ISOMETRIC: Developed over 30 years ago, the ISOMETRIC design increases the sweet spot by 7%. Compared to a conventional round frame, a square-shaped ISOMETRIC racquet generates a larger sweet spot by optimizing the intersection of the main and cross strings.

AERO+ Box Frame: Smoother contours throughout the racquet head for less wind resistance and extra racquet speed, combined with the stability of a box frame. 

Rotational Generator System + 2G-Namd Flex Force: By applying the counterbalance theory, weight is carefully distributed throughout the grip end, frame top, and joint, enabling a smooth transition between powerful shots for rapid, successive attacks. The innovative graphite “2G-NamdTM Flex Force” used in the shaft, characterized by its quick flex and snapback, maximizes shot power and advances the performance of the Rotational Generator System.

Expanded Sweet Spot: The tailored 67cm racket length enables fast maneuverability, while the expansion of the sweet spot area by optimizing the frame design increases precision. Supports fast rallies and secures points from front-court attacks.

Nanomesh NEO - Ensures a stronger and more flexible frame, while increased shaft flex creates maximum power.

Power Assister Bumper: Attached to enforce heavier, increased power by configuring the weight directed into the shuttlecock with a tungsten-infused nylon bumper.
