Diadem Project Bublik 98 Tennis Racquet
Description
Project Bublik came out of a collaboration with Alexander Bublik, and the 98 is the sharper, more demanding half of the pair. A 98 sq in head paired with a 16 x 20 string layout gives a denser string bed than the 100 version, which flattens the launch angle and makes the frame easier to aim on drives, slice and first serves.
At 302 g with a 6 pts head-light balance it lands between an all-court racquet and a full player's frame, so it is quick enough to handle at net but still has enough behind it to absorb pace. The tapered 21.5 - 23.5 - 22 mm beam thickens through the middle for stability and thins again at the tip where touch matters, while a 67 stiffness reading keeps the feedback firm and direct.
