Staff pro review:
The Speed MP L 2026 feels quick and comfortable, encouraging confident swings without overloading the arm. It’s forgiving on off-centre hits and provides easy depth, which helps maintain rally quality under pressure. While not as stable as the heavier Speed models, it remains controlled for its weight class. A great choice for improving intermediates who want performance benefits without committing to a full-weight player’s racket.
