Tecnifibre T.Rebound Tempo Women’s Racquets Aimed at Increasing Maneuverability and Fun Factor
Russian Daria Kasatkina stormed to the finals of the BNP Paribas Open at Indian Wells Tennis Garden. She defeated Sloane Stephens, Caroline Wozniacki, Angelique Kerber, and Venus Williams before running out of gas against an in-form Naomi Osaka. She played an enthralling brand of tennis with some inspired shot making and world class defending. She also got tennis fans curious about her new Tecnifibre Racquet.
On April 16, Tecnifibre is launching a landmark line of racquets designed for female players. The T-Rebound Tempo series is all about giving 2.0-3.5 NTRP women more confidence and more racquet head speed using more maneuverable equipment. The frames are 26 1/2 inches (1/2 inch less than standard length) but the frame cross sections have been re-engineered to maintain stability and power.
Racquet | Weight (unstrung) | Headsize | Balance | Length | String Pattern | Beam | Grip |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
T.Rebound 290 | 10.7 ounces | 100 | 2 pts HL | 26.5 inches | 16 x 19 | 24/25/26 mm | Black |
T.Rebound 270 | 9.5 ounces | 100 | Even Balance | 26.5 inches | 16 x 19 | 24/25/26 mm | White |
T.Rebound 260 | 9.2 ounces | 105 | Even Balance | 26.5 inches | 16 x 19 | 24/25/26 mm | White |
T.Rebound 26 Jr | 8.9 ounces | 100 | Even Balance | 26 inches | 16 x 19 | 24/25/26 mm | White |
Daria Kasatkina endorses the 290 T.Rebound Tempo (left), the heaviest in the Rebound line at just under 11 ounces with a 100 sq in headsize. The 270 T.Rebound Tempo has a 100 square inch head but a lighter 10 ounce weight, followed by the 260 which bumps the head size to 105′ square inches and weighs in at under 10 ounces. They also offer a racquet designed for young junior players the T-Rebound Tempo 26. At about 9.5 ounces with a 100 square inch head, the Tempo 26 is fast and responsive option for players beginning to exhibit full swings on both sides.
The innovation theme continues as Tecnifibre has updated their Rackpack for 2018. Building on their redesigned bag from 2017, The Rebound Endurance Rackpack keeps your frames stored in the center compartment of the bag, and leaves outer compartments for accessories. You can fully customize your bags interior with the velcro dividers inside the main compartment. The end shoe compartment holds up to 2 pairs of shoes. Tecnifibre makes a backpack, and a more traditional 6-pack bag in the T-Rebound style as well (below).
There is also a new Air Endurance Rackpack, backpack, and 9 pack available to match the T-Fight Line of racquets. (Shown below)
