In shortPlayers describe it as very light and manoeuvrable, a favourite at the net, with a stiff feel that several find easy on the arm. The clear downside is a small sweet spot that makes off-centre hits die, and it demands good technique. A few players disagree and find it forgiving.

Uses the Ultimate Pro Light: superb build, but a small sweet spot that demands good technique; they found it so hard to master that they are selling it.
“sweet spot is small, and you really need good technique and follow through to be able to use them properly.”
A love/hate relationship with the Ultimate Pro Light: a great tool but demanding, with a narrow sweet spot.
“The sweetspot is pretty narrow and there's a big on/off effect if you don't hit perfectly”
