Brand new, never been used, still with the protective wrapper on. Prince 2007/2008 Triple Threat. Red/white coloration. This is a terrific racquet for up to an intermediate level player. The great thing about this racquet is that it is very light without being super expensive.
Here is why you should consider this racquet---You may have heard about Triple Threat--it is the hot thing in Prince's top of the line tennis racquets and now it is in squash racquets as well. Triple Threat with Tungsten places titanium, copper, carbon and tungsten in three critical racquet locations: 10 o'clock , 2 o'clock and at the bottom of the handle. A phenomenally stable racquet design is created, with a huge sweet spot for more power and precision than ever. It optimizes the weight distribution for perfect balance and maximum stability while enlarging the sweet spot. So--you get light, strong, and responsive all at the same time--that's the big deal.
The racquet head is in a teardrop shape with a twist--instead of perpendicular stringing, the strings are set in a power fan. The strings on the vertical axis all fan out from a concentrated area at the bottom of the racquet head--that fanning allows longer stringing to be used with a more concentrated central area where the majority of your shots are struck--MORE POWER, LARGER SWEETSPOT. All told, the enlarged sweetspot, particularly at the top of the racquet is ideal for dealing with an opponent who is feeding you balls that leave you glued to the wall or stuck in the corner. This is the latest, greatest thing in stringing technology and becoming the standard in high-end racquets.
Additionally, this racquet features a PowerScoop neck. It is concave and made to transfer maximum power while being more absorbent on wall and floor impacts (hopefully not too many opponent head impacts--be careful out there...--call a let).
The weight of this racquet is 140 grams unstrung. That's on par with the top of the line models that coe 2-3 times as much!!! Optimal racquet weight is more a matter of personal preference and it should be noted that light isn't always better. What light does is give you the ability to have greater touch and accuracy, and perhaps better deception. Similarly, many players believe that you fatigue less swinging a lighter racquet--that's an important consideration in a long, tough gut-check matches where you have to dig deep. As far as power goes, you mix a greater racquet swing speed with less heft so overall power is approximately what you might expect in a heavier racquet. All told, the overall accuracy and power make it an unbeatable combination for the right player.
This racquet features a mid-to large sized head. At 75 square inches (485 square cm) it is fairly typical and familiar size and allows for an optimal balance of racquet speed, balance, and accuracy. This size is a little more forgiving and helps you keep the ball in play. Coupled with the larger sweetspot arising from the innovative stringing and shape and you have a greater margin of error. That is crucially important against a highly skilled opponent. Frequently you have adequate time to set up for and make a nice return but the true test of an excellent player is how you perform under pressure, off-balance, in an awkward stance, pressed for time--a better racquet gives you an edge under conditions like this. Against a skilled player, they are trying their best to put you in such a position all the time.
The racquet comes pre-strung with Prince's own premium racquet string. Finally, the racquet is equipped with a protective lightweight, low-friction plastic covering on the exterior, particularly around the topmost part of the racquet. After you've broken your first few racquets scraping returns from tight rail shots or digging a well-placed ball out of the corner, you'll appreciate this little feature. Also included is a full-length racquet cover--reasonably important to keep you racquet and stringing protected while extending the useful life and performance.
