Solinco WHITEOUT 305 XTD+

At 28 inches, this frame is longer than a standard racquet, which gives you increased leverage on your serve and more reach on groundstrokes. You will notice extra pop and depth, though it may take a few sessions to adjust to the slightly different swing weight and maneuverability.

Yes, the 16x19 open string pattern is specifically designed to bite into the ball, making it easier to generate significant topspin. Combined with the frame's responsiveness, it is a great tool for players who want to dictate points from the baseline.

The 305g unstrung weight places this racquet in the intermediate-to-advanced category. It offers enough mass to provide stability against heavy hitters, but it remains agile enough for players who prefer a racquet that doesn't feel sluggish during quick exchanges at the net.

While 100 square inches is often associated with power, the WHITEOUT 305 XTD+ balances that with a stable graphite construction that keeps the response predictable. It offers a generous sweet spot that helps with forgiveness on off-center hits without sacrificing the precision advanced players need.

An even balance provides a neutral feel, meaning the weight is distributed evenly between the handle and the head. This gives you a blend of stability for blocking back serves and enough maneuverability to whip the racquet head through the zone for spin.
