DIRECTCONNECT New carbon fiber handle technology constructed directly to the endcap that increases tortional stability for enhanced power and feel.

AGIPLAST BUMPERS & GROMMETS A bio-based plastic derived from castor bean oil creates a more eco-friendly racket strong enough to perform at an elite level

DESIGN DNA

COLOR-SHIFTING PAINT Blade v8 pushes design boundaries while staying true to the philosophy of uncontaminated racket design. This time it’s manifested through a bold colorway that shifts through a landscape of colors as you swing — from an earthy green to elemental copper. The rest is in the meticulous details, creating a racket that wants to be held for the player bold enough to pick one up.
