@Jeremiah Cheng,
You have to pull off the grommets (the outer plastic shell you are
referring to) when the racquet is unstrung. Use an awl tool or anything
else that has a long, skinny point to help you get under the plastic and
lift it off the strings. They should pop off the outside of the frame.

@Henry Richards,
This would probably be a bit too big of a jump up in weight from your
Radical Lite. I’d recommend looking at the new Graphene Radical S, as it
will offer a similar feel but with a bit more heft.

@Yang Yang
The Blade 98 will offer more power and feel while the Speed Pro will give
you more control and spin. The Speed Pro will be more forgiving and will
allow you to take big swings at the ball and still stay in control.

Hi TW
My strings have just broke in my Speed S and I was wondering what would be
an ideal string for this racquet (including string tension). I am a 13yr
old looking for a mix of power and control in the string.
Hey TW,
I am an agressive baseliner who likes to hit heavy balls and quite often
come in to finish the point. I was wondering what racquet between the Speed
pro, Speed mp and Prestige pro would be a better choice for me. Also it
would be helpful if i could get some advice on what type of string to use
and possibly at what tension?
Thank you,
Does it come with a bag or cover?
How does this compare to the aero pro drive?
Which one among youtek ig speed mp (18×20), youtek ig extreme mp 2.0,
dunlop biomimetic 200+ and the graphene speed mp is a bettter frame for
baseline play.
How does this compare to the Babolat Pure Drive?
I currently use Wilson blx pro staff 90,but i end up hitting a few balls on
the rim especially with my two handed backhand.Should i consider switching
to this racket?Does it have good plow-through?
@Karl Jergmo,
The Ltd. edition “Black Beauty” is the same racquet except for the leather
grip.

Hi, Andy
Can you tell me which racket is the most “forgiving” and “easiest to play
with” for the intermediate player? The Head Youtek Graphene Speed Pro or
the Babolat Aero Pro Drive? And which one is the best racket overall in
your opinion?
Hi Andy,
I was about to buy this Graphene Speed Pro, but i read that a new version
is coming this november.
Can you confirm this?
Thanks

Hi Andy, I was wondering what racquet i should get, the head speed, wilson
steam99s, and wilson 95s. Could you tell me the pros of each racquet?
Thanks!
+Tennis Warehouse I currently play with the is speed 18×20 andI am thinking
of buying the graphene speed pro, but want to wait for the new version to
come out and see which one I prefer. When is the new racket coming out and
what do you know about it?
Thanks,
~Nick
I currently play with the Babolat Aeropro Lite. It serves great, but I
would like something with more control and feel (without sacrificing
service power). Would you recommend this or the MP? I’m a
beginner/recreational player.
What difference does this racket have with the IG Extreme Pro? Apart from
the different patters and the material
When will the new head speed come out?
@Karim Essam,
It depends on your style of play and personal preference. If you have
shorter, slower strokes and want more power, comfort and playability, try a
nice soft multifilament like Tecnifibre NRG2. If you have longer, faster
strokes and need more control, spin and durability, go with a nice
polyester like Head Sonic Pro Edge.
Andy, TW
ok so I’m debating on which racquet to switch to between the graphene speed
pro or the graphene speed mp?
from you guys stand point of playing with both sticks can you tell me the
differences? I hit a flat ball and I’m looking for a little more pop and
lots of spin but not at the price of my arm so which between the two suits
me? +Tennis Warehouse
Hello TW what kind of string you suggest if i want spin and control and i
can generate my own power?
Between this and the Radical, which one do you prefer?
hi guys i am 16 years old and currently have a 300g racket and is
headlight, i have been reading that this racket`s weight is evenly
distributed will i notice the weight difference that much, thank you. If
there any other recommendations around that weight but range please help
me!
I own the previous version if I were to buy this one would it fit right
into my game like my old versions?
