Who it is for

Very strong player who wants maximum plow-through. Intended by Yonex for competitive players.

Why it works

97 in² head, 330 g unstrung, 16x19 pattern — that combination is what gives this frame its control and demanding character.

Watch-outs

Demanding frame — it needs a fast, complete swing and the strength to repeat it late in a match. Demo before committing.
