Product Description
Endorsed bySteffi Graf, the Head Airflow 1 is the most control-oriented option in Head’s newAirflow line. Designed to be a”function over fashion”line of racquets, the Airflow series is meant to suit the performance-oriented needs of a female player.Head’s market research suggested that the ideal women’s racquet should be lightweight, maneuverable, and ergonomically suited to a woman’s hand. All 3 of these key criteria have been addressed in the Airflow series.The Airflow 1 weighs in at 9.50 oz. strung, with a 99 square inch headsize, and has a very maneuverable swingweight of 294 kg*sq.cm thanks to the standard 27 inch length. The ergonomic handle is thinner at the top and thicker at the bottom to best fit the anatomical structure of a woman’s hand, reducing twist and torque for more comfort and less strain on the arm. The result is superior handling and enhanced ball control, especially for the two-handed backhand.The Airflow 1 retains the use of Flexpoint technology for outstanding control and utilizes Head’s new material, Metallix, to add stiffness and power.Metallix is made of a matrix of carbon fibers and a new crystalline metal alloy that is 1000 times smaller than typical metals.Racquet SpecificationsHeadsize: 99 sq. in.Length: 27.00 in.Weight (strung): 9.50 oz.Stiffness (Babolat RDC): 76Balance: 14.27 in.
