Head Speed always gave me shoulder and arm issues. I’ve played with the clash, Gravity and Ezone as well. They were all great on my arm. Currently playing the Ezone 98, which has been fantastic!
@@inv3st_eth839 I see no interest for a beginner to use a 98. Should begin with a 100, not to stiff (60-67 ra) , not to heavy (280-300g), manœuvrable (max sw 320). The you'll see.
@@jabirout thank you very much. Maybe you can suggest some racquets like that ? Thanks 🙏🏻 Interesting if i take babolat pure aero.... is it a good for beginner? How much would be the swing weight when it is with strings ... or that stiffness? Also maybe to take something from Wilson or wonex? I generally want something that is a very good racquet like to grow with!! Some quality one maybe which is good in spinning and also is comfortable not to get injuries
@@inv3st_eth839 babolat is known for it's stiff racquets, lot of people don't want to play with them anymore. I would suggest Wilson clash, head gravity mp, Yonex vcore 100 (or 100l), Yonex vcore pro 100 (or 100l), head instinct, prince tour 100 290.
I agree, I used to play with the rs price 300, there is a very effective dampening mesh in the handle, the rs 300 was 67 ra but felt like sub 60 to me. With a soft poly, was a very nice frame.
i just tested head speed mp and blade (same string/same tension) with a shreded elbow , i can say head speed mp give me tougher vibration than wilson blade, so u can take out speed mp. i think clash and gravity mp are the real comfort racquets here.
I have played with all 5 racquets mentioned in this video and own 3 of them,which are Gravity, Speed, and Blade. I really don’t think Speed mp should belong in this category. Wilson Blade is known for its comfort but it gave me elbow problem. I don’t find it to be an arm friendly racquet. Out of these 5 racquets I find Clash and Gravity to be most comfortable racquets.
I have used the Ezone 98 for the last two years solid and its a great frame and personally I wouldnt say it is uncomfortable. However having used the Percept 100 for the last few weeks I really cant see me going back to the Ezone. I would say the Percept 100 is not only more comfortable, but also has more control and greater spin in my view. Both are 16 x 19 string pattern so you could argue that the spin potential should be equal. However I did find the power in the Ezone a little strong at times and therefore I sometimes hit long. I find the Percept 100 easier to control and easier to apply the spin required to keep balls in and as I say I would pick this as more of a comfort racket over the Ezone!
You don't mention the most arm-friendly racquets of all -- the Wilson Triad Three and Five. I've owned or demoed multiple racquets that claim to be arm-friendly, and the Triads win hands-down. I haven't tried the Head models mentioned, but I might. I've always liked Head racquets. Also, I owned the Yonex Ezone 98, and it killed my elbow. It's like hitting the ball with a 2x4 compared to the Triad Three or Five.
Looking at Prince--not O port line--Clash 108. Triad oversized.. Blade 104, (maybe too light.? ) something oversized and plush. My Ulnar nerve is a hurting. Also CBD and Tylenol..lol.
Uhm no. Prestige has nothing to do with comfort. It was never designed to. Prestige is for players who have patience of steel and can control timing down to a T. Otherwise Prestige plays like a wooden board
@@dkrawk8309 When was the last time you played with a Prestige? I have the 2021 Prestige Pro and 2019 Prestige Mid 93sq. 2021 is really soft, RA is 61. It feels soft compared to most other racquets I tried. They are not as unfriendly as you say. At least I play fine with both.
@@Stu49583 I played with youtek mp ig about 5 minutes ago, with rip control at 61lb(which is ridiculous) Compared to my babolat aero pro gt , prestige is a Porsche, babolat is monster truck
@@dkrawk8309 ah okay, I never played with that version so that one might not be as soft. The current 2023 Prestige has an RA of 58, which is very low. Anyway, it is definitely not the most forgiving racquet line.

I agree. I hated the feel of the speed MP. it felt muted and udnerpowered. Ezone rocks
Gravity, Clash and Vcore are the best arm friendly lines
Hey there,
Ezone 98 is so stiff, got an injury with it.
Put the Vcore 98 in the comfort ones but definetly not the ezone 98.
may i ask is 98 frame good for begginer player? or to stick to 100 one? i am very beginner , 60kg and 33 years old

Me also!
Great picks. I also found the Tecnifibre T-Fight RS 295 to be surprisingly comfortable, as much so as Clash and Gravity.

Hi Any budget prince or solinco?
speed mp sucks!
@@dropshot118 dont expect a free racquet from.head for.this
I'm good. Im happy with my ezone. @@agradina
@@agradina 😁 lol, but it's just like Jokerv itches raquet...but not really..😂

Never on sale ..lol..i would like to try one even blade 98.was good..but the 104 looks a little too light. Looking at slight oversize.

Not sure why you didn't include the Wilson Three and Five, super arm friending and frames that have been around (and updated) for over 20 years.
EZONE 100 is as good as 98 for confort?
Ezone 98 is one of the most uncomfortable racquets out there 😂
How come ProKennex isn’t there?
Ezone's arm friendly?
It's got a stiff frame, bro.
Why leave out the Prestige? It is at least as soft as the Gravity.

My Prince Textreme Tour 100 is easier on the arm than any Ezone.
Im sorry head speed is comfortable for what? Hitting yourself in head?
