Updated with a new beam design, the ProKennex Ki 5 continues its reign as one of the most arm-friendly player’s rackets available. As with previous generations, the Ki 5 (295g) delivers controllable power and unparalleled comfort to intermediate players. This racket will also tempt the advanced ball striker who wants raw speed without having to sacrifice stability. For 2022, ProKennex modernizes the beam with a trapezoidal throat design, resulting in a racket that feels more stable through impact and transfers greater power to the ball. This racket's defining feature is Kinetic Technology, which places movable mass around the hoop to deliver the best arm protection available. Other technologies include a Comfort Cap, which adds Kinetic technology to the butt cap to attenuate residual vibrations. This Ki 5 also benefits from a Spiral Tech Carbon layup which delivers cleaner ball feedback along with less frame vibration on off-center impact. Ultimately, this impressive update is an obvious option for any player who wants the advantages of a modern player's racket minus the discomfort that typically plagues the breed.
