    Hey Nana thanks so much for the shout outs and the love! 🙏
    I do have some ideas coming in regards to Squash strings and tensions to make some future videos on :)
    I have decided on the V2 125NS, since prior using the Evolution before this I have taken a liking to thinner grips and this is a happy medium for me. My racket is starting to get a little bit exposed at the top area from wall scraps and dings, but it's still holding up great 😎

      Hey Ken
      Anytime 🙏🏾
      How do you find the V2 compared to the V1?

    • @TactileRacquetPerformance
      @TactileRacquetPerformance 8 днів тому

      Love it so much more!
      Initially transitioning from the Airshaft to the V1, I did not like it. I stuck with it and gave it a bit of time and I finally adjusted to it, but it still just felt very stiff to me, the overall balance was more head heavier than the Airshaft too.
      On V2, all of these things are addressed.
      It feels like how a Carboflex should feel again 😁👌

    I’m impressed m8 your the only one in my entire life 47 years that has pronounced my last name correctly 😊 your a friend for life 😅 and of course I’ve gone back to the vibe just a bit more manoeuvrable for the volley and touch 👍

      🤣 I tried.
      Glad I got it right 🙏🏾
      Did you sell your V2s?
      I’ve still got my Vibes in case this run comes to an end.

    Another great video. I’ve just started playing with the new Makin racket, the 2.1, and absolutely love it - still with factory strings

    • @thesquashbagel
      @thesquashbagel  12 днів тому +1

      Those are some good factory strings in there.
      Was impressed with the 2.0 factory strings too

    Do you feel any vibration with the V2? I use to be a fan of Tecnifibre and still have a 125S. I've played with the X-Top and find that the vibrations that you feel are terrible. Thought it was that particular racket, I borrowed a few others and still feel the vibrations. I changed to the Head Speed 135 slim body and no vibrations at all. Other players in my club have also said the same thing about the X-Top.

      Yeah the XTop V1 had a few vibrations when hit off centre.
      I didn’t feel any vibration on the 120, with the factory strings or after I have restrung 👌🏾

      @ damn i saw this racket is way too expensive. The 125 airshaft is reasonably priced though how does it compare to the pro lite?

      Didn’t try the 305 strings in the FX but very different.
      It’s more similar to the Raw Pro 2.0

      I was in Cape Town for the GrowthPoint IPT this year.
      We only played a WPCC and Franschoek.
      Didn't get to see the other clubs unfortunately.
