The Vostra V8 285 brings the explosiveness of the modern game to the early intermediate player. It should also attract the dedicated beginner who is looking for ease of use. Like the V-Cell model it replaces, this update combines user-friendly speed with spin-friendly targeting. Although not as powerful as the 105in² Vostra V4, this racquet's accuracy on full swings makes it easy to turn up the heat. For this update, Volkl overhauls the layup with an advanced material technology called Red Cell, which combines a V-Cell carbon fiber with a flexible REVA resin, resulting in a more elastic construction for enhanced stability, pocketing and feel. This racquet also benefits from Super Grommets, which deploys a figure eight shape to optimize string movement for greater energy transfer and snapback (think spin). To help with comfort, this racquet's VTEX butt cap and REVA handle system have been meticulously engineered with dampening compounds to deliver a smoother, more arm-friendly feel at impact. Ultimately, with some welcomed improvements to the feel, this speedy and spin-friendly racquet is perfect for the improving player looking to play more aggressive tennis.
