What kind of tennis racket should i buy?
I'm looking for a new tennis racket. I have a midsized back swing, i'm an all- around player, but mostly at the base line. I'm looking to improve my power and accuracy. I also want to have good topspin when I hit. I would prefer Babolat, but anything would work. Anything you can recommend?
What kind of speed are we talking about with that medium swing? I'll give you an idea:
A pro like Federer hits his forehand around the 72 mph mark when he rallies; it means that the shot he uses in a neutral situation moves at around 72 mph. His attacking ball on transition can crank around the 85-90 mark and he maxes out at 95-100 mph on a dead winner.
A college player in tournament typically hits his rally forehand at 65-68 mph. He take on the offense around 80-82 and often maxes out around the 90 mph mark.
Also, I am wondering what kind of trajectory you are producing; are they low and direct or more high and loopy?
DETERMINE YOUR LEVEL AND STYLE
You might have trouble gaging your rally pace and answering me about the type of trajectories you are the most likely to use, so I'll give you a point on which to focus. A court typically had some space behind the baseline; the ITF recommends that this distance must never be under 21 feet and that is about what is used in public areas. If you rally forehand hits the back fence off the first bounce, it's a good rally forehand and we'll consider (if we're not speaking of moon balling or lobs) that it's a solid shot.
For the trajectories, we'll make the difference between three and we'll use Soderling, Federer and Nadal as our examples.
1.FLAT
The first trajectory is what people call "flat," although it is not perfectly flat - it must have some spin on it. Soderling hits hard, low and deep; that's our flat forehand.
2.VERSATILE
The second trajectory is that of Federer's forehands; it's quite higher than a flat shot, though it is not loopy yet. The trajectory is a bit higher, still very deep, but the arc is noticeable by the end.
3.LIFTER'S FOREHAND
The last trajectory is that of Nadal; it's obviously high, often lands shorter and if you were set by the side of the court, you'd notice the round shape of this shot. It makes a very obvious arc.
THE CHOICE
The choice will be influenced mainly by those two elements: the weight and balance will highly be influenced by your ability to produce pace; the string pattern and head size will be influenced by what you are looking in a stroke; and the beam cross section will be determined by both combined.
As your increase the length of your swing, enhance your level of play, your ability to produce pace increases. However, this also makes it harder to control the ball and the impact forces the racket to twist a lot more than it would if you had a slower swing. Having a compact swing raise a similar problem to that of being of a lesser level: you cannot produce much energy. Thus, slower swings will not benefit from a heavy frame, although powerful player will highly enjoy their heavier frame as they will force - by inertia - the racket to remain along its plane. The balance will be determined by your level of play, mostly. If you are a good player, you tend to be able to swing correctly and, thereby, a head heavy balance is ruining your net play while it doesn't improve your baseline game. Players typically tend to play with more head light rackets as they get better. The head size and string pattern can vary for many reasons, but mainly, if you look at how you strike the ball, you understand what is suitable. An open string pattern and a little bigger head size might be more suitable for a lifter while the opposite will fit more a flat hitter. Finally, the beam cross section will make the frame be classified as stiff or more flexible. Stiffer frames absorb less energy and are thus suitable for player who might be looking after some additional pop while a thin beam is usually more flexible and provides a livelier feel.
Here are some references you can use:
Medium swing:
Head size: between 100 and 105
Weight: 9.5 to 10,2oz strung
Weight balance: 2 to 4pts head light
Beam section: 21 or more millimeters
If you are swinging more flat, try a closed string pattern (18x20); if you tend to look for high net clearance and spin, go for an open string pattern (16 x 18 or 19).
If you have a faster, longer swing:
Head size: between 90 and 100
Weight: 10,3 to 12,5oz strung
Weight balance: 5 or more pts head light
Beam section: 21 or less millimeters
