it

I've used Prince for I'd say 5-6 years now. Being shorter older, muscle in all the wrong places I appreciate the added power. My baseline game really is wanting. Here's the rub I'm on my 3rd Prince and yet have I experienced control for all that added power. I think the design fault is those O ports just my opinion. The draw of course was the bigger sweetspot, more arm friendly. I think that's about to change. I'm hopeful I can get the same power with more accuracy and control from a Yonex Isometric, probably in the 98 size. Anyway this is a good spin racket but hefty for a Prince IMO. YONEX here we come.

I love old school Prince for the same arm friendly reasons... An old O3 Red. I tried to go to the O3 Beast 104 and found even though I loved the feel that it swung much heavier than it's specs. I'm on a Yonex Vcore Pro right now and so far so good! Good luck in your racquet journey!

Coach Rob: he don’t give a frock.

this racket is extremely powerful even at 55

“I remember when they had the original ripstick” ...all I can think of is the skateboard

its not rainbow its German flag orrrr Wilson Pro Staff Classic 6.1 colors :)

beam is way too chunky. no wonder it's all power.

prince should pack it up already. once isner leaves

1st!

Only head and babolat are op. Rest all rip
