Head Flexpoint 4 Tennis Racquet Review
Our Review

The Head Flexpoint 4 is the 2005 update of the Head Liquid Metal 4 that won a 2003 Tennis Magazine Editors Choice award. Its an excellent choice for Intermediates seeking an equalizer racquet that can produce bigger shots with shorter strokes.

The reason for the update is the addition of Heads unique Flexpoint frame. The Flexpoint design allows the racquet head to cup the ball on impact. This cupping action enhances feel, spin and control.

Head Titanium Ti-S6 Tennis Racquet Review

Our Review:
Tennis Magazine gave A’s in all four categories. Power, Comfort, Control and Maneuverability. One of the best all time rated racquets.

The Head TI-S6 tennis racquet is the #1 selling racquet in America for a reason. Head produced the TI-S6 to have all the answers for the club player with a compact swing. Its superior titanium design allows a level of control rarely seen in a racquet with this much power. The maneuverability of a light weight racquet is there, but we were surprised by how solid it was on off center shots.

Head Metallix 4 Tennis Racquet The Head Metallix 4 is a new slightly more control-oriented option in Head’s line. Like the Metallix 10 and Metallix 6, the Metallix 4 retains the use of Flexpoint technology and offers several new technologies for 2006.

Head Metallixis incorporated into the shaft section, making the Metallix 4 lighter and stiffer for more power.Metallixis made of a matrix of carbon fibers and a new crystalline metal alloy that is 1000 times smaller than typical metals.Head Stabilizereliminates racquet vibration and ensures the ultimate in comfort on every shot.Head LMS (Longer Main String) design lowers the bridge section to create a larger hitting surface without making the racquet any larger. The Metallix 4 is a more control-oriented option to the Metallix 6 and Metallix 10, yet still offers ample power and stability. Surprisingly controlled thanks to the “flexpoints” cut into the frame at 3:00 and 9:00.

Wilson n1 Tennis Racquet Lightweight, stiff, and potent, Wilson’s n1 racquet helps take your tennis skills to the next level. The racquet is equipped with Wilson’s nCode nanotechnology, which releases untapped performance from within the racquet to deliver unparalleled stability, greater frame integrity, and explosive power. At one billionth of a meter, the nano scale is too small to see. But the difference in an nCoded racquet’s playability is too big to overlook. Racquets are made of billions of carbon fibers linked together and heat shaped. Although the carbon fibers are strong, light, and resilient, voids still exist at the nanoscopic level between the individual fibers, creating a multitude of stress points. By reinforcing the molecular structure of the frame and filling these voids, nCode technology improves a racquet’s performance while still preserving its unique playing characteristics.

The n1’s terrific feel and abundant power make it ideal for beginners and recreational players who prize control and precision. Specific details include a 115-square-inch head that weighs only 9 ounces strung, a Micro-Dry Feel grip, and a 27.9-inch length.

Specifications:

• Head size: 115 square inches
• Length: 27.9 inches
• Weight: 9 ounces (strung)
• Balance: 11 points HH
• Cross section: 30/27 mm
• Type of swing: compact
• String tension: 55 to 65
• Flex: Stiff
• Composition: 30 percent graphite high modulus nCoded/70 percent graphite nCoded
• Grip: Micro-Dry Feel

Customer Review: Is it worth buying products on sale?
I believe Wilson rackets are durable …but i guess i was just so unlucky that the item (ncode n1 racquet) sent to me has a crack on it which I didnt notice until last April 25 when it gave in…the crack appeared. In just less than a month of use it gave it despite the fact that im just a beginner and just having my tennis clinic thus no much power yet when i hit the ball…how i wish i could have a replacement.
