Product details
What to know
- The manufacturer’s regional listing identifies product code AYPN248-4.
- Published weight is 84 g and balance point is 298 mm, categorized as even balance.
- Published construction is carbon fibre with Dynamic Optimum Frame terminology.
- The listing gives an S1 grip and a maximum tension of 30 lb.
What this means for you
The shared numerical fields distinguish this standard version from the more head-heavy Combat retailer record. The unresolved flex copy means a buyer should not select between the two based on a single copied adjective.
Specifications, availability, and included accessories can vary by market. Match the exact model code and seller photos before ordering.
What to check before buying
- The specification table says stiff while the manufacturer prose also calls the model flexible and medium.
- Confirm AYPN248-4, colour, grip region and whether the seller’s unit is strung or unstrung.
- The manufacturer maximum is a ceiling, not a personal tension recommendation.
Checklist before buying
- Match the complete model name, product code, colour and region to photographs of the item or original packaging.
- Confirm weight and grip code on the cone, then ask whether the stated weight includes strings, grip changes or protective tape.
- Confirm strung or unstrung condition, existing string and tension, frame damage, grommet wear and the authentic frame’s maximum tension.
- Treat balance and flex as model descriptors, not promises that the racket will suit your timing, strength or injury history.
