The BEST 100s for CONTROL? Head Gravity Pro 2023 vs. Head Speed Pro 2022 | Rackets & Runners

[@hybrid11theory75]

Amazing, very detailed review. Agree with almost all parts. Gravity works best for flat hitting all courter, while the Speed Pro is more whippy and tad more spin-friendly. I think the Spin on the gravity is underrated, u have a larger spin window due to the head shape. Personally Gravity Pro is my racquet of choice, bc it's simply the most complete stick you can buy right now. It's a miracle racquet in stock form that does everything exceptional... as long as you have developed strokes/technique.

[@RacketsRunnersVancouver]

Thank you! I totally agree that the spin is underrated on the Gravity Pro. Especially when I compared it to the Prestige a few weeks back it really was night and day even though the two frames are kind of similar on paper. I've always said the Gravity Pro is magical; I struggled with the last one because it was a tad too high in SW, but this one is just phenomenal now that they lowered it a bit.

[@hybrid11theory75]

@@RacketsRunnersVancouver Quality Control is a huge problem, bc it can throw you off in first place. If you have an already demanding frame way over spec, u prob. won't like it. I never buy racquets unmeasured, always use matching services for a little extra cost. That way u can also cheat yourself to a more "personal" racquet. If you love the gravity pro but it's too heavy, u can find one that is way under spec and this may be a perfect match...

[@RacketsRunnersVancouver]

That's part of the reason why I couldn't switch to the 360+. I do think quality control has gotten miles better on average in the last 5 years; probably because of the rise in reviews putting a bigger spotlight on the issue.

I've been wanting to do these two for a while now but it looks like we're phasing out the VCORE Pro 100, so I'll probably wait till the new one comes out.

[@quiquedclHD]

I was just wondering how the Speed Pro would compare against the Gravity Tour (BOTH GRAPHENE 360+ VERSIONS). They are almost identical in specs except for the beam is 1mm thinner on the Gravity Tour and the weight is a little lower, as is the swingweight. The power map shows them both to be about the same. They both have a nice low 60s RA rating and they both have a 18x20 string pattern. What differences should I expect from these frames ??

[@RacketsRunnersVancouver]

This is a very good question, and something I consider myself a bit of an expert in. The spark notes: the speed pro has more spin and power but less control, consistency, and user friendliness.

[@ЮлианнаСмирнова-м7е]

Finally confused what to choose(

[@johncharles2357]

Is the Gravity Pro sweetspot higher up than the Speed Pro?

[@tylernielson7149]

This guy gives the best in-depth reviews! Love the terminology as well. I just demoed the Gravity Pro, and am a huge fan of the feel.. stable, control oriented, and surprising spin. You can really swing out with it, therefore heightening that ceiling in seeking further potential in your skills. A lot of fun to hit with. Thanks for the awesome review.

[@RacketsRunnersVancouver]

Thank you very much! Glad you liked the Gravity!

[@Anton.Arkhipov]

Interesting, I actually found Auxetic Speed Pro to have significantly lower launch angle than GPro. GPro responses much better to lifting and shaping the ball. That said, notice my Speed is buffed to GPro SW, and both tail-weighted to be 32cm of balance, 340g static fully furnished

[@RacketsRunnersVancouver]

Interesting what you say about lifting/shaping the ball. I wonder if this has something to do with the fact the pocketing is much more well defined so you feel more control over that lifting motion while it sits in the stringbed. I have to say I think purely from a technical point of view, the Speed is more spin friendly.

