Prince O3 Tour 100 Heritage Tennis Racket - 290g
Celebrate 50 years of the American brand Prince with this clean and elegant special edition of the Prince O3 Tour 100! With the O3 Tour 100 (290), Prince delivers easy targeting and "best of class" comfort to the Tour franchise.
Like the standard (solid beam) version, this racket's 290 gram weight makes it ideal for intermediate level players. It should also work for the more experienced player who wants a light option with easy acceleration. Compared to the standard Tour 100 (290), this racket has a slightly thinner beam along with an extra cross string, but the defining feature is O3 Technology, which enables the strings to soak up more vibration at impact, resulting in a uniquely muted and comfortable response.
This racket also benefits from Textreme X, which adds Twaron to the original Textreme formula in order to further enhance dampening and optimize the response. On groundstrokes the O3 Tour 100 (290) feels softer and more muted than rackets from competing brands. It is fast enough for whipping up power and spin, but it also has enough mass in the head to feel solid when your opponent's pace goes up. The open 16x19 string pattern supplies enough bite to bring the ball down sharply. At net and on service returns, the O3 Tour 100 (290) not only moves into position with decent speed, but it has enough stability for blocking the ball back effectively. Finally, aggressive servers will find enough control and spin to swing for power.
All in all, the O3 Tour 100 (290) is great option for the intermediate player who wants a soft and forgiving racket with impressive spin and controllable power

Trying out a racket before you buy can be a great way of making sure you get the correct racket for you. We have invested in creating a huge range of demo rackets for our customers to try. There are two different ways of testing rackets with us. Please read carefully before borrowing a racket. Our demo rackets are kept in the best condition possible and restrung whenever needed. However we cannot restring demo rackets specifically for each customer.
1) Pick up a racket in store: A deposit of £5 per racket will be charged each time you demo a racket. This is non refundable but will be taken off any future purchase of those frames (not transferrable to other items). Only one £5 fee can be taken off each purchase. Customers are allowed to borrow up to THREE rackets each time, subject to availability for up to 1 week. You will be expected to return rackets to the shop promptly otherwise future testing may be refused.
2) Demo by post: To borrow a racket test when you can't make it to our store, find the racket you like on our site, select the demo option (not available on every racket) and place your order, paying the £49.99 deposit. Only ONE racket may be sent at a time by post. We will send out your ordered demo racket as soon as one is available (there may be a waiting list). Customers will be expected to return the demo racket after up to 1 week of light playtesting. Return the racket in the box they came in by your choice of courier. We suggest Parcelforce, DHL or UPS. Please note this will be at your own expense.
After the racket is received back at the shop we will send you a discount code to get £30.00 off your chosen racket. If you choose not to buy that racket we will refund £30.00 of your deposit.
We reserve the right to reduce the amount of discount/refund at our managers discretion should any demo rackets come back damaged more than we feel is reasonable for playtesting. If rackets are not returned for any reason including being lost in transit then deposits will not be refunded. You will not be charged for any string breakages whilst testing a racket.
