Tecnifibre T-Fight 280 Isoflex Tennis Racket Frame Only

The T-Fight range is Tecnifibre’s flagship tennis performance racket range, as used by world #1 Daniil Medvedev (March 2022).

The 2022 T-Fight model is equipped with the new Isoflex technology. The frame stiffness is varied across the frame through a change in the layup of different graphite composites and densities. A stiffer lay-up is applied to the area where the shorter strings are located to make the strings flex more, and a softer lay-up on longer strings to limit the string flex. The result is a more consistent string bed flex for an enhanced sweet spot, giving the player more playability and stability.

The RS Section improves on the traditional control orientated square section through a redesigned 5-sided frame geometry with specific angles to reduce frame twisting allowing for increased stiffness for more power and precision to hit those winning shots, but at the same time offer a softer, more comfortable feel on impact, giving the player more confidence in their shots. The angled geometry also provides a smoother and better connection between the head of the racket and the reworked yoke section, increasing both stability of the frame through the swing to ensure you hit that sweet spot, and the ball contact time for more comfort.

The T-Fight rackets have been developed using research from TecniLab powered by Trackman to identify 4 main types of player category and the skill sets of those players in each category. The collected data allows Tecnifibre to develop products best suited to specific player category and their specific product requirements and demands, improving their performance. The development and engineering of new products is a player to product approach that ensures players benefit from using the correct equipment for their style of play.

The Fight range is split into three sections: RSX, RSL and RS, each aimed at a different player category to meet their demands and requirements. Intermediate to Advanced players will be better suited to the RSX rackets which are available in two weights: 255g and 270g. These rackets are equipped with an RSX section that is 11% bigger than that on the standard RS frame for a more powerful and forgiving setup.

Advanced to Expert players seeking more manoeuvrability and a higher level of power and tolerance from the frame are best suited to the 280 and 295 weights that feature a thicker RSL section with a 7% larger (compared to the standard RS section on the 300g plus rackets) frame geometry for added power and frame tolerance. They also all have larger 100in2 head sizes and the more open 16 main stringing patterns for both more power and spin.

As the player’s performance and physical stature improves, there is a greater demand on the frame to provide more control and precision to master the power. The heavier Fight 300, 305 and 315 rackets all feature the standard RS section and 98in2 head sizes to bring a greater level of stability and precision. Apart from the 305 which has an 18x19 string pattern, all other weights in the TFight range have a 16x19 string pattern that allows the player to generate more power and more spin.

The racket is designed with an elegant white design with red and blue colours highlighting the brand name and racket technologies. 3D decals give the racket a premium finish.
