Wilson Hammer
Rival Stretch oversized 112
square inch head Tennis Racket. This racket is marked as a demo but has
never been strung or used which is evidenced by the plastic shrink wrap
that is still on the handle. The oversized H Rival is a stretch frame
27.5
inches
long and weighs 8.9 ounces unstrung. It has a 23.5/28/25 mm dual taper
beam utilizing isogrid technology with width where you need stability
and power and a thinner beam for feel and spin. It is a 100% Graphite
construction. This racket is balanced at 37 cm for more weight through
the hit.
The H-Rival comes with the Wilson ProFeel shock absorber pictured.
Recommended String Tension is 53 to 63 lbs in this 16X20 design where I
recommend going down three lbs in the cross strings to equalize
pressure throughout the string bed.
The HRival has consistently tested at 71 or higher on my Babolat RDC machine which would put it towards the top regarding stiffness (power) of any racket being made today.
Reviews indicate it is very good for players who desire to hit the ball hard with a lot of spin. Although the oversize version has a lot of power for depth on your groundstrokes, the tapered head makes it easier to hit angled passing shots
