The result is a professional-grade blade that combines advanced materials, intelligent construction, and championship-level design.
Construction & Composition
Inner Ply (7 Layers): Kiri inner ply incorporate a sophisticated layer structure designed for explosive power and finely tuned touch:
Intermediate Plies (Layers 3 & 5): Ayous, a soft yet stable wood, acts as a cushioning layer that enhances dwell time and improves ball control.
Carbon Layers (Layers 2 & 6): Cured Aramid Carbon—an advanced composite material—delivers exceptional energy transfer, increased stiffness, and a stable sweet spot for powerful, direct shots.
Outer Plies (Layers 1 & 7): African Koto, a dense hardwood, forms the outer veneer, offering a crisp and sharp feel at ball impact, ideal for aggressive topspin and counter-attacks.
This composite structure ensures a perfect synergy of speed, control, and feedback, with each material selected to optimize performance at the highest level.
Playing Characteristics
Speed: Exceptionally high due to the carbon reinforcement and hard outer plies—ideal for dominating rallies with fast topspin and aggressive strokes.
Control: Despite its speed, the Ayous inner layers and precise construction provide ample feedback and a stable response, allowing for strategic ball placement.
Touch & Feel: Offers a sensitive touch on contact, giving players excellent ball feel and timing in both offensive and transitional play.
