    Enjoy the power for sure, especially now that I'm 65, as a 4.0 player this racket gives me all the versatility that I need around the court, whether in double or in single, sometimes the ball will sail long on me, I prefer that mistake then knocking it in the net, thanks again.

    Hey, do you think the head extreme is good for one hand backhand for control and which one of the extreme is the best for single hand backhand and control?

    I use to play with an older Extreme version, you've convinced me with your latest Boom MP review, and, its definitely the best frame I've ever had.😃

    Ive wanted an extreme ever since I playtested the 2022 extreme mp and tour a couple of months back and really liked them both. Thought about waiting for the 2024 models before deciding/buying, but ultimately decided that those tiny improvements don’t justify the increased price of the new model. The deals on 2022 frames were and are too good to pass up! Can’t wait to receive my two new 2022 extreme mp rackets in the mail in a couple of days.

    Been using the Babolat Aero for 3 years, old version and current. I'm officially changing to the Extreme MP. Found effortless crazy amount of spin and power from the extra weight in the top of the racket. Allowed for precision accuracy on serves (something I found the Aero's lacked). The plow-through is also better on the MP so I find I'm getting more power and spin compared to the Aeros.

      Hey im researching a bit about what string setup i should go if i would demo/purchase this racket,
      one recomendation was "ALU" (he mentioned it holds 4hours play time, which is a nogo for me)
      than
      a atp top 10 player uses it with sigmun pro firestorm 24/24 kg which sounds good I think,
      than
      MSV Focus-HEX read somewhere
      what have you decided?
      Best

    Great content! One dilemma I - and I imagine other weekend warriors - have is a spinny forehand and a flat backhand. Not sure if the best thing is to get something spin oriented to help the BH or just go for a flatter oriented frame/pattern to control it more

    If I enjoy playing with extreme tour with lynx tour 53 lbs, is that worth upgrading to extreme pro or mp? I used to play single back hand but now back to double. Reference: I personally do not enjoy playing with boom mp with lynx tour cause its somehow too stiff and not getting much ball contact and the ball flies out

    • @anthonyhsu3182
      @anthonyhsu3182 2 місяці тому

      there’s usually a grip that came with a new racket, and it’s totally fine playing with it. BUT since you probably need that friction with new grips, it would be a good practice to buy over grip and apply it over the original grip so that you can change it once a while. Changing replacement grips are much more expensive as well
