Pro / Player Review

The Percept 97 is a true control player’s frame, offering outstanding precision and feel on every shot. From the baseline, it excels in directional control and consistency, allowing advanced players to construct points with confidence. The flexible response gives excellent dwell time, which enhances touch shots and slice variation.

At the net, the racket provides a stable and predictable response, making it ideal for volleying and transitional play. While it does not offer easy power, players with full, fast swings will find ample reward in its accuracy and spin potential.

Compared to more powerful modern frames, the Percept 97 demands better technique and timing, but in return offers superior feel and shot-making precision. It is best suited to intermediate-to-advanced players who prioritise control and feedback over raw power.
