  • Reviewing The NEW Tecnifibre TF-X1 (V2)
    I’m back in Monaco for the Monte Carlo Masters, testing the brand new Tecnifibre TF-X1 V2. This racket has a great blend of power and comfort and I share my thoughts on the 300 and 305 versions.
    I was fortunate enough to be testing them with former ATP 202, Laurent Rochette. We even played a tiebreak which I’ll show you in my next video!
    Let me know if you have any questions about the frames or if you have any suggestions for future reviews.

      My weight is 310g unstrung, no dampner and I'm about to put an overgrip on it. It's a bit heavy but it does the Job but sometimes I think maybe a bit too heavy as I hit out sometimes. The racket I'm using now is a prince vortex 310g

    Is the grip shape quite rectangular like old Head racquets or have they updated to something more square?

    @amies8761 Před 4 měsíci

    Unrelated-I know, but can I ask what duffle bag you’d recommend, not for racquets, but for training aids and equipment? It doesn’t need to be massive, but I’d like it to fit a 55cm wide agility ladder. If you don’t use or don’t know of any that’s completely fine, just thought I would ask. Thanks!

      @TheTennisMentor  Před 4 měsíci +1

      It’s never easy to change rackets, especially after 10 years using the same line. Nowadays (as I don’t compete as much) I love testing different frames.
      When I’m coaching I’ll switch between rackets from day to day (not advised) just for fun. But if I have a match, I tend to go back to my trusty speed. You will see me play a tiebreak with the TFX1 in next week’s video!
      Ps. I really want to test out Sinner’s specs so will see what I can do!

  • @a2casius
    @a2casius Před 4 měsíci +2

    Thanks for the review. The 98 clearly looks unstable and the 100 is not as whippy. Shame cause I think I would have liked to have tried the 98 but there's clearly a design flaw within the hoop which is making it so unstable. Yes weight could help but that would just make it less manoeuvrable and perhaps too heavy anyway after all the necessary customisation. Will pass on this one.

    • @TheTennisMentor
      @TheTennisMentor  Před 4 měsíci +1

      I’ve said to others before, it’s always worth a demo, as what I feel and what someone that plays differently to me feels are often different! I’d say I really enjoyed hitting with the 305 and didn’t notice a lack of stability until I picked up the 300 which felt nicer to me!

    • @a2casius
      @a2casius Před 4 měsíci +1

      @@TheTennisMentor Feel is very subjective but I was referring to the imagery and from what I could see, the 305 was clearly twisting at impact. As you mentioned, the 300 has a bigger head so physically a bit more stable. Same is true for example in the Wilson Clash 98 vs the 100. Thanks for the review.

    @schmidtler03 Před 4 měsíci

    I am a beginner tennis player and at the moment i play with a Wilson Blade 275g. I want to get a new Racket which is a bit heavier. Now i am consider if i get the T-Fight 295g or the TF-X1 v2 300g. Which one do you think fits best ?

    • @TheTennisMentor
      @TheTennisMentor  Před 4 měsíci +2

      Theres a lot that goes into choosing the right racket but what I would say is that the TF-X1 is very forgiving, a bit easier to play with than the TFight range.

    Love the channel and Ashley is great but I turn off when I see a racquet review from him as he's not willing to be critical.

    • @TheTennisMentor
      @TheTennisMentor  Před 4 měsíci +1

      Thanks for the feedback! For me it’s about explaining what I like and don’t link about the racket and giving you information about who the racket is suited to. I haven’t tested a racket that is BAD for everyone yet… some haven’t suited my game but would suit others really well.
      I think that I have a pretty good feel for how a racket will perform for others that play differently to me, and so can share an open minded review rather than saying that my favourite racket is the one that everyone should use!
      I’m not sure that you watched all of this video as I explain which one I preferred and why?
      Let me know how you’d like me to be more critical.
