Racket Review: Pacific BXT Nexus


 

Originally published on 20/06/17 00:00

The Pacific BXT Nexus was included in tennishead's 2017 racket reviews for players in the improver category and it helps with control. 

At 225g the Pacific BXT Nexus is the lightest frame in the pack – as well as the longest at 27.75 inches. The oversized hitting area of 118 square inches allows extra forgiveness for off-centre shots for those looking for a little extra help.

Ali described it as ‘meaning business’ and ‘a weapon’ based on its oversized frame. She felt happy with the power levels generated but with more practice she’d be able to control her shots to a satisfactory level.

This solid racket that has a good balance of power and control would suit a player looking for a bit more pace on their shots. In addition, the specific ultra-light design would be ideal for an improver player who wants to avoid or already suffers from tennis elbow or arm issues given the light weight frame. 

Tennishead's 2017 improver racket reviews appear in the June edition of the tennishead digital magazine.  Download the tennishead magazine app for free to read the reviews in full.
