Trusted by Mostafa Asal, the new Slash range is here! The Tecnifibre Slash 130 Power Squash Racquet offers an ideal mix of stability, control, and of course, power.
With a medium weight of 130 grams unstrung, and 355 mm balance point provides excellent maneuverability while still putting enough mass behind the ball to deliver good power. The 485cm² head size expands the sweet spot and widens the string bed, giving you more forgiveness on off-centre strikes combined with a nice pop of pace, while the thicker shaft construction increases stiffness, stability, and power transfer for confident, aggressive striking.
Compared to the previous Slash, the V2 has been refined with a lower swing weight for even faster racquet head acceleration, as well as new Stabyl technology in the shaft to enhance stability and control. X-TOP construction at the top of the head means that this racquet has no bumper, instead, it's been replaced by a combination of active fibres for maximum strength, speed and playability.
The 14x18 string pattern and bridged frame design add consistency and directional control, giving you the ability to attack without sacrificing accuracy. Strung with Tecnifibre’s 305 1.2mm strings, the Slash V2 130 Power is a fantastic choice for players who like to back up their attacking game with a bit more weight behind every shot.
Tecnifibre Slash V2 130 Power Squash Racquet
Explosive power with the SLASH 130 POWER squash racquet. With its 130 g weight, this is the best compromise between manoeuvrability and power for competitors at a good level as well as regular players. Designed with World Number One Mostafa Asal, the SLASH 130 POWER squash racquet retains all the fundamentals on which its success has been built, while it gains stability.
Stabyl technology, a mesh fibre inserted into the shaft’s graphite, has replaced the rubber ring for all-round performance in the details, greater control and hitting stability. The fundamentals of the frame construction remain in place, with YOKE POWER TECHNOLOGY: a wider head elongated to 485 cm² to increase string elasticity, with a narrower open core with outer reinforcements for more strength and a larger 390 mm² oversize shaft for maximum power.
Pre-strung in 305 green, the benchmark for the squash market, and Tecnifibre’s most elastic string for the ultimate compromise between power and comfort. The X-TOP revolution is also built into the product. No bumper, 100% performance, a completely new racket head construction where the bumper has been replaced by a combination of active fibres for maximum strength, speed and playability. The plastic bumper has been replaced by a mix of aramid fibres, the most impact-resistant material, and a PTFE treatment to improve slide and protect the frame against abrasion from the floor or walls. Without the bumper, the racket becomes much smoother and penetrates the air better for maximum swing speed and power. With the plastic replaced by this select material, there are more fibres in the racket for greater responsiveness and less vibration for greater comfort.
From an aesthetic point of view, we’ve reached the pinnacle of elegance and modernity, with a white base elevated with Tecnifibre corporate elements and a graphic fluorescent green stringbed developed with Mostafa who cut out the Tecnifibre logo. It symbolises his dynamic rise to World Number One!
