- X-TOP – All the rackets in the range are equipped with X-TOP revolution, whereby the plastic bumper has been removed. It has been replaced by a mix of aramid fibres, the most impact-resistant material, and a PTFE treatment to improve slide and protect the frame against abrasion from the floor or walls. Without the bumper, the racket becomes much smoother and penetrates the air better for maximum swing speed and power
- Yoke Control Technology – Allows you to master the power of your shots and control the impact. With a 485 cm² racket head, to increase string elasticity, and narrower open core with external reinforcements for greater rigidity. Added to a larger 390 mm² oversize shaft for maximum power.

TECNIFIBRE was founded in 1979 by the current CEO Thierry Maissant. Throughout its development, Tecnifibre has built itself a worldwide reputation in the tennis and squash market, releasing rackets, bags, strings, apparel and other accessories.
Tecnifibre started their squash dominance in 2009 with the Carboflex Basaltex. Initially the lightest racket in the range weighed 130 grams, with their star player at the time, Thierry Lincou, even opting for the 140 gram model.
Here’s a fun fact – Both Mohamed Elshorbagy and Nour El Shirbini used this racket as juniors, and in the same year they both won the Under 19 World Junior Championships. Nour was just 13 at the time !
