Specifications:
Weight = Highweight (255 g / 9.0 oz): Higher weight rackets are designed for kids aged 8-10 (25 inch) and 9-11 (26 inch). They offer young players more control and stability and require more strength than lower-weight rackets.
Balance = Head-Light (310 mm / 0.8 in HL): Light and easy to handle, this racket is designed for young players. With more weight at the handle, it offers better control and manoeuvrability, helping kids develop their skills with ease.
Head size = Junior Large (648 cm² / 100 in²): With a larger head size, these rackets provide more power and a bigger sweet spot. Ideal for kids aged 8-10 (25-inch) and 9-11 (26-inch), they help young players hit the ball with more ease and confidence while developing their skills.
String Pattern = Power & Spin (16/19): The 16×19 string pattern, with 16 main and 19 cross strings, is more open, allowing for greater spin and power. The wider spacing between the strings enables the ball to sink deeper, creating more power and responsiveness, making it ideal for aggressive baseline players who rely on spin and speed.
Beam = Thin-Beam (22 mm): Thin beams offer more control and precision, ideal for advanced players. They provide better ball feel but generate less power, requiring faster swing speeds.
