The visible silver Power Helix spiral in the shaft is combined with Headâ€TMs proven Metallix material in the racquet head and T-joint for even more power and control. The additional Energy Body technology ensures less air resistance to further maximize speed, power and maneuverability.
Power Helix - Incorporated into the racquet shaft, PowerHelix has a unique spiral structure that provides up to 56% more flexibility than regular carbon components. While still maintaining maximum control, PowerHelixâ€TMs increased flexibility provides a tremendous power release for incredibly fast shots.
Metallix - No chain is strong enough to harness the power of Head Metallix. Made of a specially designed matrix of carbon fibers and a new crystalline metal alloy, Metallix is one of the lightest and strongest new materials available today.
The alloy's grain size is 1,000 times smaller than that of a typical metal. The decreased grain size translates into increased performance, or, as the Hall-Petch Effect states: smaller grains â€" stronger material. The result is a lighter, stronger and more powerful racquet than ever before.
Energy Body is a frame design that is slimmer from the 11 oâ€TMclock to the 1 oâ€TMclock positions on the top of the racquet. This design ensures less air resistance, for more speed, more power and better maneuverability.
Top Cap creates a flat top surface on the handle, providing excellent hold on serving, maximum grip control for double play and optimal handling for fast speed reaction.
