Maria Sharapova got together with Prince o3 to design a racket for women that they could really use. As such, it comes with her signature and in her favorite colors. This is not a novelty player racket though, this is the real deal and one that will get the job done admirably. We were prepared to deal with yet another vanity racket, so it was a nice surprise to find that this one is actually quite good.
The balance is ideal for women players and should reduce the strain that is common from playing with a racket that was intended to be used by a man. It’s very light weight, even when it’s strung and the feel is very light without feeling cheap. The one major problem people have with this racket is its price, which is a bit high considering. Most stores retail this model for close to $200 or more, but at the end of the day, you do get what you pay for.
The racket comes in several different grip sizes and offers a great deal of customization. We found that the grip was very comfortable and it didn’t wear badly like so many grips do. You won’t have to worry about taping this one too much, it’s actually quite durable. We appreciated the attention to detail that went into this racket and the company has done a great job of making one that you can really get a lot of use out of. We were very pleased with the results and found that our accuracy slightly improved, as we also didn’t notice any arm fatigue after using the racket.
Racquet Specifications:
# Headsize: 100 sq. in.
# Length: 27.00 in.
# Weight (strung): 11.25 oz.
# Stiffness (Babolat RDC): 67
# Balance: 13.09 in. Head Light
# Cross Section: 23mm/25mm/22mm Tapered Beam
# Swingweight: 317 kg*sq. cm
# String Pattern: 16x19
# Grip: Prince Duratac
# Prince Power Level: 1000
This is a great middle of the road racket for women and we found that it was easily one of the best we’ve tested in this class. Women sometimes have a hard time getting a racket that is made for their arms, wrists and elbows, let alone ones that come in the right grip size. It’s nice to see more manufacturers moving towards catering to women and so far, this is one of the nicest entries on the market that we have seen.
It’s a racket that is good for both high level beginners, intermediate players and advanced players, and there is plenty of room to grow in your game with this racket. That is probably its biggest selling point, since many rackets fall down when it comes to take players beyond a certain level in their game. This is one racket that will serve you for many years, and it’s more than worth the purchase price when you consider just how much use you’ll get out of it.
