Constructed from Karakal NEXGEN Fast Fibre graphite, the Shadow 165 combines the benefits of graphene with our unique weave technology. This technology provides an additional 15% faster recovery than conventional graphite layups, taking control, accuracy and power to the next level. The flattened, tapered throat area provides the racket with excellent lateral stability and helps reduce torque. We have adjusted the specifications of this racket, making the grip the same length as our squash rackets and the head shape compact. As a result of these changes, the playability of this racket is very similar to a squash racket, making it much easier to transition between sports.  The Core Bridge has the effect of creating longer strings and a larger sweet spot, by modifying our existing Core Bridge we have widened the fanned string pattern, moving the sweet spot further up the head and also increasing the size, which also gives the string more coverage inside the frame. These rackets are available in two different weight options: 155 grams and 165 grams to suit your preferences.Frame weight 165 gramsCore BridgeNEXGEN Fast Fiber ConstructionTechnology Click-BridgeOne-piece constructionBalance 310mmKarakal Hot Zone Control 130 stringString pattern 16/17Recommended draw weight 27/31 lbsAll top-of-the-range Karakal racketball rackets come with a 100% recyclable Full Bag Eco cover, made from soft, eco-friendly fleece material.
