Head Metallix 4 Tennis Racquet Head Metallix 4 Tennis Racquet The Head Metallix 4 is a new slightly more control-oriented option in Head’s line. Like the Metallix 10 and Metallix 6, the Metallix 4 retains the use of Flexpoint technology and offers several new technologies for 2006.

Head Metallixis incorporated into the shaft section, making the Metallix 4 lighter and stiffer for more power.Metallixis made of a matrix of carbon fibers and a new crystalline metal alloy that is 1000 times smaller than typical metals.Head Stabilizereliminates racquet vibration and ensures the ultimate in comfort on every shot.Head LMS (Longer Main String) design lowers the bridge section to create a larger hitting surface without making the racquet any larger. The Metallix 4 is a more control-oriented option to the Metallix 6 and Metallix 10, yet still offers ample power and stability. Surprisingly controlled thanks to the “flexpoints” cut into the frame at 3:00 and 9:00.

Wilson nFury Two Tennis Racquet Wilson nFury Two Tennis Racquet Offering the legendary benefits of Wilson’s nCode technology in a lightweight frame, the Wilson nFury Two tennis racquet helps take your skills to the next level. nCode nanotechnology works by releasing untapped performance from within the racquet to deliver unparalleled stability, greater frame integrity, and explosive power. At one billionth of a meter, the nano scale is too small to see. But the difference in an nCoded racquet’s playability is too big to overlook. Racquets are made of billions of carbon fibers linked together and heat shaped. Although the carbon fibers are strong, light, and resilient, voids still exist at the nanoscopic level between the individual fibers, creating a multitude of stress points. By reinforcing the molecular structure of the frame and filling these voids, nCode technology improves a racquet’s performance while still preserving its unique playing characteristics. The end result is a racquet that’s two times stronger, twice as stable, and up to 22 percent more powerful than ordinary racquets.

Specific details include a 100-square-inch head that weighs only 9.8 ounces strung, a perforated Cushion-Aire grip, and a 27-inch length.

Specifications:

  • Head size: 100 square inches
  • Length: 27 inches
  • Weight: 9.3 ounces (unstrung), 9.8 ounces (strung)
  • String pattern: 16 x 20
  • Beam width: 22 mm, straight beam
  • Balance point: 13.4 inches
  • Balance: Head Light
  • Flex: 54
  • Composition: nCode High Modlus Graphite, nFoam-filled core
  • Swing weight: 290
  • Power level: Medium
  • Swing type: Moderate
  • Grip: Perforated Cushion-Aire

Customer Review: love this racquet !
I borrowed this racquet from a friend and loved it. Very nice feel to it. Highly recommend it.
Customer Review: Is it worth buying products on sale?
I believe Wilson rackets are durable …but i guess i was just so unlucky that the item (ncode n1 racquet) sent to me has a crack on it which I didnt notice until last April 25 when it gave in…the crack appeared. In just less than a month of use it gave it despite the fact that im just a beginner and just having my tennis clinic thus no much power yet when i hit the ball…how i wish i could have a replacement.
