Palafit scores

The maker doesn't publish its balance, so scores marked "est." are estimates.

What the scores mean

Power: medium: Ball speed on full swings. Comes mostly from weight and balance.
Control: medium: How easy it is to place the ball. Lower balance and rounder shapes help.
Forgiveness: medium: How well it tolerates hits away from the centre of the face. Comes from shape, core feel and face material.
Comfort: low: How easy it feels on the arm. Softer cores, lower balance and fiberglass faces help.
Handling: medium: How quick it feels in the hands at the net. Lighter, lower-balance rackets move faster.

Each spec shows where it was published and the original wording.
