By dropping the weight and switching to a more forgiving core, Dunlop created a high-performance racquet that focuses heavily on defensive reflex speed, comfort, and control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePerformance Profile\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli data-path-to-node=\"4,0,0\"\u003e\n\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eManeuverability \u0026amp; Speed (Maximum):\u003c\/b\u003e Weighing around 355 grams, this is the most agile racquet in the Galactica line. Shaving 10 to 15 grams off the standard and Pro weights means you can whip the racquet through the air effortlessly, making it brilliant for lightning-fast reflex volleys and quick recoveries in the corners.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-path-to-node=\"4,1,0\"\u003e\n\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eTouch \u0026amp; Comfort (Soft \u0026amp; Elastic):\u003c\/b\u003e Unlike its heavier siblings that use firm Pro EVA, the Lite version utilizes a \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"113\"\u003eUltra Soft EVA core\u003c\/b\u003e.

Off-center hits are forgiven, meaning you won't lose complete control or hurt your arm if you misjudge a fast ball.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-path-to-node=\"4,3,0\"\u003e\n\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eAttacking Power (Moderate):\u003c\/b\u003e While it retains the premium \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4,3,0\" data-index-in-node=\"57\"\u003e12K Carbon\u003c\/b\u003e face to give you decent punch when you smash, its lightweight nature and softer core mean you won't get the same crushing, heavy plow-through power as the standard or Pro versions.
