A lightweight pre-strung racquet for players of all skill levels, the Prince AirO Hybrid Thunder mid-plus tennis racquet offers an ideal blend of playability and control. The AirO Hybrid Thunder is outfitted with Prince's AirO technology, which replaces traditional pin-sized string holes with revolutionary giant O-Ports at the 6 and 12 o'clock positions. This creates total string freedom and an expanded sweet spot, producing a livelier response across the entire swing bed. As a result, players will hit their best shots more often, including faster and more accurate serves, more controlled volleys, and more penetrating ground strokes. O-Ports also act as "wind tunnels" to reduce aerodynamic drag, creating a quick and maneuverable frame that produces a faster swing speed. Most impressively, Prince's engineers were able to do all this without enlarging the racquet head, increasing its length, or adding weight.

The racquet also offers Prince's Triple Threat technology, a revolutionary weighting system of woven titanium copper, and carbon that's placed in three critical racquet locations: 10 o'clock, 2 o'clock, and the bottom of the handle. The system adds stability for increased power and control while reducing shock to your arm.

Head YOUTek Five Star Tennis Racquet

Head YOUTek Five Star Tennis Racquet Review

Head YOUTek Five Star Tennis Racquet Feature

the new game improvement Youtek Star Series
new Head technologies
1 Year Manufacturer Warranty.

The Head Youtek Five Star is part of the new game improvement Youtek Star Series and uses new Head technologies such as d3o, QuadFace, Control Ring and MultiZone grip in a user-friendly package. 107 sq. in. headsize, 9.6 ounce strung weight, 27.3 inch length, and 28/26mm wide beam add up to the second-most powerful racquet in the Youtek line. Slightly more maneuverable than the Youtek Six Star. Optimal for a beginning to intermediate player with a slow to moderate swing speed.

Head d3o technology acts as a "smart" material in that it behaves differently under varying dynamic loading or impact. Integrated in the frame lay-up and positioned in the shaft area (where the racquet flexes the most), d3o seeks to help players maximize performance on all shots. High speed impacts lock d3o together within nanoseconds at the molecular level, stiffening the frame to provide maximum power. Conversely, on slower speed impacts, the d3o molecules absorb the impact providing softer touch for better feel.

Head QuadFace extends the stringbed at key points of the frame providing longer strings for a larger sweetspot and more power.

The Control Ring reduces string deformation for added control and accuracy, and is located at the 2 and 10 o'clock positions on the Youtek Five Star.

New MultiZone grip has a unique, smooth, sweat-absorbing non-slip surface for greater comfort and control. One piece, slip on design.

Wilson Six.One Tour BLX Tennis Racquet

Wilson Six.One Tour BLX Tennis Racquet Review

Wilson Six.One Tour BLX Tennis Racquet Feature

Racquet is strung at the mid tension w/ Syn gut 16g.
String is at Mid Tension
1 Year Manufacturer Warranty.
Please Note: No Cover Available

The latest racquet used by Roger Federer, the Wilson Six One Tour BLX 90 picks up where the Wilson K Factor KSixOne Tour 90 left off. Wilson introduces the use of Basalt fiber (BLX) technology for improved feel and frame feedback, continuing to feature classic feel in the same tradition as the previous-generation Pro Staffs: nSixOne Tour 90, Hyper Pro Staff Tour 90 and Pro Staff Kevlar 85. 17mm flat beam and 90 square inch headsize provide the ultimate in feel and control for those players advanced enough to wield Federer's racquet of choice. Specifications are nearly identical with the past generation K Six One Tour 90. BLX builds upon the very popular K Factor design, offering a refinement of Wilson frame technology that provides the ultimate in feel and performance.

What is BLX?

Basalt is a natural volcanic rock used in manufacturing and made into fine and ultra fine gold fibers. Basalt fibers are enviornmentally friendly and superior to other fibers in terms of thermal stability, sound insluation, vibration assistance and durability. Players will find the ultimate in frequency reduction while retaining the performance of carbon fiber in terms of lightness, responsiveness, stability and rigidity.

Basalt added into racquets filters out unwanted frequencies (i.e vibrations) that reach the hand to deliver a clean feedback and sensation for the perfect feel players demand.
