At 345 to 360g with a medium balance, it is genuinely quick in the hand, so you can prepare early, react fast at the net and swing freely without tiring through a long match. The teardrop shape keeps the sweet spot central and versatile, giving you control on defence and enough punch when you step in. The EVA Black Soft core takes the sting out of every contact, which matters if you play often or have had arm niggles. Finished in deep black with pink accents and 3D detailing, it looks as sharp as it plays.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/details\u003e\u003cdetails class=\"tpd__row\"\u003e\u003csummary
