Winner of the 2004 Summer TENNIS Magazine Editor's Choice
award.
A light and maneuverable player's racquet, the Liquidmetal Instinct
combines an 11.2 ounce strung weight with a 4 points head light balance. The 100 sq. inch
head size provides a stringbed that offers plenty of feel without sacrificing comfort. A good
level of power is available, useful when seeking a little extra juice on serves and
groundstrokes. The overall power level of the Instinct places it about midway between the
power offered by the Liquidmetal Radical Midplus and Oversize. As with other racquets in the
Liquidmetal line, the Instinct features Liquidmetal, Twin Tube, Total
Sweetspot Construction and Intelligence technologies. Best suited to all court
4.0+ NTRP level players looking for a racquet that's as much at home at the net, as
it is at the baseline.
