Description: FORTYFIVE° improves flexibility and stability to give a more connected-to-the-ball feel while better complimenting most competitive players’ contemporary, vertical swing path. For increased feel and torsional stability, DirectConnect extends the carbon fiber handle to connect directly to the end cap. Frame morphs between hues of green and copper thanks to a dynamic, color-shifting elastic surface. The Top Grip Taper improves the feel of the top-hand grip. End Cap with Ergonomic Design improves comfort and playability. Drilling in parallel produces a more constant and forgiving string bed reaction.

Description

The Blade 100L v8 packs the technical advances of the Blade v8 range into a lighter, more nimble chassis, emitting dynamic vibes owing to vivid, color-shifting paint. The development of this frame is defined by two innovations: A patent-protected carbon structure provides additional flexibility and stability, while DirectConnect joins the carbon fiber handle to the end cap for improved feel and torsional stability. The lightweight, connected-to-the-ball sensation this frame provides will appeal to die-hard Blade enthusiasts searching for a somewhat more arm-friendly choice.

Features:

Parallel Drilling – Grommet structure ensures a more constant, forgiving string bed response while also significantly expanding the sweet spot.

Top Grip Taper – On the two-handed backhand, the tapered grip provides superior feel for top-handed grip placement.

FORTYFIVE° – The patent-protected frame layup creates a more connected-to-the-ball sensation while matching the more contemporary vertical swing path. Through the swing, the material gains both flexibility and stability without sacrificing either.

DirectConnect – For increased feel and torsional stability, the carbon fiber handle extends to directly link with the end cap.
