Good fit if
- You prefer a descending power profile—more response on serves and drives, with less pop near the kitchen.
- You use topspin, slice, or shaped shots.
- You use a two-handed backhand.

The provisional Calmer Kitchen Play badge appears when the lower of Serve and Drive Power exceeds Pop by at least 1.5 points. It identifies separation between full-swing output and compact-stroke response; it is not a laboratory control score. A true passive-block measurement will appear only after ImpactTune completes its own controlled stationary-paddle testing.
