It has a 12.7 mm core thickness, a weight of 7.5-7.8 oz, a 5.25 in handle and a 4.25 in grip circumference. It was developed with the world number 1, Anna Leigh Waters, and performs well in the hands of offensive players. The PT-700 unidirectional raw carbon face, from Toray 700, gives spin and precision, and there is a PT-07 stabilization layer. The 12.7 mm Bantam core and the tennis-inspired 5.25 in handle give maneuverability and power. Price shown at the store This store only shows the price on its own site.

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. ## Community 0 review(s) and comment(s) No reviews yet.
