Tennis Racket 270 g - Power Lite TR 990 Red/Black

Power

Its rigidity and its 16x19 string pattern increase power.

Handling

270 g racket with low swingweight for easier handling.

Spin

16 x 19 string pattern and 645 cm² head size for good spin.

Stability

MPO technology for optimal balance of handling and stability on impact.

Weight (unstrung)

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

Balance (unstrung)

32 cm. 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 the racket will be upon impact. However, it will also be harder to manoeuvre. The smaller the number (grip biased or handle heavy), the easier the racket will be to handle but you'll have less power and stability.

Head size

645 cm². Head size is the surface area of the racket head measured in square centimetres. It affects the racket’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.

RA

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

Swing weight (unstrung)

SW: 250. 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 racquet’s weight, balance, and length.

Length

68.5 cm (27") Length: This is the length of the racket from the bottom of the grip to the top of the head. It 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.

Profile

Elliptical cross section 25mm/25mm/23mm

MPO technology

MPO technology allows mass to be distributed inside the racket for 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.

HMC

High modulus carbon improves stiffness.

Stringing

Original strings: Monofilament polyester, gauge: 1.30 mm Tension: 23 kg +/- 2 kg
