Item Description

HEAD Intellifiber. Smarter racquet, better game.  This raquest has a 4 3/8 inch grip.  Head measures 10 inches by 14 inches.

HEAD intellifiber™.
Extraordinary features create incomparable power and playability. What makes Intelligence™ Technology possible in racquets is HEAD’s breakthrough intellifiber™ – a new fiber created from piezoelectric material. Extraordinarily different from conventional materials, HEAD’s intellifiber™ transforms the mechanical energy from ball impact into an electrical response that stiffens the racquet for ultimate power.


Feature
HEAD’s intellifiber™ created from piezoelectric materials, has breakthrough new properties which make them extraordinarily unique and different from traditional materials.

Energy Transformation
Using the mechanical energy of ball impact and converting it – in less than a millisecond – into electrical energy.

Controllable Shape Change
An electrical impulse actively changes the shape of the intellifibers™ for more stiffness.


The Power Benefit
In less than the first millisecond of ball impact, HEAD intellifibers™ create an active resistance, they stiffen and reduce bending in the throat area for unmatched power in current racquet design. No matter how strong the material, a traditional racquet will still bend upon ball impact. This bending causes a loss of potential power and control.


The Dampening Benefit
Unlike mechanical energy, electrical energy does not create vibrations. Therefore, 2O% of the vibrations are immediately eliminated upon ball impact for optimum comfort.

Item Special Note