[@Anton.Arkhipov]

@@RacketsRunnersVancouver I actually measured their stringbeds, and they are almost identical in terms of density in the middle. Like 0.5mm difference if you take 8-10 middle mains and crosses. GPro has that “middle” closer to the tip, and is obviously a tad wider. Those longer crosses in the middle bring better liveliness (and spin window is wider) for Gravity. I actually did compare them side-by-side. Speed does spin the ball well enough, but by whatever reason doesn’t want to lift it unless I open the stringbed. But this hurts the spin instantly, and I just have to hit low over the net, or balls start sailing, or I need to artificially over spin them. With gravity, the shape is just more natural and easy for me, more net clearance and curve on “default” drives. I have some guys agreeing with me with this assessment. And overall Gravity seems just great for me. Yesterday hit some kicks which bounced hugely 🔥

[@ramukalidindi8449]

Which is a better racquet between speed pro , speed MP , gravity pro , gravity MP and Wilson blade 98 18/20 ? Also which string setup would you suggest along with tension in pounds with respect to each racquet As I don’t have the luxury to test them out would be of great help if I could get help . Thank you

[@RacketsRunnersVancouver]

Better is always a relative term; my favourite is the Gravity Pro. Any poly will work in the rackets, for the Speed Pro, go for 50#, MP, 53#, Gravity Pro 48#, MP 50#, and for the Blade go for 47#.

Hi! Could you compare tecnifibre 305 ISO and Gravity Pro please?

[@RacketsRunnersVancouver]

I've included both in our Top 5 Control rackets video, if you want to check that out!

[@enzocouture3614]

Great review! How would you compare the Gravity Pro with the Pro Staff 97 v14?

[@RacketsRunnersVancouver]

Two very different rackets looking to accomplish a similar goal. More consistency/power with the Gravity, more manoeuvrability/spin with the Pro Staff.

[@LarzB]

I don't understand why you refer to the speed pro as having a bigger sweet spot than the gravity pro. According to my experience the gravity has a bigger sweet spot although it isn't much bigger. The speed pro feels more muted overall, but that is not a sweet spot. But that's my experience.

[@RacketsRunnersVancouver]

Interesting, I can't say I agree but maybe it's because there's one clear area in the Gravity's sweet spot that feels much sweeter than the rest, whereas the Speed doesn't have that same super sweet zone to me.

[@LarzB]

@@RacketsRunnersVancouver head even marketed the gravity as the stock with the biggest sweet spot. They called it massive sweet spot in their introduction and generally the sweet spot size is mostly defined by the width of the head at the contact area in combination with twist stability and a little bit the string pattern/ density. Maybe lack of quality control resulted in a lower twist weight which negatively impacts the twist stability which gives a feeling of a smaller sweet spot. 1 point of twist weight is a huge difference in twist stability, as i experimented. So maybe by lack of quality control your speed had a higher twist weight than average and the gravity a lower than average. In that case the twist stability of the speed feels better than the gravity and give you a feeling of a bigger sweet spot. It's hard to say what the root cause is. But based on the other attributes and head's marketing the gravity should have the bigger sweet spot on paper and according to my experience with my gravity pro and speed pro (which i had the last 3 iterations of) for me the gravity has the bigger sweet spot. The speed head feels now rigid because of the 3 additional mm in the beam, but that is not sweet spot, but rigidness of the head. The gravity head plane can deform a little bit more than the speed head plane. The rackets flex differently as you said. The speed flexes more in the neck, while the gravity flexes more linear over the whole length of the racket. Ergo, the gravity with 20mm beam will flutter faster than the speed with 23mm beam

[@RacketsRunnersVancouver]

@@LarzB Yes, I completely agree with you on the twist weight side of things the Gravity is higher than the Speed. It's just, like you said, with those 3 extra mm of thickness the Speed, and that modern shape/flex is so much less fluttery than the Gravity on off centre hits, that it just makes for a bigger feeling "sweet spot" to me although, I guess, technically that wouldn't be considered the sweet spot since it is an off centre hit. I guess what I'm trying to say is that the Speed is a more forgiving racket, IMO and the Gravity more precise and sweet.

[@LarzB]

@@RacketsRunnersVancouver totally agree on that

[@StevenHernandez-g1r]

Hello really enjoy the detail in your explanations of these two racquets and I have been able to demo both, the one id like your feedback on as I cannot find a demo is the newer Head prestige mp as it has similar specs to the gravity pro and speed pro in this review, thanks!

