The Gamma RCF Obsidian 16 is made of Toray T700 carbon, with a lot of bite on the ball, control and power, and a 16 mm polymer core, which helps with precision. The molded foam handle and the foam edges reduce vibration and give stability. The shape is elongated, at 416 x 190 mm, and the weight is about 8.1 oz. It is customizable with end caps and weighted Shockbusters, sold separately.

How the RR Score was calculated

CriterionWeightScore
Specs65%70
Approval from players35%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.
