For 2017 Dunlop has re-engineered the frame lay-up to incorporate Hyperfibre ballistic fibres into new areas of the racket, the 2 and 10 o’clock positions, which:

Increases racket stiffness and weight distribution in the top section of the hoop for extra swing weight and greater power

Enhances racket stability for greater control

Increases frame durability in the most vulnerable part of the racket giving player more confidence to attack the ball

Engineering advances in the layup allow for a sharper leading edge up to 9% smaller cross section in hoop allowing the beam to cut through the air faster with more elastic power than conventional beams.

Grommet holes, pegs and string are in exact alignment across the main hitting area, this allows for greater string moment and response. This increases the sweet spot size for more power, more spin, and more forgiving feel.

Ultra Fast Skin

Engineered surface texture mimicking shark skin which smooth's airflow and reduces drag by up to 35% over non-textured surfaces.

Reduces Friction - Engineering advances in the layup allow for a sharper leading edge up to 9% smaller cross section in hoop allowing the beam to cut through the air faster with more elastic power than conventional beams.

Increased Durability - Glide polymer also reinforces the polymer matrix increasing durability and grommet life by up to 40%.

Hybrid power properties of an oval cross section in the head with the stability and comfort of a box section in the shaft portion of the racket helps provide more power than previous models without loss of control.

The conical tapered shaft delivers outstanding racket resilience and enhances overall racket stiffness. This powerful combination gives the shaft greater energy return on impact for increased whipping power.
