Who it is for

Lighter player who wants power without weight. Intended by Dunlop for beginner, intermediate players.

Why it works

100 in² head, 285 g unstrung, 16x19 pattern — that combination is what gives this frame its light and power character.

Watch-outs

Light frames lose stability against heavy pace; add weight later rather than starting too heavy.

Strengths

16x19 string pattern
285 g unstrung is published by Dunlop

Trade-offs
