I’ve been playing Tennis for around a month (2x weekly) and have gotten really decent at it. I’ve been using an old Radical MP weighing 295g since the beginning. Im now thinking of switching to a different racket. I have found a really good offer for the Pure Aero 2023 for around ~110usd, however it’s the Team version weighing 285g. Is that too light? I would describe myself as athletic. 24yo 5'11 and 185lbs. Should I try 285g or stay away completely?

Is the Head Radical MP 2009 a good racket to learn Tennis? Got it from my dad but I never played Tennis before. It has a 98square inch head and weighs 295 grams. I’m quite athletic and usually can learn new sports pretty quickly. Is it too challenging or is it viable to learn the proper technique? Or should I get a new one?

I am trying to learn Tennis. I am pretty athletic and usually I learn new sports pretty quickly. To start my father gave me his old Head Radical MP from 2009 I think. However the strings are pretty dead and I have no clue which strings to put on it. Does anyone have a recommendation? Preferably something that’s not too harsh on my arm since I’m new but also something that is at least a bit demanding/challenging and not too „easy“. Something that feels rewarding but not impossible for a beginner
