ID 8813175
BENEFITS
Power
This racket's weight, 645 cm² round head, and high stiffness favour powerful shots.
Spin
The Aeromodular 3 frame and new FSI Spin provide greater spin.
Vibration dampening
The NF²-TECH and SWX Purefeel technologies provide comfort on impact.
Handling
The intermediate swingweight and 285 g weight make this an easy-to-handle racket.
TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
Weight (unstrung racket)
285 g.
Weight: The weight is measured in grams. Just like balance point and length, the weight impacts a racket's swingweight and therefore its manoeuvrability, stability and ability to transfer energy to the ball (power). The heavier the racket, the more power you'll get, but the harder it will be to handle. The lighter the racket, the easier it will be to handle, but the trade-off is less power.
Balance (unstrung racket)
32 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 (grip biased or handle heavy), the easier the racket will be to handle but you'll have less power and stability.
Head size
645 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 more control you'll get, but you'll have to sacrifice power and forgiveness.
Stiffness
71 Ra
Ra: This refers to the racket's stiffness, i.e. how much it bends under the impact of the ball. The stiffer the racket (the higher the Ra), the less it bends. The energy lost on impact is minimised and returned to the ball via the strings. Generally, a stiffer racket offers greater power.
Swingweight (unstrung racket)
SW = 280
Swingweight: This indicates how easy a racket is to handle and its ability to transfer energy to the ball (power). The higher the swingweight, the more powerful the racket, but also the harder it will be to handle. Conversely, the lower the swingweight, the easier the racket will be to handle, but the trade-off is less power. The swingweight is derived from a combination of the racket weight, balance and length.
Stringing
16 x 19
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.
Cross section
Cross section (in mm): 23/26/23
FSI Spin
The FSI Spin technology has been redesigned for even more spin. The open string pattern generates maximum spin. The WOOFER SYSTEM extends the contact time between the ball and the strings, increasing control and comfort.
The oblong grommets have been redesigned and positioned at 6 and 12 o'clock to create a catapulting stringing effect and better ball rotation for greater spin.
AEROMODULAR 3
Elliptical, aerodynamic AEROMODULAR 3 frame integrates grommets into the frame for faster movement through the air and more dramatic spin.
SWX Pure Feel
A new technology that showcases the SMAC technology, a revolutionary dampening system built into the graphite for exceptional feel and sound on every hit.
NF²-TECH
Linen inserts strategically placed in the frame provide optimal absorption of impact and better playability.
