The Bi-axial Dynamics frame resists twisting, the TCS system in the T-joint gives stability, the Pro V12 grommets enlarge the sweet spot, and the Xtreme Tension Frame allows higher tensions. It comes strung at 24 lbs and with a G4 grip. It performs well on attack and defense, with quick handling for doubles. Price shown at the store This store only shows the price on its own site.
