Version · 2 optionsLight 8.1Change
The Forza Light 8.1 has a thin, aerodynamic frame, is light, and is head-heavy. It was designed for the fast pace of doubles, with excellent playability and almost no twisting. It weighs 78 g, has a stiff flex and a balance point of 297 mm. Frame and shaft are Ultra High Modulus 40T graphite. The thinner, lighter frame gives faster strokes, and the head weight helps create a threat from the back of the court when turning defense into attack.

How the RR Score was calculated
| Criterion | Weight | Score |
|---|---|---|
| Specs | 65% | 55 |
| Approval from players | 35% | 65 |
The RR Score is not yet a precise figure. It summarizes the data we have today (specs and reviews) and changes as more information comes in. A low score does not mean the racquet is bad and does not reflect its technical quality: often it is just missing data or reviews. The specs combine several sources and may have discrepancies: check the manufacturer's website and the store where you buy.
