How it plays — our read

On the numbers, the Ultra 111 v5 is built around forgiveness and power. Its control is the softest spot, so weigh that against what you prioritise. It is easy to swing and quick to maneuver, which suits developing strokes, doubles reflexes, and longer sessions. It is one of the gentler frames on the arm, a sensible pick if elbow or wrist comfort is a real concern.

String and tension recommender

Setup
Multifilament/poly hybrid
Tension
48-54 lbs / 22-24.5 kg
A slightly firmer setup can sharpen directional control. Do not chase control with high tension if comfort drops. Soft strings at low tension.
