The highest string tension in history? New HEAD Extreme, Pro player sponsorships...

[@andreiivashkevich1847]

Jonas, do you have plans to actually finish stringing this racquet? it's been 3 videos and you still working on it...

[@JulianChow94]

He's been stringing the phantom for like 2 weeks haha

[@Tennisnerd]

😂😂😂

[@Tennisnerd]

I have restrung it several times to find the right string 🎾🤓🫡

[@Stu49583]

Maybe he has no idea how to string and just pretends the whole thing 😂😂

[@Tennis040]

Maybe some awesome ideas for spin and control on a head extreme tour?? Best option i tested solinco tour bite 1.18 Main 25 kg Cross Toroline Caviar 1.16 cross 24 kg ​@@Tennisnerd

Ulrikke Eikeri(Norway) is the woman who plays with 90lb, she plays mostly doubles and mix doubles. looks like a Wilson Ultra with 4G string set up, Jonas

[@k1ytennis304]

I thought it was common knowledge already that Eikeri plays with the highest tension with 4G, she was the player who trapped a ball in her strings last year. Think somewhere on IG Ive seen her explain her tension as well.

Jonas here is a few to add to the Dunlop list: Tim van Rijthoven is another former top 200 player who uses Dunlop specifically FX 500 Tour a racquet I just reviewed on my channel Jenson Brooksby is another former top 100 player who uses Dunlop specifically CX200 Michael Mmoh is another top 200 and formerly top 100 player who uses Dunlop specifically Dunlop SX 300s Dunlop is gradually on the rise again Also I am sure there is a Prince Pro in top 200. But Prince Pros I have heard of are: Drago Madaras who was atp 191 not long ago and Thomas Fancutt who was atp 382

I'm sorry but the old tour 360+ without auxetic an tk 82 pallet and a lethergrip does an awesome job i love it ❤

[@vittorioquattroporte]

Hi Jonas i've been to Stuttgart yesterday and saw the Mpetshi vs. Musetti match. After that we also saw Struff Murray etc. But compared to Mpetshis Serve these guys serve in slow motion, its insane. Maybe it has to do with his quick technique where he almost hits on the rise (like Ruud). 2nd serve also consistently in the 195 + range and not a lot of double faults.

[@tortoleromig]

July 18th is the launch of the new Extreme! I had 6 (Extreme MP 2022 Auxetic 1.0 model) of them which unfortunately 5 of them broke in the neck after various uses with some mods (lead tape and leather grip), it was a really solid racket to hit with, very comfortable but it had that big con.

[@sagroove]

The new cosmetic looks very mid. Far from exceptional…..l

[@charlesbarile6671]

they broke in the neck? that’s surprising 😮

[@mattiastennis]

Its the best racquet I have tested and used so far. How do you know its July 18th? Hopefully the new Auxetic 2.0 model is just as good if not better

[@jasonglasson3519]

Thomas muster in the 90s maxed out at 95lbs isospeed non poly

[@mattiastennis]

Would be good to see more brands and they should just focus on signing on lower ranked Pros, semi-pros and national players.

[@shroud1390]

I use kev/ 4g at 86lbs. Never broke a racquet. Machine taps out at 86lbs but would have done 90lbs if I could.

[@ismailedoomun8006]

Do you even get spin with that

[@mattiastennis]

VERY much interested in new Head Extreme. I HOPE its NOT just a cosmetic update..

[@odb233]

I see the phantom there.My locally owned tennis shop just moved a lot closer to my house. I went in there today and they had a lot prince racquets but no phantom racquets. The owner apparently hated them and sent them all back. 🤷‍♂️

[@Nessaj87]

Hope you can get in touch with Ulrikke Eikeri and get the story behind her tension, and maybe some words about her RG Mixed final run in 2022 and semifinal run this year!

[@sebastiandomagala9233]

Coaching made legal does not spoil Alcaraz´s victories. Because the opponents is being coached as well, so it equals out.

[@mattiastennis]

No it doesnt equal out. Its stupid and unfair. It should not be allowed

[@sebastiandomagala9233]

@@mattiastennis Well, it was not allowed back then. That's when a 17 year old boy won wimbledon. So what exactly has changed since then? Have winners of majors become younger since coaching got allowed?

[@mattiastennis]

@@sebastiandomagala9233 Your points are inconclusive. Its only being allowed to pander to a weak 'society' and mostly because colleges and wta allowed in-game coaching. Chess doesnt have coaching nor should have tennis. Tennis is supposed to be about PLAYER vs PLAYER and only themselves prevailing not this stupid looking at their boxes and shouting things Who knows what stupid state the sport will be in, in 10 yrs

[@mattiastennis]

@@sebastiandomagala9233 Whats happened since 1985 is the further decline in 'society' and sports which is a tool / application of mankind so to speak. We only have to look at the lunatic madness that has transpired in swimming(against women namely), powerlifting(with endless silly organisations) and the decline in F1. Then again man has been in general decline since 1900 and especially after ww2 so who knows where it will be in the 'future'...

