I love the racket a lot it’s a great racket for my game I feel like I hit the ball more clean and more consistent. It is also a really comfortable racket on the hands and I feel like I can really rip my forehand and backhand really well. All great for serving and volleyes

Another great racquet by Diadem

I have bought several of the Diadem racquets.
This Elevate V-3 is the best one for my game.
The minute that I picked it up it just felt right.
Strung it with the new Dark Matter 17 ga. String and it feels perfect.
Great feel, very maneuverable, great control.
Definitely going to be buying a second one.

Very nice racquet

Very nice racquet. Very easy to generate topspin and is comfortable on the arm. Power is also decent. The lighter weight helps to increase the swing speed and overall ball quality. The racquet has a nice soft feel if hit properly.

Elevate with Solstice Power strings

As a Wilson Pro Staff autograph user for 15 years, I was looking for a similar racquet that was more comfortable now that I’m a little older. After demoing many racquets from the larger brand names, I wanted to try a racquet from an up and coming brand. I selected the Elevate with Solstice Power strings. I really enjoyed the exceptional control, precision and surprising power. Even my opponents commented on the heaviness of my shots. As a result, I bought the Elevate and highly recommend it!

Best racquet I have used

Was using the Head Gravity Pro. The diadem elevate offers me so much more control to my game and I don’t lose any of the power. Diadem is my favorite company now all they’re products are extremely high quality!

Looks cool, great feel and yummy slices

Amazing racquet - greatgood arm comfort. Strung with a hybrid of Solstice Black and Evolution and this racquet string combination holds tension very well. Amazing for slices and powering through for winners! Feels similar in weight and balance to Blade 98 and VCore 98 in headlighted-ness and weight. Great player's racquet! Looks cool too!

Amazing feel!

Great racquet with lots of feel! The 16x20 pattern offers an excellent compromise between control and spin. Strung up with Solstice Power (teal) 17 ga @ 52lbs, getting great shape on the ball. Swapped out the stock grip for a leather one to get a little more HL balance.

Solid Racquet

I recently purchased the Elevate V3, and here are my thoughts.

* Definitely a control-oriented racquet and you must produce your own power. I have a fast swing, so I like the control aspects of the racquet.
* IMO, it's not as muted as other people have mentioned. I have played with Blades for years, and the v6 Blade is much more muted.
* The top of the frame has zero power so you better keep the ball in the sweet spot or on the lower portion of the stringbed.
* I agree with other reviews that this racquet has a low launch angle. I'm currently leaving balls short in the court, which is allowing my opponents to tee off. I'll adjust to this change.
* Serve. It's a work in progress, and I'll adjust over time.
* Grip shape is very much like old Head racquets. More oblong than rounded. At first, I didn't like it, but I really like the grip shape now.
All in all, a very good racquet. I will continue to play with and might use my Blades as a backup.

Male Player. Semi-western forehand and a two-handed backhand. 4.5 all-court player.

Excellent racquets for my middle and high school

I have 3 boys playing tennis and I recently tested the Elevate V3 and V3 Tour. Now we all 4 are using Elevate racquets, and so far, we loves it. For my age (57) the Tour (315 grams) still giving me the control that I want but with less weight racquet that I used to use. Middle School boy is using the V3 (305 grams) and he loves it. As from the high schooler ones, the V3 tour are the ones.

I am absolutely thrilled with my new racket! Its weight and strength are just right for me, and I find it to be more precise than my Wilson Clash. While the Wilson Clash is a great racket, I feel that the Diadem racket is a better fit for my playing style and preferences.

Got a pair of the

Got a pair of the Diadem Elevate V3 over the Labor Day Weekend sales extravaganza. As can be imagined, lots of orders than usual, so it took nearly two weeks to arrive. I'm general, it's worth the wait....

:tennis::+1::tennis: Overall: it's well made, not ones you get from Big 5 Sporting Goods or Costco where they sell lots of stuff, but nothing really good! Aesthetically beautiful performance grade racquets, in the same categories as Wilson Blade 98 line, or Babolat PureAero lines, or Head Speed Pro, etc so you know you're on par with these more well known tennis gear brands.
:+1::tennis::+1: Groundstrokes: I chose this one because of its control & maneuverability, I'd rather have this than power which I can generate via proper techniques, timing & footwork.
:tennis::+1::bulb: Service: I'm not sure it was the racquet or strings, as a 4.5 player who plays competitively, I find it difficult to have the necessary feel with this new gear. I'm hoping, like putting on new tooth braces, I'd get used to it over time and serve the way I was able to with my outdated & beatup Wilson STEAM 99s, which was like an extension of my arm. Hopefully, I'd feel the same about my pair of Diadem Elevate V3 to elevate my games.
:bulb::+1::tennis:Made in :u1F1FA::u1F1F8:: it's about time that another American tennis manufacturer comes on the scene, if they can only sign someone likeable & marketable like the recent US Open champ Coco Gauf to endorse their tennis gears, I think Diadem can be as popular as those other bigger tennis names Wilson, Head & Babolat.:+1::u1F1FA::u1F1F8:
:tennis::+1::bulb: Support: They took the time to write me to ensure that I selected the preferred strings & tension to suit my games: instead of just slap on something, very thoughtful :+1::tennis::u1F1FA::u1F1F8:

Best of both worlds

our daughter played with Prostaff and Yonex E Zone 98 so we were reluctant to try. From the very first hit session, depth was effortless, she could let the racquet release to generate enormous spin with control to hit a heavier ball. Control is not compromised at all, the close pattern stringing is very control supportive. I am in awe of how well this racquet is build. Checks the control, power, spin and feel boxes, impressively very equally. She will be using Elevate for long time.
