DESCRIPTION: The Tecnifibre Fire 285 newly redesigned is a speedy, light-weight racquet with impressive power and spin. Light-weight at about 300 grams strung with a 16X19 string pattern in a 100 sq in face, makes it an ideal racquet for rising juniors and intermediates looking for a fast racquet without losing power and control. Speed and maneuverability make it an ideal racquet for net play and fast doubles points. Featuring the X-Damp dampening system, which combines a steel mass in the butt cap with elastomer supports to absorb harsh vibrations at the source, it is arm friendly and comfortable while still packing a big punch. Also featuring the Iso-flex tech to create a uniform string bed and the redesigned square shaped beam, the 16X19 string pattern provides ample spin to keep the opponents off balance. Fast, spin friendly in a comfortable frame is a must try for juniors and intermediates.
