Speed Pro 2026

advanced202618x20

The Speed Pro 2026 is the tour player's Speed — the heaviest, most control-oriented frame in the line. Endorsed by Novak Djokovic (who uses a similar pro-stock) and Jannik Sinner, it pairs the 18x20 dense string pattern with Hy-Bor aerospace-grade shaft reinforcement for a more stable, confident feel through contact. Auxetic 2.0 adds a connected response at impact. At 61 RA and 310g unstrung, this is a proper advanced player's frame that rewards technically complete games with pinpoint precision and plow-through.

Our review

A serious racket for serious players. The 18x20 pattern and Hy-Bor combination rewards advanced players with clinical precision. Not a frame to grow into — a frame to grow up to.

Editorial note

The Speed Pro 2026 is for players who can bring the engine. If you generate your own pace and want a frame that locks in your targets with precision, this is as good as the Speed line gets.
