The timeless White colorway provides a clean, classic aesthetic that complements any racquet frame design.
Performance Profile
- Repulsion Power (10/10): The slim 0.65 mm gauge produces maximum snapback, driving flat exchanges, clears, and smashes off the string bed with effortless speed.
- Hitting Sound (10/10): Delivers a crisp, high-pitched metallic crack on clean contact that adds rewarding acoustic feedback to offensive shots.
- Control & Touch (10/10): Exceptional string bed feedback and shuttle bite allow for pin-point accuracy on net hairpins, cross-court drops, and slices.
- Medium Hitting Feel (8/10): Offers a crisp yet cushioned response that balances stiff power transfer with comfortable shock absorption.
- Durability (6/10): Engineered purely for peak performance, shuttle velocity, and touch over longevity; requires more frequent restringing than thicker 0.68 mm–0.70 mm gauges.
