Specifications
Construction & Benefits
Choosing 5U or 6U
5U: Approximately 75–79 g
Choose 5U if you prefer a little more overall mass while staying within a lightweight racket class. Maximum string tension: 28 lbs.
6U: Approximately 70–74 g
Choose 6U if reducing overall racket weight is your priority. Maximum string tension: 27 lbs.
Weight ranges are approximate unstrung classes. Strings and additional grips increase playing weight.
Who It’s For
Beginner to Intermediate Players
A useful option for players developing their attacking strokes who want a flexible, lightweight setup for singles or doubles.
Compare Another Profile If
You prefer the feedback of a stiff shaft, a heavier swing or a head-light balance. Compare with a racket you already find comfortable.
Stringing & Tension Guide
Supplied pre-strung at 24 lbs. You can begin with the included setup and assess its feel before choosing a restring.
5U Limit: 28 lbs
Do not exceed the tension rating marked on your racket.
6U Limit: 27 lbs
The lighter version has a lower maximum than 5U.
For future restringing, ask your stringer to match string durability and feel to your needs. Start from a tension you find comfortable; maximum tension is a limit, not a recommended target.
