The lightest Z-Star Control: a 78 g racket with a flexible shaft but a head-heavy balance. It lets a player with a moderate swing get depth from the head weight while keeping the frame easy to move.
- Very light frame, quick to swing and recover
- Flexible shaft helps power from a short swing
- Head-heavy balance still gives depth on clears
- Tension limit is only 24 lbs
- Light flexible frame twists on hard, off-centre hits
- No independent review found
