Racquetball swingweights
Q: In regards to the swingweight numbers that are given each year in RSI magazine for the new racquetball racquets, how do you get those numbers? I know that the Babolat Racquet Diagnostic Center (RDC) can measure tennis racquets, but it is not designed to do racquetball racquets.
A: Because racquetball racquets aren’t long enough to mount properly on the Babolat RDC machine, the USRSA uses a Rossignol Swingtest to measure the swingweight of racquetball racquets.
