Comments: I had elbow issues changed to v1 midplus with Gamma TNT RX 17. Elbow resolved. Racquet is powerful yet great touch and feel, good at net, can handle hard hitting. Can serve accurately and with spin.

Comments: The demo I got from Tennis Warehouse was brand new. I have no idea what it was strung at but I guess in the middle of spec. I play with the V1 Classic and this racquet is not in same ball park of classic. It has no power. It is too light at net. Once again volkl tried to improve the the V1 but have failed on this one.

Comments: More power and feel than the V1 Classic. More stable than the V1 Power Bridge (my least favorite of the V1 line). Fun cosmetic. My coach does not go easy on me and this racquet offers the forgiveness needed to keep up with a stronger player.

Comments: I demoed this racquet for a week. The one I got was brand new, grip still in the plastic wrapper. This is a very impressive offering from Volkl! I will be getting one soon. I really liked it, especially for doubles. The response is lively and pretty clean feeling-- not muted (may have also been the brand new Volkl strings- they were superb). No string dampener is needed as string 'ping' and frame vibrations are virtually non-existent. The light static weight and player-friendly overall balance makes this an extremely maneuverable frame to use coming forward in the court, and at net volleys are solid and precise with outstanding feel. From the back of the court power is on tap in abundance when needed, but it is not forced on you. My only minor gripe is the Volkl synthetic grip seems a little spongy, but it's not intolerable. Overall, I give this one an A+ for this racquet category. Thanks for the excellent demo program Tennis Warehouse!

Comments: Objective performance power/spin/directional control similar to my Babolat Pure Drive GT, but much easier on the joints. The feel of this V1 is really superb. Nearly no shock, no vibration, no wobble, even on off center shots. Organix material seems to be such an advantage, and this is even more pronounced in the V1 and X6 than in the X10, which I also used. As the X6, this new Version of the V1 is a very easy to use racquet, but with a very high potential. Does not get pushed around even against heavy hitters.

Comments: It's a more stable Classic V1, even easier on the arm, with a more lively, less muted string bed. Don't shy away from the light weight or light swing weight; the stick has lots of power and hits with an amazing amount of spin, especially if you grip it loosely. I think it's the best V1 since the Classic, which was made for the traditional player. This V1 plays great for the modern player.
