Technologies
NF²-TECH 2.0
A new version 2.0 of natural linen fibers. This new 100% unidirectional linen fabric offers greater mechanical strength in the direction of the fibers and optimal filtration of vibrations. The linen patches are located in the throat of the racquet to filter and to let only the good feelings through to the hand.
FSI POWER
Frame String Interaction Power is a technology that combines an open string pattern, diamond-shaped grommets and a Woofer system to enhance the energy return of the strings. A longer contact time between the ball and the strings gives you more power and feel when you hit the ball.
ELLIPTIC FRAME TECHNOLOGY
An elliptical frame structure optimizes stability at the throat of the racquet to maximize the energy return of the strings and to deliver more power.
HTR SYSTEM
This High Torsional Rigidity (HTR) system has been added to the frame's composition to increase impact stability and energy return.
