The grommets are specially made for double strings in frontenis, and they can fit 3 horizontal and 2 vertical double strings.
Weight
The low weight (270 g) makes it easier to swing the racket
The impact of the racket weight should always be considered along with the balance to assess manoeuvrability
Balance
The 33 cm balance offers excellent manoeuvrability
- Grip-biased balance: <32 cm
- Even balance: 32 cm to 33 cm
- Head-heavy balance: >34 cm
Head size
The very large head size (755 cm²) creates a larger sweetspot. This means it's easier to hit a good shot even if your centring is off. The racket is more forgiving and will give you even more power.
The different head sizes:
- Midsize – small head size: < 625 cm²
- Mid plus – standard head size: 626 - 677 cm²
- Oversize – large head size: 678 – 742 cm²
- Super oversize – very large head size: > 742 cm²
RA stiffness
Graphite gives the FTR500P a stiffness rating 67 RA, which helps return more energy for more power.
As a guide:
- Stiff frame: > 64 – 66 RA
- Flexible frame: < 64 – 66 RA.
Inertia
The weight (270 g) and balance (33 cm) make the FTR500P the most powerful racket in the range.
Length
