A very light (70 g frame) Karakal with a head-heavy 305 mm balance and a medium shaft, so it swings fast but still puts some weight into the shot. It suits improvers and intermediate players who want a light racket with attacking potential.
- Published 305 mm head-heavy balance on a 70 g frame gives power for the weight
- 6U weight makes it quick to swing and easy on the arm
- Supplied strung with a cover
- Very light frame is less stable against heavy hits
- Karakal's own page was sold out and Tennis Nuts marks it discontinued, so stock may be the last of a run
- Flex comes from retailers only; no independent review found
