Description

Design details

Frame weight (unstrung)
Weight: 190 g. Weight: The weight is measured in grams. Just like balance point and length, the weight impacts a racket's swing weight and therefore its manoeuvrability, stability and ability to transfer energy to the ball (power). The heavier the racket, the more power it transfers to the ball, but the harder it is to handle. The lighter the racket, the easier it will be to handle, but the trade-off is less power.
Balance
Neutral: 31.5 cm Balance: This is the racket balance point, measured in centimetres from the bottom of the shaft. The higher the number (head heavy), the more powerful and stable upon impact the racket will be. However, it will also be harder to manoeuvre. The smaller the number (head light or handle heavy), the easier the racket will be to handle but you'll have less power and stability.
Head Size
500 cm² Head size: This is the surface area of the racket head size measured in squared centimetres. It has an impact on the racket's forgiveness and power. The larger the head size, the more powerful and forgiving it is, but the downside is less control. The smaller the head size, the greater the feeling of control, but you sacrifice some power and forgiveness.
Stringing
14 x 20 String pattern: This is the number of mains (vertical strings) x the number of crosses (horizontal strings). The more strings the pattern has, the more "closed" it is; the fewer it has, the more "open" it is. A more closed string pattern offers a greater feeling of control, but less power and spin. A more open string pattern provides more power and spin, but less control.
Length
68.5 cm Length: This is the length of the racket from the bottom of the grip to the top of the head. It is measured in centimetres. The longer the racket, the more power you'll get, but the flip side is that it will be harder to handle. The shorter the racket, the easier it will be to manoeuvre, but you'll have to give up power.
Features
Monoshaft construction for flexibility and power. Large 500 cm² head and specific 14x20 string pattern. The strings are closer together at the centre for maximum precision and more spaced out at the edges for improved energy return on off-centre shots. The racket is made from aluminium to withstand shocks and better manage run-ins with the walls. pre-strung with original strings and equipped with an absorbent grip.
