A step up from the 26XL: the same even-balance, flexible-shaft feel with a slightly higher 28 lb tension limit and about 85 g in the hand. A friendly all-round racket for club beginners and improvers who want a carbon frame on a small budget.
- Even balance suits drives and defence
- Flexible shaft helps newer players generate power
- Priced as an entry carbon racket
- Heavier than most modern attacking rackets
- Not stiff enough for fast, hard hitters
- Maximum tension is only 28 lb
Where to buy
