This silver edition of the V1 features an all new paint and graphic scheme. The Classic V1 was introduced in 1994 and was one of the original 'tweener racquets featuring comfort technology. It remains, well, a classic, for players wanting 'tweener characteristics in a comfortable, standard length racquet. Labeled a "virtual extension of the arm" by TENNIS Magazine in 1995, the Classic V-1 vaulted to popularity throughout the mid '90s as an arm saver and remains one of Volkl's best selling racquets.
The first racquet to incorporate Volkl's patented Big Grommets, the Classic V1 maneuvers like a midplus but has the forgiveness of an oversize. Volkl's Dual Damping Grip effectively reduces shock and vibration for a comfortable, dampened response. Indeed, the Classic V1 has a distinctly cushioned feel, yet retains touch and some racquet feedback. The Classic V1 will appeal to a broad cross-section of players. Improving beginners will find adequate power in the 102 square-inch head, while intermediate and advanced players can adjust string tension to gain the control they require.
