The Head YouTek Neon 130 offers the player outstanding power with great maneuverability and confort.
The frame is an excellent choice for players of all standards who are comfortable with the quadro-shaped racket and are looking for extra power in their racket.
Whether your game is aggressive and adventurous or consistent and smooth, YouTek enhances your performance and brings out the best in each match you play.
Reward your spontaneity with d3o:
d3o really does belong to the “smart materials” category and is a futuristic material with abnormal behavior characteristics. More specifically, d3o belongs to a subcategory of “dilatant foams,” which dramatically change their behavior under dynamic loading or impact.
Integrated in the lay-up and positioned in the shaft area of the racket, d3o offers a whole new range of possibilities for all standards of squash player.
The d3o technology is able to sense and adapt to the needs of the players during different strokes.
On high-speed impact aggressive shots, the smart molecules lock together within nanoseconds and dramatically increase the stiffness of the whole racket frame to provide maximum power.
On slow-speed impact shots, the d3o molecules absorb the impact to provide a softer touch for better feel.
What does this mean to a squash player?
What this means to all squash players is power shots are even harder and drop shots more precise, rewarding your spontaneity and supporting your courageous decisions.
Reduce your friction to boost your power:
HEAD grommets are designed with Teflon friction-reducing polymer which provides a low-friction contact surface, enabling the strings to slide through the grommets with next to no friction.
Moving without resistance, the strings maintain their energy during ball impact, providing more power. During the stringing process, the Teflon friction-reducing polymer in the grommet system provides a tension which is both even and consistent.
The HEAD grommet system takes away the friction between the grommet and strings resulting in both a truer tension and a larger sweet spot.
Friction is present between conventional grommets and the string. This provides a degree of resistance during ball impact, resulting in energy loss and less power.
Corrugated Technology:
HEAD’s corrugated technology is a revolutionary new shaft design that optimizes power, torsion, bending and handling on every stroke.
How this works:
Corrugated rails are incorporated into the shaft of the racket, creating up to 12% more stiffness than conventional racket design.