[@paddlepower888]

Thanks. At my level I just try to point the strings where I want the ball to go. I like my Speed but my string choice, adding poly to multi mains, made the ball fly long.

[@fred85143]

And about Comfort and arm friendly? Gravity Pro or Soeed Pro

[@SaqibSheikh]

V core pro 97 user. Thinking of switching to speed for more power and stability. What u think?

[@MikTara]

Excellent review, thanks. I didn't get perpendicular to the ground contact point and parallel to the ground contact point... can't get my mind around what you meant. Which racket would you consider more arm friendly? Thanks fir the review!

[@RacketsRunnersVancouver]

Thank you! Think parallel to the ground = modern spin-friendly stroke and perpendicular = more classic flat stroke. Both are very arm friendly but the Gravity Pro ever so slightly more so.

[@johncharles2357]

I think what he meant is the forward phase of the swing. For some players (like del Potro, Schwartzman), the strings are pointed sideways while the racket is going forward. For some players (most modern players), the strings are pointed down while the racket is going forward.

[@MikTara]

@johncharles2357 when you say "strings", you mean racket face?

[@mariusklenner2485]

Im a 3.0 -3.5 player (playing for 2,5 years, once a week just with a friend - no competitive yet). 33year old male. I like to hit big from the baseline more, than rushing through the net. I’m trying to play with spin but I’m not the best spin player of my technique. So if I try to hit winners, I often shoot em too flat and they are going too long - out. I’m actually playing the 2023 head extreme mp, because I thought „if I’m not good enough to generate spin with a good technique, maybe the extreme mp can help me with it. But now I’m thinking, maybe I need a more control friendly racket. I’m thinking of the speed or the gravity line. But I don’t know which is better for me and which model i should take (MP, Tour, Pro of gravity or speed) What do you suggest me to get?

[@RacketsRunnersVancouver]

Go for the Gravity MP. You're right about looking for something controlled it will work better with your technique.

[@mauriciodenardipeterlevitz3694]

Do you guys think that it is worth to invest money to switch from gravity pro 2019 to gravity pro auxetic 2023 ? Some youtubers say 2023 version is not as good as previous generations. Other youtubers say 2023 version is slightly better. Assuming it is slightly better; is it better enough to expend money to switch from 2019 version to an auxetic one? Thanks for any help guys

[@bigdaddy812]

IMO it depends on how you define “better”. It’s a subjective term. From my experience I can say it was a no brainer to get 23 version. Reason being that it felt more solid on contact yet maintained a super buttery feel plus it seemed easier to swing as the SW despite being 330 felt lighter. These were the reasons for me to get the 23 version so I got 2!

[@murilo3123]

WOW man, really good review!! i play with a Gravity MP 360+ and i love it... but i am always looking for new frames and i think that gravity pro can be a good one for me, because i like the frame and because of the more closed string pattern (18x20).... the only concern is about the weight, but i think in gravity pro is quite ok to deal it, right? Thanks for the review!

[@RacketsRunnersVancouver]

It's definitely a heavy racket especially if you're coming from an MP. If you have the chance to demo it, give it a go but I would be careful going in on it without trying it first.

[@EdmonBegoli]

@Luka - a serious question - if YOU are to play a tournament and with a goal of having frame help you the most, which one would you pick? Speed Pro or Gravity Pro?

[@RacketsRunnersVancouver]

That's a very good question. For me it would be the Gravity Pro and this question may be worth its own video.

[@AusTennis]

nice work. keep it up.. Suggestion: How about a comparison chart with scores?

[@RacketsRunnersVancouver]

I was thinking about this, I'll definitely consider it for these comparisons.

[@shalomleal7975]

Good morning, I have a question. Some say that stiffness determines whether one racket is more powerful than another, but others say that it is the power scale or psi that determines it. If you can clarify that for me, I would appreciate it, because it happens that the radical, for example, has 65 RA while the speed pro 2022 has 61 RA, which suggests that the radical is more powerful but when you look at the power scale, the radical has 200 and the speed pro 300 suggesting that the speedpro is more powerful. Thank you very much for answering .

