Features : 

ISOMETRIC: Developed over 30 years ago, the ISOMETRIC design increases the sweet spot by 7%. Compared to a conventional round frame, a square-shaped ISOMETRIC racquet generates a larger sweet spot by optimizing the intersection of the main and cross strings.

AERO+ Box Frame: Smoother contours throughout the racquet head for less wind resistance and extra racquet speed, combined with the stability of a box frame. 

Rotational Generator System: By applying the counterbalance theory, weight is distributed throughout the grip end, frame top, and the joint for maximum control. The transition to the next shot can be performed smoothly, with rapid succession.

Slim Shaft: Improved aerodynamics and flex, increasing precision and accuracy. 

Power Assister Bumper: Attached to enforce heavier, increased power by configuring the weight directed into the shuttlecock with a tungsten-infused nylon bumper.
