The Harrow Vapor 115 is an elite, high-performance squash racquet that serves as the modern incarnation of the most successful, best-selling frame in Harrow’s history. When Harrow updated their line, they added true frame-weight designations to their names—the Vapor 115 directly replaces the legendary standard historical Harrow Vapor, preserving the identical, iconic performance DNA that made it a fixture on the PSA World Tour.
Core Performance
- The Ultimate All-Court Balance: Unlike ultra-light racquets that can feel hollow or lack punch, the Vapor 115 utilizes a slightly head-heavy swing weight. This pulls the frame smoothly through your swing path, creating effortless depth and plow-through without requiring massive physical effort.
- Crisp, Signature Rigidity: True to Harrow's strict manufacturing standards, the frame features a highly rigid composition. This minimizes horizontal frame distortion on impact, providing a beautifully uniform, low-vibration, and predictable ball rebound.
- Surgical Front-Court Precision: The open-throat quadraform head shape concentrates a dense sweet spot. This allows attacking players to take the ball early on the volley and confidently slide delicate drops and dying boasts into the nick.
Key Technologies
- Premium Carbon/Graphite Layup: Built using elite-grade carbon fiber layers to achieve a finished weight of 140 grams (inclusive of factory strings, bumper, and grip), guaranteeing maximum structural density and tournament-grade durability.
- Dense 14 x 18 / 14 x 19 String Grid: Designed to bite and grip the squash ball tightly, allowing technical players to put heavy slice, cut, and spin on the ball to kill rallies instantly.
- Pro-Tier Factory Setup: Bypassing generic, low-quality factory strings, the Vapor 115 comes pre-strung at a crisp, professional 28 lbs of tension with Harrow’s premium Barrage Pro string, providing incredible elasticity and tournament-ready performance right out of the box.
Ideal Player Profile
- The Harrow Vapor 115 is a versatile masterpiece built for advanced and competitive all-court players. Whether you are an attritional grinder who wins through immaculate, heavy lengths, or an aggressive front-court sniper who hunts for quick volleys and deceptive drops from the "T," this frame delivers the precise blend of stability, speed, and power needed to dominate at the highest levels of the game.
Summary
The Harrow Vapor 115 is widely considered an all-time classic, offering a flawless, masterfully engineered blend of power and control. By pairing a lightweight 115-gram unstrung frame with a slightly head-heavy balance point (380 mm), Harrow ensures that the racquet moves with exceptional speed through the air while maintaining enough head momentum to crush deep lengths. It features a traditional open-throat geometry, making it the weapon of choice for top international pros and competitive club players alike.