[@RacketsRunnersVancouver]

Stiffness can determine power but it also stems from other things like string pattern, beam thickness, racket shape. Don't worry too much about Head's CPI but when you see a thicker frame, or a frame that has more modernly shaped lines you can expect it to be more powerful.

[@bigdaddy812]

Question: thoughts on potential impacts of touching up a raquet with paint to black out? Would the weight balance be impacted on a raquet like Boom Pro?

[@RacketsRunnersVancouver]

Yes, you will definitely impact certain things unless you are absolutely perfect with sanding and reapplying the exact same amount of weight. In this case, it's probably best to leave it to professional customizers.

[@juanantoniocanohidalgo5070]

Hello nice video, which is better in control and maniobravility , Speed Pro or Prostaff X? Many thanks

They are both fairly heavy but the Speed Pro is noticeably more maneuverable. In terms of control, I would say the Speed Pro as well but it's very close.

about spin, to me for wathever reason the gravity has lower lauch angle but produce way more rpm and heavy ball

A lot of people have been saying this. I am personally more comfortable taking a big cut of the ball with the Gravity which is why I can produce more spin, but if you're keeping all things equal, the Speed Pro has more spin potential.

[@RacketsRunnersVancouver]

I tried it very briefly and absolutely hated it, but it was my first time playing tennis in over 2 months so take that with a massive pinch of salt. What I will say is that it has a very high power potential; the only racket I can compare it to in that regard (considering all other factors) is the RF97.

[@chuckfriebe843]

I have both the Soeed Pro and the Auxetic Prestige Tour. The feel is very much the same. However, there is even more stability with the Prestige, especially on volleys. I used a 1.23 gauge string on both because the launch angle on the Prestige is surprisingly low for a 16x19. The Speed Pro is just a little more sluggish through the air. This is because its static weight is lower with a SW of almost 330. You’ll feel the heft in the hoop. The Prestige has a heavier static weight and because of this, there is more weight in the handle, making it more head light in comparison and easier to swing, in spite of its almost 340 SW.

I'd loves to see you compare the gravity vs the prince textreme tour 310 100 or the tour 305 98, love the reviews so far!

[@RacketsRunnersVancouver]

Thank you! Unfortunately we don't cary Prince anymore, but if we ever do those would be two perfect ones to compare.

[@elliottjoseph470]

@@RacketsRunnersVancouver fair enough they aren't big sellers anymore, still good racquets. Still love you reviews keep em coming!

@RacquetsRunnersVancouver (Luka) after a year now and more testing, has your opinion on these two change any? In my case, I got both. I ended up selling Gravity Pro because it was too sluggish on spin shots (kick serve, top spin forehand) and too low on the shot angle. I stuck with Speed Pro and it has been my main frame. It is, in my opinion, a players’ frame trineer - spin, power, control.

[@RacketsRunnersVancouver]

I wouldn't say my opinion has changed much, but I agree with most of what you're saying.

The Gravity seems to be an imitation of the Yonex Vcore Pro

[@RacketsRunnersVancouver]

Woah, I don't know about that! Two great rackets but very different in their own right.

​@@RacketsRunnersVancouverI was actually looking to see if there was any comments between this two racquets. How would you say they are different? Currently have a Vcore Pro HD (2019), when I bought it my other option was the Gravity. Now that I'm looking (dreaming?😅) of a replacement I was almost sure of the Speed pro but after watching this I felt the Gravity seems more similar to my Yonex, thoughts? Side note, I spend too many hours watching tennis channels in KZbin and for the first time one of your videos popped up. Just subscribed!🎉

What strings are those on the Speed Pro?

Head lynx tour.

Pro staff x??

[@RacketsRunnersVancouver]

To me, it doesn't quite stack up in consistency/control compared to these two frames.
