The technical specifications

The Head Prestige Tour, as already mentioned, has the same technical specifications as the Prestige Pro Graphene 360+: a weight of 315 grams, a 95 square inch stringbed, a 16 × 19 string pattern and a constant profile of 22 mm.

When unstrung, the balance is 31.5 cm, the stiffness 67RA (slightly higher than the previous Pro version which recorded 65RA) and the moment of inertia 311.5 kg·cm^2 (definitely higher than in the previous version). In other words: when compared to the previous Pro version, the Head Prestige Tour offers more power and less maneuverability.

As seen from lab analyses and technical specifications, the Prestige Tour is a stable boxed frame strongly devoted to control. The sweet spot, which is pretty small due to the size of the racket head, is mostly in the heart of the racket… as a consequence, shots hit away from the center drop off quickly in effectiveness.

No big news in the technologies used for the construction of the frame (graphene is the main one), other than the Auxetic graft which consists of carbon fibers intertwined in a special way to improve the feeling at contact point.
