This improvement in performance is the result of the Catapult springs attached to the outer edge of the Frame. When the ball strikes, they distort like elastic, so that the ball plunges deeper into the string bed. As a result, the ball can be better controlled. At exactly the right moment the springs enable the string bed to reset more quickly and the ball is catapulted more powerfully towards the opponent. Pre-loading – activation of the Catapult springsThe Catapult springs are positioned on top of the Frame, unattached, and are pre-tensioned while the racquet is being strung. The strings activate the springs. Control-phase – ball entry phaseWhen the ball strikes, the Catapult springs give and tension themselves. As a result the strings form a deeper pocket and so the ball entry phase is lengthened. The ball can be noticeably better controlled. Power-Phase – ball exit phaseAt maximum tension the Catapult springs reset themselves with considerable force, accelerating the resetting of the string bed. As a result of this Catapult effect the ball acceleration is increased and the ball exit phase is significantly reduced.
