Main Material

Weight

The outsole is made from ultra-durable rubber. By studying how tennis players move on the court, we were able to create the optimal sole shape for comfort and durability.

Sole

The upper is reinforced around the toes and instep for greater durability while sliding and moving around the court.

Reinforced upper

The lightweight shank, made of Pebax® elastomers, is shaped at the forefoot to ensure better energy return and flexibility.

The Pebax Powered® branding program aims to showcase the high performance of Pebax® material in sportswear. Pebax® and Pebax Powered® are registered trademarks of Arkema.

 

Pebax® material

After several years of R&D by Artengo and the Decathlon SportsLab, the patented Lateral Cushioning System (Lateral CS) guarantees sustained lower impacts from the ground for tennis players.

Biomechanical studies carried out on tennis players' movements revealed that "high impact durability" foam, when placed strategically in the sole, could reduce the force of impact by 13% (compared to the 2019 TS 990 model).

 A racket’s weight affects its swing weight, and therefore its manoeuvrability, stability, and ability to transfer energy to the ball (power). The heavier the racket, the more power you get—but the harder it is to handle. Lighter rackets are easier to handle, but the trade-off is less power.

Weight (unstrung)

31.5 cm.

Balance: The racket balance point is measured in centimetres from the butt of the handle. The higher the number (head heavy), the more powerful and stable upon impact. However, it will also be harder to manoeuvre. The smaller the number (grip biased or handle heavy), the easier it is to handle the racket but with less power and stability.

Balance (unstrung)

645 cm².

 Head size is the surface area of the racket head measured in square centimetres. It affects the racquet’s forgiveness and power. The larger the head, the more powerful and forgiving the racket. However, you have less control. Smaller racket heads provide more control, but less forgiveness and power.

Head size

72 RA.

RA is a measurement of racket stiffness, or how much it bends when it hits the ball. The higher the RA, the less the racket bends. The energy lost on impact is minimized and returned to the ball. Generally, a stiffer racket means more power.

SW: 285.

Swing weight impacts a racket’s handling and ability to transfer energy to the ball (power). A racket with a higher swing weight will be more powerful but harder to handle. Conversely, a racket with a lower swing weight will be easier to handle, but the trade-off is less power. Swing weight is derived from the racket’s weight, balance, and length.

Swing weight (unstrung)

16 x 19.

 The string pattern is the number of vertical strings times the number of horizontal strings. The more strings the pattern has, the more "closed" it is; the fewer it has, the more "open" it is. A closed string pattern offers greater control, but less power and spin. An open string pattern provides more power and spin, but less control.

Stringing

69 cm.

 This is the length of the racket from the bottom of the grip to the top of the head and is measured in centimetres. The longer the racquet, the more power you get—but the harder it will be to handle. The shorter the racket, the easier it will be to manoeuvre, but you’ll get less power.

Length

MPO technology allows mass to be distributed inside the racke tfor optimal handling and stability on impact.
It also reduces weight and balance fabrication tolerance by 40%. This helps create consistent racquets that meet final specs/usage conditions.

MPO technology

The racquet’s grommets feature Spin Concept technology, which improves string movements upon impact and increases spin.

The fact that it is very rigid improves your hitting power.

 The string pattern is the number of vertical strings times the number of horizontal strings. The more strings a pattern has, the more closed it is. Fewer strings mean a more open pattern. A closed string pattern offers greater control, but less power and spin. An open string pattern provides more power and spin, but less control.

Built-in storage for the ball and cord. Easy to fill and empty.

Ease of use

Reduced environmental impact thanks to the recycled-plastic base.

Eco-design

Durable elastic cord that won’t get twisted.

Durability

A portable device designed for practising your tennis stroke.

Frequency

The shock-resistant base is made of high-density polyethylene.
It can be ballasted with water or sand (1.5 L) and has 4 flexible feet to keep it perfectly stable during play, even on hard shots.

Base

The sturdy elastic cord is 2.5 mm in diameter and 4.5 m long.
It’s secured through a hole in the base and less likely to get tangled than the cords on other models.

Cord

Comes with a pressureless ball equipped with a slot to attach the elastic cord. 
Fits the Artengo TB 160 ball.

Ball

We recommend making contact with the ball directly above the base when you swing. This will ensure the ball always comes back to roughly the same spot, making it easier to hit successive shots.
Kids and anyone looking to practise gentler shots are advised to position themselves ahead of the base, while
adults who hit the ball hard should stay behind it.

Instructions for use

Using recycled plastics allows us to reduce resource depletion while maintaining the product quality and durability our customers expect.

Thanks to its aluminium frame, the TR100 is very flexible (rigidity of 58 RA) for power and comfort. However, it is less precise than a stiffer racket.

Low inertia thanks to its weight (270g) and neutral balance (33 cm).

Our designers have developed this pure graphite Racket that provides excellent handling for your first practice sessions.

Its weight (270 g) makes it easier to manoeuvre the head of the racquet.

Guide:
- Less than 260 g: light racquets for improved manoeuvrability.
- 260 to 295 g: classic racquets (intermediate), for versatility.
- 300 to 315 g: for players who already have good technique and need more power and precision.
- 315 g: racquets for top-level competitors.

The TR 160 Graph's 33 cm balance point makes it very easy to handle the racquet. As a result you will find it easier to swing the tennis Racket and subsequently hit the ball in the direction you want.

The trade-off between its weight (270g) and its balance (33cm) gives the TR 160 Graph the weakest inertia of the entire range. This makes it easier to play.

Inertia

Thanks to its 100% graphite composition, the TR 160 Graph has a rigidity (RA) of 68, which is 20% more than an aluminum racquet. This returns more energy to the ball while hitting.

Guide:
- Stiff frame: > 64 – 66 RA
- Soft frame: < 64 – 66 RA.

The racquet's 660 cm² head size provides a comfortable surface to hit the ball. Consequently, the Racketis more forgiving of off-centre shots. This Racketis much more forgiving.

For more information on head sizes:
- Midsize – small head size: < 625 cm²
- Mid plus – standard head size: 626 - 677 cm²
- Oversize – large head size: 678 – 742 cm²
- Super oversize – very large head size: > 742 cm²

Vibration dampening

Provides good manoeuvrability: 260 g with a 34 cm balance.

Features markings for correct hand placement on the grip.

Ease of learning

An all-graphite adult racquet, ideal for beginners.

Inertia indicates how heavy a racquet feels when you swing it. The lower the inertia value, the easier it is to swing.

The TR190 Lite V2 has a low inertia of 245 kg/cm². 

Guide: 
- < 255 kg/cm²: manoeuvrable, well suited to players with a light swing.
- 255–275 kg/cm²: versatile.
- > 275 kg/cm²: powerful, well suited to players with a hard swing.

The markings on the grip indicate where to position your hands when learning the three main tennis strokes: forehand, backhand, and serve.

Grip markings

This racquet’s light 260 g frame makes it easier to swing and manoeuvre.

Guide:
- Less than 260 g: lightweight racquets, for comfort and easy handling.
- 260–295 g: classic racquets (intermediate), for versatility.
- 300–315 g: for players who already have good technique and need more power and precision.
- 315 g: for highly skilled, competitive players.

Its texture and non-slip structure provide plenty of grip.
