How It Felt in My Testing
The first thing I checked with Head Gravity Team was whether the round profile matched the way it scored in the finder. It felt most honest when I kept the swing compact and let the racket show its natural balance.
In points, Head Gravity Team made the most sense for control, all-court, comfort. It did not feel like a random recommendation; the useful part was how clearly it pushed me toward its intended pattern.
My favorite check was alternating a defensive lob, a first volley, and then a controlled overhead. That sequence usually exposes whether a racket is actually playable or just impressive for one shot.
