The lightest and thinnest-shafted Stern in this group: 81 g with an ultra-slim 6.2 mm shaft and an even 285 mm balance. It is built for fast defence and quick wrists.

  • Ultra-slim 6.2 mm shaft is very fast through the air
  • Even balance and 5U weight make it nimble
  • 38 lb tension cap
  • Little head weight for smashes
  • Light frame is less stable against hard hitters
  • No UK stockist found
