Fastest Response, Determined by Initial Speed This racket features Izanas Carbon placed in the outer layer (directly beneath the surface material). It eliminates the "flex" of the wood, allowing the power of the Izanas Carbon to be transferred to the ball more directly. This is a racket for super-aggressive players who fight in the front and middle court. ■ Offensive ■ Material: 5-ply wood + 2-ply Izanas® Carbon ■ Grip: Chinese Penhold ■ Size: Overall Length 240 x Width 150 (mm) Grip: Length 83 x Thickness 23 (mm) I am very sorry, but I am not considering a price reduction.
