🎵 String strategy for each frame

These are different rackets — they deserve different string setups.

Clash 100 Pro v3

Very flexible frame (RA 57) — arm-friendly. Pair with a crisp co-poly like Luxilon ALU Power Rough at 54–58 lbs to add control and prevent the string bed feeling too elastic.

Percept 97D

Very flexible frame (RA 62) — arm-friendly. Pair with a crisp co-poly like Luxilon ALU Power Rough at 54–58 lbs to add control and prevent the string bed feeling too elastic.

⚖️ Specs Equalizer

Can I make these specs match?

To match the swingweight of the Percept 97D (SW 329), add 2g of lead tape at the 12 o'clock position on the Clash 100 Pro v3. This raises its swingweight from 327 to approximately 330 kg·cm².
