This is odd because most improvement racquets are head heavy which makes it easier for the player to generate power. However, this model has sufficient power but not an inordinate amount. This makes it a good investment that a person won't outgrow as quickly once he or she improves. How it plays The lightness makes the Thundercloud an awesome racquet for serves and overheads. These catagories are really where this racquet shines, while it is very good but not exemplary in the others.
Power is a little less than most racquets targeted at beginners.
Groundstrokes are solid, and it is easy to generate topspin or slice due to the open string pattern. It is very manuverable at the net, so it is a worthy choice for all-court or net players. I first noticed this racquet because I thought it looked quite nice. It is mostly blue with white on the sides with nice detailed decals. Its not flashy and not dull, so the Thundercloud is a good pick if you're concerned about looking cool on the court.
