1. Tecnifibre Carboflex 125 X-Top V2 Squash Racket

Tecnifibre Carboflex 125 X-Top V2 Squash Racket

Used by Mohamed El Shorbagy!

  • Weight: 125g
  • Balance: Even
  • Head Shape: Teardrop

With the design inspired by Mohamed El Shorbagy, the Carboflex X-Top V2 uses a revolutionary design for faster swing speeds. Tecnifibre removed the plastic bumper from the top of the racket and replaced it with aramid fibres (the same materials used in bullet-proof vests) and added PTFE (Teflon) within the frame for maximum shock resistance. This racket cuts through the air quicker than its predecessors for even more power and playability. The X-Top also comes pre-strung in Tecnifibre's premium Dynamix V.P string as standard for maximum power. This racket is also available in 120, 125 NS, 130, 135 and Junior models. 

Following on from the previous version of the Carboflex, this racket performs incredibly! Check out our full review on YouTube.

2. Head Speed 120 Slimbody 2023 Squash Racket

Head Speed 120 Slimbody 2023 Squash Racket

So good it was used by the former World no.1 Paul Coll!

  • Weight: 120g
  • Balance: Even
  • Head Shape: Teardrop

As previously used by the 2021 British Open Champion and World No.3 (January 2024), Paul Coll, this racket is a rival to the Tecnifibre Carboflex 125 X-Top. The updated Auxetic technology offers an enhanced feel over its predecessor and the improved frame design allows the strings to move more resulting in extra power. The Adaptive Fan Stringing Pattern also allows you to string for more power or more control (it comes strung for power from factory).

A very cool choice! I absolutely love the look of this racket and it performs equally well
