By blending a solid 3U physical weight with an internal vibration-dampening system and a slightly head-heavy balance point, it delivers heavy baseline smashes while offering the rigidity required for precise net play.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"2\"\u003eBecause this variant comes \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"2\" data-index-in-node=\"27\"\u003ePre-Strung\u003c\/b\u003e (factory-strung with high-performance Apacs string, typically at a highly playable \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"2\" data-index-in-node=\"121\"\u003e26 lbs\u003c\/b\u003e), it arrives ready to take straight to the court.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"2\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePerformance Profile\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli data-path-to-node=\"5,0,0\"\u003e\n\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"5,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eEVA Foam Construction (Solid Impact Feel):\u003c\/b\u003e The internal core of the racket head is injected with an advanced EVA foam compound. This shock-absorption layer dampens high-frequency vibrations on impact, drastically reducing arm strain and giving your shots an incredibly solid, clean, and satisfying feel.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-path-to-node=\"5,1,0\"\u003e\n\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"5,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eAero-Box Hybrid Frame Geometry:\u003c\/b\u003e The racket head combines two distinct cross-sections.
