Expert Reviews of the Starvie Aquila Space Pro
This hard, round high balance racket will help with intermediate and advanced players with consistency in their aerial game and chiquitas. Gloss finish with a very small roughness - I didn't notice it changing the spin on the ball.
Its weight and high balance cost me a lot in the smash.
Decently quick changes of direction, but I feel the higher balance in low balls here in the back of the court. It costs me some speed, but it does help me with the predictability of the speed of the ball exit, which is good for control. For example, my chiquitas work well here.
The aerial game is this racket's strong point, because the tip of the racket moves the ball perfectly. The viboras go deep without too much effort, and when I want to attack I can easily put several balls toward the fence.
The sweet spot is pretty small. With the hardness of the racket, you have a clear sensation when you miss it...and it sounds like you're hitting the ball with a table (instead of a racket).
Good support when looking for precision and placement. This Made in Spain racket has the nice handmade finishes that Starvie prides itself on.
With this racket, power is activated at an intermediate speed and up. It pushes in a solid way that is reassuring, more inert. Good for a player looking for flat smashes instead of kick smashes - its surface don't generate much spin.
For a player looking for a solid racket for control, above all, and a dry feeling. This is a very precise racket.
Solid carbon construction for a slightly high balance shovel that favors the attack.
