Recommend me a Light Racket?

Question

I'm in the need of a new racket, I'm around a intermediate level of play and i use a lot of top spin. I currently have a Wilson N-Code N-Fury i have given up on it as i am finding it to heavy!

please help me find a new light racket suitable to my demands

thanks

Answer 1

Thats one of the lightest rackets that there are. If you are comfortable with the Ncode series then a lighter racket in that series  would be the Ncode Nfocus its about 9.7 ounces strung.

Answer 2

the Ncode N-fury is already a pretty light racket, at 10.2 or 9.9 oz, depending on the oversize or mid-plus (though perhaps yours is older/heavier?)

I personally use a Head Microgel Radical Mid-Plus which I find to be a very comfortable weight.  For Wilson, I've heard that the [K]Surge is a lighter racket that offers good performance.  The Dunlop 7Hundred is also a lighter racket that I've heard good things about.

See if you can get some of these (or other rackets) to demo; try getting three or four at once and compare them to your Wilson.  I find that's always the best way to see what feels better!

Good luck!

Answer 3

i think while there are racquets with lower weight than your nFury, you need to know that lightweight racquets are not always better. for example when returning heavy serves, lightweight racquets will perform worse than heavier ones. i'd suggest you consider developing some muscles in your arms before deciding to switch to lighter racquets.

in the meantime, i would recommend you to carefully look at the Head Liquidmetal 4. it is 9.5 oz / 270 grams unstrung (10.7oz / 303grams strung weight), but it would give you comfortable feel and also helps with the topspins. you can also find some lightweight racquets at the link below.

hope it helps :)
