This gives, uh, more softness in the horizontal plane of the frame , and the racket becomes, well, better for spin. This is the racket Victoria Azarenka plays with. And, well, the 100L version has a 64 flex, which is very good for juniors. But if we go back to this racket, uh, to the ultra 100-300g, then compared to previous, uh, years, there is also technology used in the handle.Watch S
Overall, the Ultra 100V5 is a great update to the Ultra 100 line, which has quietly built a loyal following. The appeal of this racket lies in its lack of a prolevel frame. It's easy to use, has a great design, and offers a modern blend of spin, power, and feel.Watch

I have very mixed feelings about this racket because I can't decide whether I love it for its beautiful looks and the way it manages to combine really good power and really good control allin-one racket or if I hate it for its unforgiveness and small sweet spot. I play tested this racket for a longer period of time than I usually do with other rackets.Watch G
It seems like it's better than the V4 in pretty much every aspect of the game except for the paint job because I do have to say that although this is not bad, it looks a little bit like a toy. Whereas the previous one like with that very dark blue kind of like matte finish, I absolutely love that design.Watch M
