TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
Weight (unstrung)
125 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 is to handle, but the trade-off is less power.
Balance (unstrung)
Neutral
BalanceThis 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
485 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:
14x18
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.
X-Top technology
No bumper (plastic protection of the racket head), 100% performance, a completely new racket head construction where the bumper has been replaced by a combination of active fibres for maximum resistance, speed and playability, more shock resistance and a PTFE treatment providing glide to protect the frame against abrasion from the floor or walls. Without a bumper, the racket becomes much smoother and penetrates the air better.
Yoke Power technology
Larger and longer 485 cm² head size to increase string elasticity.
Stability
The racket is very stable thanks to the thicker ergonomic shaft and external reinforcements to stay on course on powerful shots.
Forgiveness
The racket is forgiving thanks to its elongated 485 cm² headsize, which optimises string elasticity and promotes energy return on off-centre shots.
