Every racket review tells you what to buy.
We tell you why not.
The Player DNA test reads your game across six dimensions, then hands you an honest list — the rackets built for you, and the ones that would cost you your elbow or your season.
Completely free. Independent — affiliate links never touch the scores.
Your Player DNA
Sample profile“Head-heavy, hard core. With your elbow history, every off-center ball is a tax you pay in tendon.”
Three steps between you and the right racket.

Community reviews open when you write one — each stamped with the writer's DNA, so you know whose advice fits your game.
The NOT list
Real output for a sample profile: ex-tennis, 3 h/week, elbow history.
Metalbone 3.4
Head-heavy with a hard core. With your elbow history, every off-center ball is a tax you pay in tendon.
AT10 Genius 18K
Tapia's racket, not yours. It demands a technique ceiling you are two seasons away from.
Vertex 04
A 3 h/week schedule never wakes this frame up — you'd carry its weight and get none of its power.

How we score
No stars. No “8/10 for everyone.” A distance, measured.
Every racket carries an expert-measured profile on the same six dimensions as you. Your match score is the weighted distance between the two — comfort weighs 1.6× if you flag an active injury, budget is a hard filter, and self-ratings get discounted if your answers contradict each other. The same math produces the “why” and the “why not.”

Write yours to read theirs — 80+ characters of honesty is the ticket in.
