Core1 Technology

FEATURE:
Once the ball collides with the strings of the Core1 racquet, the frame consisting of two independent cylinders, responds. Upon impact one cylinder (A) reacts and flexes creating a vibration pattern. At the same time the other cylinder (B) reacts and flexes creating an opposite vibration pattern. A wood core spine, which links the two cylinders, allows these opposing vibrations to collide, which neutralizes the shock. Wood is a natural filter of vibrations. While managing the collision to reduce shock it also shapes the vibrations into solid information to the player during the shot.

PREMISE:
Brings the "feel" back into tennis. Much of the new technology is devoted to power and lightness. Control and feel have been sacrificed. ProKennex believes it is time to make tennis more enjoyable by bringing back the feel of the ball and the fun of the game.

THE RESULT:
The player feels the ball on the strings because much of the disruptive initial shock is eliminated while the wood shapes the vibrations into information a player can use.

Benefits:
  • Better feel of the ball on the strings
  • More focused energy transfer
  • Better control
  • Easier on the body
