The legend lives on! With its dense 18x20 string pattern and thin 21mm beam, this version of the Prestige Midplus retains that familiar blend of control and feel that has attracted generations of experienced players. Updated with Graphene XT (the second iteration of Head's polarized weight system), this stick comes with additional mass at the grip & tip. The extra tip weight is supposed to deliver greater pop, but this racket's essence is all about control. From the baseline, the maneuverable feel gives this version of the Prestige easy acceleration (if not the stability of Prestiges from decades past). The firm and low powered response will keep the biggest, most powerful strokes inside the lines. Players looking to add some pop and comfort should definitely use the low end of the tension range and/or install a powerful string. Although this is no spin demon, topspin players should find it fast enough to whip up sufficient ball rotation. At net, clean contact is required, and it delivers a surgical response. There's also enough speed to seize & pounce when opportunity knocks. Finally, this racket's low powered precision should allow aggressive servers to work every nook & cranny of the box. Experienced players looking for maximum control and great feel should give the Graphene XT Prestige Midplus a serious look. For the Prestige purist or anyone who needs extra stability, we recommend a little weight at 3 & 9 or higher (with counterbalancing in the handle). This should give it the rock solid feel of past generations.
