Stability or Speed? The protagonists of the test.

On one hand, the GEL-Resolution X, designed for those seeking stability and safety during more intense movements. On the other, the Solution Speed FF 4, ideal for those who focus on speed and changes of direction. Two different ways of interpreting the game, to be tested directly on the pitch.

Let's get on the court: the test and the feedback from tennis players

Divided into groups on four dedicated courts, the participants completed specific exercises led by coaches, designed to recreate real-world game situations. Direct comparisons between the two models allowed them to understand not only which shoe to prefer, but more importantly, why. The day concluded with a final toast, filled with feedback, advice, and a strong desire to return to the court.
