Manoeuvrability (swing weight)
A racket's manoeuvrability depends on the player's feeling of being able to swing the racket through the air. It is characterised by an indicator called the swing weight (SW). The higher the SW, the harder the racket will be to manoeuvre. Overall, the SW for adult rackets (unstrung) varies from 200 to 300/kg/cm².
This racket has an SW of 235, making it especially easy to handle.
As a guide:
- SW<250: easy to handle
- 250<SW<270: a versatile racket
- SW>270: a powerful racket
