Dunlop TRISTORM TOUR Squash Racket

The Dunlop Tristorm Tour is a high-performance, control-oriented squash racket tailored for intermediate to advanced club players who want the surgical accuracy of a traditional frame shape but need a bit more mass for a solid, stable feel.

Positioned alongside the Tristorm Elite (which is a teardrop power frame), the Tour model features a classic closed-throat design built to deliver high consistency and tactical court placement.

Core Performance Description

1. Surgical Precision & Torsional Stability: The Tristorm Tour uses a conventional, closed-throat layout with a physical bridge. This architecture provides maximum structural rigidity, ensuring the frame doesn’t twist or flutter when blocking heavy shots. It delivers an honest, highly predictable ball launch for pinning your opponent in the back corners.
2. Plow-Through and Mass: Weighing 145 grams unstrung, this frame carries a bit more physical mass than ultra-light pro rackets. This extra weight works as a stabilizer, providing great "plow-through" that lets you punch deep length using a smooth, controlled swing.
3. Nimble Head-Light Handling: To keep the 145-gram frame from feeling slow or sluggish, Dunlop gave it an extra head-light balance. By shifting the weight distribution down toward the handle, the racket remains surprisingly agile through the air, allowing you to react quickly to volleys on the T or pull off late wrist flicks.
4. The Dense 16x19 Sweet Spot: It pairs a full-sized 500 cm² head with a dense 16 X 19 string pattern. This tight string grid minimizes any unpredictable "trampoline effect," giving you the ultimate control over your angles, lengths, and delicate drop shots.

Key Technologies

1. 4D Braided Technology: Super-light composite carbon fibers are woven in four distinct directions across key areas of the frame. This dampens harsh impact vibrations and strengthens the racket's resistance to twisting, broadening the usable sweet spot.
2. ACS (Advanced Control System): Reinforced geometric design elements are integrated directly into the throat area. ACS maximizes structural stiffness at the shaft, cleaning up the feedback to your hand and ensuring clean shot stability.
3. 100% Graphite Construction: Crafted entirely from high-grade graphite layers rather than cheap aluminum alloys, offering excellent tactile feedback to help develop your touch and feel at the front wall.

Summary: The Dunlop Tristorm Tour is a rock-solid control weapon for methodic club players. If you prefer a traditional closed-throat shape and value shot precision over raw, hollow power, its head-light agility and 145g baseline stability give you the perfect tools to master the pace of the rally.
