Tecnifibre updates the TFight 305 with a slightly bigger head size and a cosmetic accented with the colors of the French Flag. Boasting a 630cm² hitting surface, the TFight 305 DCS3 ATP feels a tad livelier than its 613cm² predecessor. The extra pop is easy to control thanks to the 18x19 string pattern - a feature that should give big hitters a little more confidence when driving the ball powerfully through the court. This model also comes with Dynacore, a uniquely flexible material designed to boost stability and comfort. With impressive attention to detail, Tecnifibre adds its Armor Cap bumper system to protect the frame’s head along with EZ Lock Eyelets to increase grommet longevity and improve knot tying during string installation. From the baseline our playtesters reported a firm feel, with plenty of feedback on off-center hits. Give the dense pattern and firmer feel, we found this racket to play best with a softer co-poly or multifilament. We also found the 305 to be very fast and whippy for its weight, making it a solid option for topspin players in search of explosive acceleration or any player who wants user-friendly positioning. At net this racket is never late to the ball. The speedy feel makes it perfect for reaction volleys or pouncing quickly when opportunity knocks. Although this stick should work well for most intermediates, advanced players looking for more torsional stability will likely need to add some weight to 3 & 9 o’clock. Intermediate players looking for maneuverability and controllable power should give this racquet a test drive.

Other technologies include Tecnifibre’s Horse Back Strip, which feature ridges built into the grommet channels to increase power, comfort and string longevity.
