At 345–360g it is one of the lightest advanced-level rackets we sell, and the open \u003cstrong\u003eDynamic Air Flow\u003c\/strong\u003e heart is there for exactly one reason: to make it move faster through the air at the net.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat adidas put in it.\u003c\/strong\u003e A Carbon Aluminized 24K face — adidas's second-stiffest fibre, chosen here for durability and a crisp response rather than extra flex — over an \u003cstrong\u003eEVA Soft Energy\u003c\/strong\u003e core, the medium-density rubber that sits between the soft comfort core and the hard High Memory one. That pairing is the point of this racket: a face that stays precise on fast exchanges with a core that still gives you ball speed on slow, deep shots from the back. The Spin Blade texture is moulded into the face (not a decal), the centre holes are the smaller 11mm \u003cstrong\u003e11 Thirteen\u003c\/strong\u003e pattern for rigidity and durability, and the handle is adidas's longer Extra Power Grip.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho it suits.\u003c\/strong\u003e adidas rate it “pro level, intensive use”, and the shape and weight say control player: right-siders who volley a lot, players coming down from a heavy diamond who want their reactions back, and strong women's and juniors-to-adult players who find 365g frames slow. It is not a smash machine — the sweet spot is central and the balance is even — but it is very hard to get out of position with.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIs this the racket for you?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eYes\u003c\/strong\u003e if you want a light, quick, round control frame with a firm face and a bit of help from the core.
