Intermediate level players looking for forgiving performance have an Xtra reason to give the XS 102 a try. Babolat's new Xtra Sweetspot technology provides a larger sweetspot with strategically placed Pebax plastic at 3 and 9 o'clock in the frame. This helps off-center hits maintain power and stay on line. At 10 ounces strung, our testers found the XS easy to create racquet head speed from the baseline while extremely maneuverable at net. The forgiving stringbed makes it easy to put away volleys. The open string pattern provides good access to spin while providing plenty of pop. The Babolat XS 102 is a good option for the 3.0 to 4.5 level player looking for a more forgiving racquet while maintaining power.
