At 165 g unstrung and with a teardrop shape, it combines a high sweet spot with a head that is light to swing, which makes it easier to generate power through swing speed. It keeps the 13 mm head-heavy balance and the 3K, M40 and T-700 carbon construction with Solid Frame of the other AXS racquets. It is explosive and responsive for those who like to attack with quick shots.
