This racquet is prestrung.

Comfortable reliability

The Liquid Metal Radical has been a blessing to my game. Very maneuverable with a nice balance of control and power. I'm about a 4.0-4.5 player and have tried multiple big brand named rackets in the past but none have compared to the Radical as far as overall performance. My serve has improved dramatically although I had to push it up to a 60 lb. tension instead of my usual 55 lb. This may not be for the less experienced player. However if you've got confidence in your groundstrokes this racket offers a strong alternative to the over-saturated market. Andre Agassi uses this racket and he's done fairly well for himself. Not to say you'll play like Agassi but it's a racket worth trying out for yourself. I found this racket for $150 at a local store so shop around.

A lightweight, maneverable racquet for advanced players

I've been playing tennis for about 10 years now and have switched had about 5 different tennis racquets during my lifetime. The Liquidmetal Radical is easily one of the best racquets I've ever had. Its lightweight, maneuverable, and very responsive. In particular, its stiff enough to absorb excessive vibrations, yet still provides the control for players with long swings. If your a 4.0 or above rated player with a long, powerful swing then this racquet is for you. If your a beginner to tennis, I wouldn't recommend this.

Excellent product...

I highly recommend it to those who need more power and stability. Although, don't expect this racquet to be the lightest one!!!

An Advanced-Beginner's Take on the LM Radical OS

Before I get into this, I'll warn everybody that I'm a bit of an odd case study, and everybody should demo racquets before buying them.

I'd call myself an advanced beginner. I can hit forehand with some accuracy, I can place backhands in play, return serves with consistency, flat serve, and a half-decent net game. I played a lot when I was a kid, but gave tennis up when I was 12 and have only started back up now, at 26.

I wanted a good all court racquet that had a little heft to it. I couldn't find any of the heavy graphite sticks I used as a kid, so this was as close to what I wanted that was also in my price range. Oh, and not a fossil.

The Radical OS could definitely be tough for some beginners, but I don't think it's impossible to get used to. While it is an OS, which gives you more real estate to hit with, the power on this racquet is shocking. People who don't yet know how to apply topspin will experience a lot of difficulty keeping their shots in the court. However, once you get that down, this racquet REALLY shines. It's pretty accurate for an OS, too, but not as quick at the net as some more advanced players might like.

I haven't quite been able to test the topspin on my serves, as I'm not quite there yet, but I found this racquet to be very unintimidating on flat serves.

I'd say that this is a fantastic racquet for somebody who's played around with a piece of junk or a few demos, and is committed to learning the game. If you're just starting out, the power of this racquet could frustrate you to the point of giving up.
