The Dunlop FX 500 LS (V26) is the versatile, "Light Spec" version of the flagship FX 500. It is engineered specifically for intermediate players or advanced juniors who want the aggressive power and spin of the FX series but prefer a more maneuverable, lighter frame to increase their swing speed.

The Blue/Black V26 model features the updated 2026 cosmetics and refined internal dampening technologies.

Performance Profile

  1. Controllable Power: The "LS" version maintains the stiff, aerodynamic beam of the standard FX 500, but the lighter weight allows you to whip the racket through the air faster, generating easy depth from the baseline.
  2. Enhanced Feel: The V26 series incorporates updated Sonic Core with Infinergy® at the top of the frame, which significantly reduces the harsh vibrations often associated with stiffer "power" rackets.
  3. Spin Friendly: With its open 16x19 string pattern and Power Grid String Tech, the racket provides excellent grip on the ball, making it easier to hit heavy topspin or sharp angles.

Key Technologies

  1. Power Boost + Groove: A precision-engineered groove in the frame that allows for greater deformation of the grommets, increasing the "dwell time" of the ball on the strings for better energy transfer.
  2. Power Boost Frame Geometry: An aerodynamic head shape combined with a wider throat provides high stability, ensuring the frame doesn't twist during heavy impact.

Who is this for?

The FX 500 LS is the "sweet spot" in the lineup for:

  1. Improving Intermediates: Players who want more "pop" on their shots without the arm fatigue of a 300g+ racket.
  2. Aggressive Baseliner Juniors: Those transitioning into adult frames who need a racket that helps them dictate points.
  3. Doubles Players: The 285g weight makes it exceptionally fast at the net for quick volleys and overheads.
