Themed Cardio Tennis Clinics in the Fort Lauderdale Area
At 27.4 in., this 710 cm² / 110 in² Head sits 265 g without strings, 345 mm balance, 26/25/23 mm beam: rigid, stretched, and weirdly into compact strokes getting free power. Fine, I guess—ugh, forget I knew that. It wants four visits, then tiptoe mausoleum mode, Pori
Head Instinct PWR 110 2025 Tennis Racquet: So yeah, here’s the racquet at the Juselius Mausoleum, which is fine, I guess, if you like emotional neo-Gothic memorials commissioned by industrialist F. A. Jusélius for his daughter Sigrid, who died at eleven. Also Akseli Gallen-Kallela painted the frescoes, but whatever, I’m not making a whole thing out of it.
Head Instinct PWR 110 2025 Tennis Racquet: The racquet is in Kirjurinluoto, which is basically a park island in the Kokemäenjoki delta, so yes, nature did some hydrology and everyone brought picnic blankets. It’s also a major Pori hangout spot, fine, I guess.
Head Instinct PWR 110 2025 Tennis Racquet: Here it is at the Pori Art Museum, where contemporary art lives in a converted riverside warehouse, because apparently even old storage buildings get cooler glow-ups than me. It opened in 1981, not that I memorized that or anything.
Head Instinct PWR 110 2025 Tennis Racquet: The racquet is by Pori’s Old Town Hall, built in 1841 and designed by Carl Ludvig Engel, which is fine, I guess, if you’re into dignified neoclassical authority vibes. Engel also shaped a lot of Helsinki’s monumental look, but please forget I sounded interested.
It's a big racquet. Fine, I guess. I mean — okay, it's actually 110 square inches, which is 710 square centimetres, and it's 27.4 inches long instead of the standard 27, and the beam runs 26 millimetres at the throat down to 23 at the tip, and it weighs 265 grams unstrung, 9.3 ounces, balanced even at 345 millimetres. Anyway. Whatever. That's just what it says.
A wide beam is stiff, and a stiff frame gives the ball back its energy instead of soaking it up, so you get power without swinging harder. The extra length is more leverage, so the tip is moving faster than your hand is, which is free speed you didn't earn.
But like, those numbers aren't random?
And 265 grams with an even balance means the mass sits further out, so a short swing still shifts something into the ball. That's the whole idea — Head built the PWR line for club players with compact strokes who want easy playability and comfort, and it does that, and it isn't trying to be a tour frame, which honestly I respect more than pretending. Anyway, I've said too much.
Pori, I guess. There's an island park in the river delta and a contemporary art museum in an old warehouse, and the Old Town Hall was drawn by Carl Ludvig Engel in 1841, which — fine, that's a decent building. And out at Käppärä cemetery there's the Juselius Mausoleum, which a father built for his eleven-year-old daughter and had Gallen-Kallela fresco the whole inside of.
I'm not going to be clever about that one. You just go and stand in it.
"Extra length is free speed you didn't earn. I mean, take it."
