The AURASPEED 50 has been around for five years now, and this year Victory is offering an upgraded AURASPEED 58 for this mid-range goodie, but in terms of configuration, it doesn’t seem like you’ll see any other changes other than the handle switching to Hover Core Technology. The significant advantage of a synthetic handle is vibration dampening, however the AURASPEED 50 is already a more comfortably tuned racquet and feels a bit under upgraded.
With the AURASPEED 50’s capacity being freed up for other products, the new color is likely to be a more sensible mid-range speed racket option.
Parameters: 4UG5, with bottom, total weight in use condition 95.0g, balance point 293mm, 6.8mm center bar, 210mm long, moderate stiffness, wind breaker frame, 9-3 point line slot, 76 holes line bed, warranty 27lbs, threading 25-27lbs kt66f.
I have seen AURASPEED 50A’s exterior design drawings at the drawing stage, and the face value was much higher when I got it in real life. In contrast to the original black primer on most of the lower portion of the center bar and frame, the 50A this time uses a blue and white-based paint that is more saturated and brighter. Among other things, the color blocks on the inside of the racket head and 4 and 8 o’clock racket frames can correspond to the original, and the two are using the same set of design language. The racket looks younger image may also be favored by female players, just how this racket is not photogenic ……
Light, fast and balanced, its feel in the hand is not different from what the original color brought me in the first place, except that this time I was exposed to the 4U version, which is even lighter in the hand.
A racket this light and fast would have been an inconvenience in terms of borrowing power, but the friendly tuning of the center stick still keeps the threshold of drive deformation low. The swing speed is really high and the sweet spot is very large, which gives the AURASPEED 50A a significant benefit in terms of forgiveness. In fact, by this point, it’s been confirmed that there are no recognizable differences in performance between the old and new colors, and this trial share will also focus on comparing the differences between the 4U and 3U sizes.
The 3U in the original color has a certain advantage in the middle of the court in the flat draw and fast block, and the 4U version further reduces the swingweight, which is also more conducive to continuous racket catching. However, it should be noted that the original color still has some reservations about the deformation of the middle of the shaft and the lack of fast recovery from deformation, which is a shortcoming that does not improve the consistency of the lightweight.
For most male golfers, the AURASPEED 50A is indeed a bit too light, and the feel is not solid enough, so the confidence in the ball is not so strong. The source of this lack of confidence is the lack of firmness in the center stick, and the inherent disadvantage of its own wind-breaking frame in terms of torsional resistance. The 4U version will further magnify its disadvantage in terms of downward pressure and directionality.
Of course, when it really comes down to the offense and waiting for scenarios where the 50A’s sugar can be fully realized, it’s still a pleasurable experience. Don’t think of it as a hard-hitting weapon that can be a one-two punch, but in fact it still carries out the policy of being easy to launch and fast and consistent. I’d rather recommend using it in a way that finds a way to pull the confrontation into a dominant flat draw blocking rhythm; there aren’t a lot of effective scoring tools for the 4U AURASPEED 50A in traditional offense and defense.
When extremely passive, the moderate stiffness and balance of the center stick gives it the capital to fish the ball back in awkward situations such as backhands, overheads, and chases. For the 4U version, the lighter stance and just as big of a racket face is what makes you fearless in any situation on the court.
Here are the buying recommendations.
The 3U version has a much better feel out of the ball and upper limit of downward pressure, making it more suitable for a wide range of junior and middle school players to use for big matchups, while the 4U version’s lightness and resultant lower energy consumption experience is also preferable for a female player with a little less power or any player who needs to touch the fish.
For me, the racket is still good, but the 4U is too Buddhist and I still favor the performance of the 3U version.
