Overview
Designed in collaboration with touring Pros, this is the solid beam version of the Phantom 100. The Phantom Pro 100 is ideal for intermediate and advanced players. Prince builds this model with Textreme, a flexible substance used in the shaft to increase stability without adding extra weight. Although this stick is livelier and crisper than the original O-port version of the Phantom 100, it packs a wonderfully flexible feel, especially compared to the majority of modern player's racquet on the market. Thanks to CTS Technology, this racquet's beam goes from an ultra thin 16.5mm shaft (for feel) to 20.5mm at the head (for a tad more power). From the baseline, the Phantom Pro 100 is fast enough for attacking the ball, but it still manages to feel solid when trading heavy balls. The open 16x18 pattern not only delivers easy access to spin but it also launches the ball at a higher trajectory for easier depth. Big hitters who like hitting high arching shots that drop hard should love this stick. At net the Phantom Pro 100 moves into position quickly to deliver impressive stability. In addition to having enough power to stick block volleys deep, the Phantom Pro 100 has exceptional touch for crafting tight angles and malicious droppers. Players who swing this racquet fast will be rewarded with enough power and placement on serves to cause some very weak replies. Ultimately, Prince has delivered a very solid follow-up to the original Phantom. With its buttery flex and spin-friendly precision, this is a must demo for those who want easy targeting and great feel.
