An upper-beginner singles and lower-intermediate doubles player who owns the Thruster F Claw Ultra finds it not demanding: stiff but whippy, with a forgiving sweet spot thanks to the larger head. Power comes easily from the head weight, though it gets a little tiring and they feel they only get about 80% of their power on clean hits.
“It's stiff, but whippy like the Auraspeed 99 (thanks WES 3.0). It's maybe not as repulsive due to the head being on the larger side, but it in turn has a more forgiving sweet spot.”
