Dunlop FX Racquets: Improved Power

Dunlop FX Series FAQs
What makes the FX series stand out?
The FX series is built for power, with stiff frames (RA ~70–71) and open string patterns (16x19) for easy depth and spin. It’s comparable to other power-oriented racquets but offers enhanced comfort due to technologies like Sonic Core with Infinergy and Flex Touch Resin.
Who should use the FX series?
- Beginners: FX 700 (107in²) or FX 500 Lite for forgiveness and power.
- Intermediates: FX 500 or FX 500 LS for power and spin.
- Advanced Players: FX 500 Tour for controlled power.
How does the FX series perform on different shots?
- Groundstrokes: High launch angle for deep shots, but control can be challenging when flattening shots.
- Serves: Above-average spin and power for kick and slice serves.
- Volleys: Decent stability but less touch for finesse volleys.
- Returns: Stable against big serves, but spin is needed for control on aggressive returns.
Are there any downsides to the FX series?
The stiff frames may feel harsh for players with arm issues, and control is slightly reduced compared to the CX series. Stringing with softer strings (e.g., multifilament at 48–52 lbs) can improve comfort.
