With a weight of 360 grams (+/- 8 g) and a neutral balance, you get a racket that combines raw power with stability. The racket requires a technically skilled player who can fully exploit its potential by making clean, consistent ball contact. The extended handle adds flexibility, while the interchangeable wrist strap provides comfort and safety.

Materials

The frame is built with 360 Carbon Frame, made from 100% carbon fiber to ensure a stable and impact-resistant construction. The hitting surface is crafted from 18K Carbon, delivering a stiff and responsive feel with precision in every shot. The core consists of Power Foam, which increases stiffness even further and generates explosive ball response. Additionally, the surface features a rough Crystal Grip texture that enhances spin and control.
