With a slightly firmer flex (thanks to the Aerodynamic shaped shaft and throat), the AeroPro Control offers a crisper response and just a tad more pop compared to the Pure Control. Features excellent control and a little extra ball speed off the stringbed. Aggressive players will love the precision and spin from all areas of the court with this racquet. At net the AeroPro Control feels maneuverable and offers plenty of feedback for touch and placement volleys. As with groundstrokes, this racquet easily generates both slice and topspin on serves. The true strength of this racquet is in spin and control – making it a solid choice for the player who likes to hit a heavy kick serve. If you liked the Pure Control, but would like a little more pop or are seeking a player's racquet with a nice blend of power and control, the AeroPro Control is for you.

But if you have played some competitive tennis like I have, you will appreciate the subtle power differences. The touch and spin in this frame is more due to the string tension. Do yourself a favor. Watch a lot of pros play; not just your favorite players, but everyone. Try to find the swing style that matches yours and then check out what racquet they use. If you have a swing like Roddick, then a frame like this is for you, too. – Mike Wallace for whatsalltheracquetabout.com
