Tecnifibre Carboflex Basaltex Squash Racquet Series (125/130/140)

I have had this racquet for little over a year and I have had no reason to regret the decision yet. I am not a professional by any stretch but am a decent enough player. A 4.0 at a very decent club. I tore a ligament in my wrist a while ago and had to start using a lighter racquet as I couldn’t use the 140s anymore. This is much lighter and I don’t feel like I am sacrificing much power. More importantly, I feel that I have more control over my shots. The grip could have a little thicker but I replaced mine with a grip of my choice and it feels great. The black and green color combo looks cool as well.

I am playing ~2 times a week with this racket for almost two years now and its serving me really well. This racket is lightweight (125g) with a little head-heavy nature. Both the racket and factory string is sturdy enough (I didn't have to change the string yet). Would recommend for everyone!

Great product, fast delivery, much faster than expected. Tremendous stick to upgrade an attacking type of game. Previously used Head Ct115 to force myself into generating my own power through racquet head swing rather than its weight. Immediately felt the improvement on the Carboflex 125 and is so maneuverable and powerful that I can get out of tough defensive situations and switch to offense with not much effort. It is also a beautiful looking stick.

Squash players knws what's best

The racket arrived in very bad condition, with many scratches, and also had marks from the ball as if it had been played with. It's unbelievable that a new racket would arrive in this condition; it's disrespectful to the customer.

My 42-year-old Bancroft Executive "glass-powered" squash racquet with bamboo shaft finally gave up the ghost. This replacement is a different beast -- much lighter. Different feel, but it works well.

I tested this racket against the Xamsa VBO and Dunlop Revelation 135 with Technifibre 305 stings. I hit with them solo and played matches with all three. Bottom line is that I found the Xamsa VBO to be the best balanced and most versatile of the three. All three are very powerful. My most powerful shots came from Carboflex due to the lighter weight, but it performed relatively poorly on off center hits. The Revelation and VBO were right up there on there on center hits and were much more forgiving on shots closer to the frame than the Carboflex. The Carboflex is head-light, the Revelation is slightly head-heavy, and VBO is a perfect neutral. If you have a short or wristy swing, the Carboflex is nice. If you pound the ball with a bigger swing, the Revelation is nice. The VBO felt perfect though. It seems to do everything well. You can swing it with a short or loopy swing and it’s equally nice. On volleys, the Carboflex’s weight and agility really stand out. However the smaller sweet spot and lighter weight mean you have to be on point and do all the work. The slightly more head-heavy Revelation feels sluggish compared to the other two. The weight, balance, and sweet spot make the VBO awesome for volleying, especially on volleys past your opponent. None of these are what you’d consider a control racket. The string pattern on the Carboflex lend it a little more control when it’s in the sweet spot. Again with the lighter weight, if you miss the sweet spot with the Carboflex on a touch spot, it will be heading towards the tin. The VBO tends to have a little more control than the Revelation. The VBO has integral vibration dampening in the handle, thus offers nice vibration dampening without losing feel. Without a dampener, the stock Revelation vibrated the most, but once you put in 305 strings it actually vibrated less than Carboflex. I have medium sized hands, and the VBO grip felt the best. The Revelation felt sort of round, while the Carboflex was large and round. The Carboflex grip is a huge negative. The Dunlop is the only one with a decent stock grip wrap. The VBO and Carboflex didn’t wrap their grips far enough up the handle and both need to be replaced.

i love this racquet! i have only been playing with it for about a month but its amazing! dont worry about the quality of the racquet because it is really good! be patient when getting to know a racquet; any racquet, not just this one. i was hesitant about switching to this racquet from my prince racquet, but now im really happy i did! i still have my prince racquet by this is like the only racquet i ever use!

c'est ma première. Avant d'acheter j'ai tester plusieur et celle la est vraiment la meilleur. Bien balancé Pas trop lourde ou trop légère. ça fait plusieur mois et je suis satisfait

La raqueta es una bomba, justo lo que estaba buscando ! Supermanejable te permite responder mejor a golpes de revés especialmente, además aporta bastante potencia por lo que recomiendo enormemente este material.

Little guts have become loose don't know why

I have been using this racket for 20 months. It has helped shot me up my local club league into box league 1. With it's wonderful balance and precision (playing drop shots are lovely with this). Power wise, this racket is not up there with heavier rackets and loosely stringed rackets but it has enough power if you have a good swing/follow through. The sweet spot is moderate, I wouldn't recommend for an absolute beginner but certainly do for any club player of any other standard. I am reviewing this racket with the strings it came with. I have played on average, two games a week with this, that's about 160 matches...and to my shock the original strings are surviving! That sounds unbelievable. I have been waiting for the strings to finally give way for nearly a year now. I think perhaps its to do with my serving style. Most squash players that I play, serve hard and hit hard during rallies. Whereas I am a placement player, a relatively softer hitter. I do hit hard when I attempt a killer shot or a sudden hard serve to mix my serves up. So perhaps that is why the strings have lasted so long for me....but having said that, my previous racket, the popular Wilson Hammer, strings broke after a few months. So there is something more durable about these strings somehow. I know the popular advice is to restring your racket to a more advanced type of strings straight away and don't waste your racket's full potential (it's good advice if you are serious about your game) but if you are on a budget, these strings will serve you well as it is. Although, for the first few matches, the tension felt slightly taught for my liking but over time that tension slightly loosened, thus making my shots more harmonious. I also hardly ever hit my racket against the wall. In the past 20 months, I have probably hit the wall 3-4 times. When I boast I dont ever slam my racket on the wall, I wait for the ball to come away and if it doesnt come away, I would drive the ball straight back. So the frame is still in tip top shape with no noticeable scratches or stresses. I loved the Wilson Hammer (it did have a touch more power) but this racket has become my new favourite as a perfect allrounder for any standard club player (but not a beginner due to the moderate size sweetspot).

Arrivata in pochissimo tempo, prezzo inferiore al sito ufficiale. Racchetta fantastica, una delle più vendute al mondo L unico appunto è che esistono molti modelli di questa marca, con prezzi simili (carbofibre, dinastar seguite da pesi e sigle), e praticamente nessuno è in grado di spiegare le differenze. Probabilmente sono simili
