A mid-range racket from SOTX's CP line, a Chinese brand that briefly sold in the UK around 2008-2010. It was positioned as a professional all-rounder, less stiff and lighter than the CP-6000 and CP-7000 above it.
- Force-Pro damping aimed to cut vibration
- Less stiff than the dearer CP models, so easier on the arm
- Takes up to 30 lb
- Balance point never published in the sources found
- Brand is hard to find or service in the UK now
Where to buy
None of the UK shops we check sell it right now, so it may only be available abroad. Researched price: £80.
