Summary

The HEAD Gravity Tour SH is a standard-shaped paddle with a 14mm polypropylene honeycomb core, known for balancing power and control. The fiberglass and carbon fiber face may provide a blend of power and touch. Weighing 7.8 ounces, it falls into the lightweight category, potentially offering good maneuverability. The 4.25-inch grip may be suitable for players with smaller hands. With a low swing weight of 104, the paddle should be easy to swing quickly. The twist weight of 7, coupled with a high twist weight rating (6.7 out of 10) and percentile (87th), suggests good stability on off-center hits. This paddle might be suitable for players prioritizing control and quick exchanges. The lighter weight and standard shape could benefit beginners and intermediate players. While the lighter weight may enhance maneuverability, it might limit power for some.
