Best suited to intermediate and advanced players, the VCore Xi Team Plus is strategically weighted with high density urethane near the tip of the frame. The result is improved stability in the hitting zone and greater ball speed off the face of the racquet. At 27.5 inches long and weighing under 11 ounces, the VCore Xi Team Plus supplies the player with the leverage and momentum to swing fast and create pace. The open 16x20 string pattern supplies plenty of bite so that the power can be controlled with spin. Taken together these specs add up to precise and heavy balls. At net the added reach helps with defensive stabs, and there's also more than enough pop to keep the ball deep or hit blistering overheads. On serves the added length translates into slices with more action and kickers with more explosive bounces. Best suited to 4.0+ players looking for a maneuverable extended length racquet with easy access to power and spin.
