TECHNOLOGIES:
CORTEX SYSTEM: Racquet handle and frame are actively linked by the C.D.S. (Cortex Dampening System) which filters and dampens vibrations interfering with feel
WOOFER: grommet system for increased ball-string contact to provide more comfort and control
AERO MODULAR TECHNOLOGY: for frame aerodyamics, this technology offers 10% more air penetration compared to a traditional frame design
GT: hybrid material, combining braided carbon fibers and tungsten filaments throughout the entire racquet to improve racquet performance based on the concentration of Tungsten fibers at various strategic parts of the frame
SMART GRIP: ergonomic handle shape providing maximum contact between the entire palm and the grip, offers less effort while hitting and less grip rotation, translating to more power and better control
XTRA SWEETSPOT: located on opposite sides of the frame, XS combines High Tech Pebax with a unique design of plastic parts that significantly enlarge sweet spot, increasing trampoline effect for greater power and longer ball contact for greater comfort
POWER SHAFT: stabilizers are strategically placed in the racquet core to reduce torsion upon ball impact
