How it works

  • Tell us about your game. Short, quick taps — no questionnaire homework. “Not a clue” is always a fine answer.
  • We build your RightKit spec. Head size, weight, swingweight, stiffness and string pattern worked out for you, not for a pro on TV.
  • Get your fit. Rackets scored against your spec, with plain-English reasons and the trade-offs nobody else mentions.
  • Keep it. Save your fit, log what you play with, and update it as your game changes.

What actually matters in a racket

Most racket advice is a list of specs. Here's what each one does to your tennis — and why the right answer depends on you.

  • Head size. Bigger heads (100 sq in and up) are more forgiving and give easier power. Smaller heads (95–98) give precision if you consistently find the middle.
  • Weight. Heavier frames are more stable against pace but ask more of your arm over three sets. Most adult club players sit between 285 g and 310 g unstrung.
  • Swingweight. How heavy the racket feels when you swing it. It's the number that decides whether a frame feels quick or tiring late in a match.
  • Stiffness. Stiffer frames return more power but send more shock to your arm. If your elbow grumbles, softer (lower RA) frames help.
  • String pattern. Open patterns (16×19) grab the ball for spin. Dense patterns (18×20) feel more controlled and predictable.

There isn't a best racket. There's the right one for you.

The most powerful racket isn't better if you already generate plenty of pace — it just sends more balls long. The lightest racket isn't better if you play four times a week and want to hold your ground. RightKit asks “best for whom?” first.

And sometimes the honest answer is: keep what you've got. If your current racket already suits you, we'll say so — and point you at the strings instead.

Skip the guesswork. Get your own fit.

  • A personal spec, not a generic list
  • Every match explained — including the trade-offs
  • Honest when what you've got already suits you

Common questions

How do I choose the right tennis racket?
Start with how you play rather than which racket is popular: your level, how often you play, how long and fast your swing is, whether you create your own power, and anything that gets sore. Those decide the head size, weight, swingweight and stiffness that suit you. RightKit's finder turns those answers into a personal spec and scores rackets against it.
What head size should I get?
If you're newer to the game or want easy power, 100–105 sq in is forgiving. Club players who swing freely often suit 98–100 sq in. Smaller heads (95–97) reward consistent, fast swings with precision. The finder weighs this against everything else you tell it.
Does racket weight matter?
Yes — more than most people think. Too light and the racket gets pushed around by pace; too heavy and it feels slow and tiring. Swingweight matters even more than static weight for how a racket feels in play.
Is the RightKit racket finder free?
Completely. You don't need an account to get your fit. Create one only if you want to save it, track your kit and update your profile over time.
Do you sell rackets?
No. RightKit isn't a shop and doesn't rank rackets by who pays. We score products against your profile and show you where to find them.
Can RightKit recommend strings and tension too?
Yes. Every tennis fit includes string type and a tension range, because the right strings can change a racket more than people expect.
