Where is the real sweet spot? 🎾

Research by Rod Cross found that a racquet’s most comfortable contact zone is not directly in the centre.

The vibration sweet spot sits roughly 2–4 strings above centre, while the centre of percussion, where your arm feels the least shock, sits about 5 cm below centre toward the throat.

The space between these two points is where the racquet feels best: less vibration, less shock and more control.

Find the zone. Feel the difference.
