Diadem Elevate V3, 305 g Tennis Racquet / Racket review

[@experientialtennispickleball]

I've been playing with the Nova and V2 Elevate 305 for 1.5 years with numerous strings. Now, with the V3 305 for 3 months with 5 different strings. The V3 is: + super stable on serve returns + softer than the V2 + great for backhand slices + very good for both 2-handed and 1-handed backhands + played better with stiff strings + I've found the sweetspot is not as small as you state here - some may find it too mute depending on the string setup - I don't like the cosmetics - paint finish. It reminds me of the rubbery texture of the non-black part at the throat areas of the Pro Kennex Black Ace series. Liked the V2 paint finish better. * this frame has added Kraibon rubber material that makes it a soft/plush feeling racket and very stable with minor twists on misshits. The V2 is much less forgiving, but more connected to the stringbed ** the V3 is much better than the better looking, but harsh for the arm Babolat Pure Strike VS in all areas. Better overall then the Head Boom Pro and the stiff-Tecnifibre TF40 315 16*19 Mine is 303grams, so it's on spec