[@sebastiandomagala9233]

@@mattiastennis Lol, you are comparing chess to tennis? Srsly? Coaching applies to any sport that has a ball and can be called "playing". So you can argue to ban coaching in Basketball, Football or whatever. It should be TEAM vs. TEAM, right? So who's points are inconclusive now?

[@brendajohnson5525]

Congratulations to Carlos Alcaraz for his 3rd grand slam at age 21, a truly amazing achievement. The haters are out in full force whenever he has a victory. Take time to improve yourself rather than trash this superb young talent. He won RG overcoming an injury and a very tough draw. You folks even hate the fact that he receives legal coaching which all ATP players do. Utterly ridiculous! The fact that you can only hear JCF and no one else amazes me because I've heard other coaches, even Sinner's.

[@alcidesrodrigues755]

Congrats for one more video .. I am from Brazil and I really enjoy all of them. I would like to do a question: .. Do you know something to Ezone line that coming up soon ?

[@anielloliguori6312]

The point about Alcaraz's coach making a difference is a point i made on another KZbin channel! My point was this when Sinner was 6-2 and 2-0 up you could see he was getting frustrated angry etc. You could hear his camp constantly talking to him! Indeed far more than sinners camp who were just saying come on lets go! Carlos camp were constantly chatting to him every time he was on that side! I actually think if he couldn't get advicwe he would have been in more trouble than Sinner because he was getting all screwed up think Sinner is calmer and more likely to think out any problems by himself whereas Alcaraz needs to be seriously told to calm down and advised on shot selection! so the new coach rules have benefited him more due to his personality!

[@mattiastennis]

Finally someone with a 3-digit IQ who gets this. They are benefiting and its taking away from the Sport. Ban match coaching

[@lucletruc1972]

Has anybody heard some rumors about a new radical in december this year? And someone heard when will the new lavercup racquet cosmetics be published?

[@aeron1758]

Do we know what racket alcaraz uses?

[@Michał-q4u]

Pure Aero 98 stock (+ minor adjustments), but yeah the racket is pretty much "mainstream", you can go to a shop a get one just like that and you'll know that's the one Alcaraz uses to 95% accuracy.

[@rbarreira2]

What kind of rackets can sustainably withstand 90 lbs tension? Perhaps more than we think, as presumably there's a safety margin between the recommended tensions and the actual maximum they can handle. I wouldn't risk it though.

[@mattiastennis]

Re- Roland Garros: Its plainly stupid and unfair and anti-tennis for coaching to be allowed. The players always turning to their boxes is going to get worse. Keep coaching to BEFORE the match and let the players PLAY THE MATCH. Umpires seem to be either incapable, incompetent or partially blind some of the time It seems like the court condition was not so great all the time. May have contributed to injuries namely for Novak. Scheduling was screwed up but the weather did not help. I assumed France was signed up to Weather Modification like the 45+ other 'countries' that use it aka 'chemtrail$" ? And 30 Euros to string ?!? Thats insane. Total ripoff

[@Bambotb]

That prince phantom is criminal looking oufff when is 97 coming out

[@jfdreamer]

Hey Jonas, any chance you makinga a classic racket review for the Head Intelligence i.Radical MP? cheers from argentina!

[@Stu49583]

He said "the average tension is 20-22kg". Is that for the ATP pros? Seems lower than I expected.

[@MithTang]

think the new look of extreme is a hit, at least much better than the last generation (which actually features a neon color but looks mushy and weak with the gray)

[@guidodelgiudice5]

Crazy those Scandinavian ehm😂?😅

[@mattiastennis]

Scandinavia is a location. There is no 'Scandinavian'. There is Nordic and their not crazy

[@derekpappas1556]

If a brand is dedicated to the consumer and society of tennis vs the stores and pro players , then they will sell their product . The rest sll to stores because they do not want to to be responsible to the consumer .

[@michaelp9061]

90lb! Please message her to ask for her experience. Incredible tension.

[@rista0rile0ricky]

You didn’t try d new Head extreme pssssssss😀

[@mattiastennis]

Anyone playing with above 60 pounds needs to re-think what they are doing. There is nil benefits to doing it above 60s

[@mattiastennis]

Alcaraz is a great player but got a bit lucky that he had to face a nervous up and down opponent in Zverev. Zverev should have won it and that call in 5th set defines how bad these umpires are. However Zverev seems to just be incapable of winning slams. I think if Alcaraz faced a more in-form Sinner or Novak he would have lost. Out of the 3 slams he has won this is not his finest

[@ez2733]

Alcaraz had the best run at Rolland Garros. Period. There are no IFs. 🤐

[@mattiastennis]

@@ez2733 There are some IFs in life. Read up on Quantum Dice..

[@guidodelgiudice5]

Incredible to think that prince became such a weak brand. From winning major to nothing. Last one was probably swiatek. Don't know about doubles
