Technology
Speed Series Engineering
The Speed series is built around the principle of fast, fluid play — with frame geometry and beam dimensions optimised to generate effortless pace on groundstrokes and serves. The Speed Elite 2026 brings this philosophy to players at the start of their tennis journey, with a forgiving setup that rewards developing technique.
Optimised Beam & String Pattern
The 25mm beam and 16/19 string pattern work together to provide a lively, responsive string bed that generates power on contact whilst maintaining enough control for consistent placement — ideal for players still developing their swing.
