Racket review: Pro Kennex Ki Q15 280g

Originally published on 24/05/14

With its head-light specs catering well for players looking for a manoeuvrable frame with a large strike zone and an extra half-inch in length, the Q15 will go down well with players who love to get up the court and into the net and who are looking for a greater margin for error.

In spite of the frame’s stiffness, inside you’ll hear the movement of Pro Kennex’s Kinetic Technology in action, the sand-like micro-bearings that aid both swingweight and comfort.

Power comes easily but finesse takes some dialling in, and our testers found that long, measured swings produced the most consistent results, which makes this a solid choice for a player looking to protect their arm from injury.
