In shortPlayers like the control, sweet spot and firm, dry feel of the StarVie Drax+ 2026, with good play in defence and at the net. The thin handle was a drawback for a couple of them.

Has played it for 15–20 hours and loves its feel, hardness, rebound and control. The six-sided, rounder handle is the problem: the racket slips in their continental grip on hard shots, even with grip aids, so they decided to give up on it despite liking how it plays.
“I've been playing with my Starvie Drax+ for around 15–20 hours now, and I absolutely love the feel, hardness, rebound, and control of the racket.”
Tested the Drax+ and liked it a lot: quite hard with a firm feel, but lacking ball output, so deep lobs and smashes need a lot of extra effort.
“Hoy he probado la StarVie Drax+ y me ha gustado mucho. Me ha parecido bastante dura y con un tacto firme. Lo único que me ha faltado es un poco más de salida de bola”
