Handles
You can choose one out of five different blade handles: anatomic (AN), flared (FL), straight (ST), Japanese pen-hold, Chinese pen-hold. For some models, an extra small (XS) or large handle (FL XL) is also available.
Anatomic (AN)
The anatomic grip is shaped to fit perfectly in oneís palm. Recommended for larger hands it seems relatively thick and allows a firm grip.
Flared (FL)
With the shape of a swallowís tail, the flared grip prevents the blade from slipping. It lies firmly in oneís palm, yet it is relatively flexible.
Straight (ST)
The straight handle supports every blade grip with emphasis on an active use of the wrist.
Pen-hold (JPN)
Japanese Penhold style grips are suited best for the sole use of one side of the blade. Their focus lies mainly on a wide variation of different wrist techniques.
Pen-hold (CHN)
Chinese Penhold style grips are short and allow the use of both sides of the racket (Chinese penhold style). Their focus lies mainly on a wide variation of different wrist techniques.
FL Large (XL)
The "FL Large" handle is longer and thicker compared to traditional "FL" handles. It is thus most suited for large hands and features the same safe grip with flexibility FL handles have to offer.
XXS (FL)
Compared to traditional "FL" handles, the "XXS" handle is shorter and thinner, thus most suited for small hands of young players. XXS offers the same safe grip with flexibility that make FL handles so popular.
