VOLKL V FEEL 8 300

At 300g the V Feel 8 was one of the heavier rackets in the intermediate category, but our tester Tim found it light to play with. He enjoyed the feel of a well-balanced racket and the flexibility. He saw similarities in how it played with his current racket (Wilson Hyper Hammer)

Elliot found it hard to create spin, particularly on the backhand side.

The racket packs quite a punch in terms of power.

The V Feel 8 is an interesting choice for intermediate players who like to feel their game and have a variety of strokes in their game-play.
