Equipped with Stablefeel and DirectConnect technologies, this adult-size racquet offers a firmer feel and increased stability for a stronger connection to the ball.

Weighing in at under 11 ounces, this unstrung racquet is ideal for advanced players looking for a perfect balance of power, spin, and feel.

Features:

• Parallel Drilling– Grommet construction provides a consistent, more forgiving string bed response while dramatically increasing the sweet spot.

• FORTYFIVE– Patent-protected frame layup produces more connected-to-the-ball feel while better complementing the more modern, vertical swing path. Material increases both flexibility and stability without compromise through the swing.

• Braided Graphite + Basalt– Elastic and reactive material combination improves the flex of a racket to increase ball contact with the strings for enhanced feel and greater control.

• DirectConnect– Carbon fiber handle extends to directly connect with end cap for improved feel and enhanced torsional stability.
  
• StableFeel– The new Blade technology that provides an enhanced, firmer feel that increases stability and creates a more connected-to-the-ball feel. Designed with avid players in mind, this “sharper Blade” is ideal for those seeking to improve their game.
