Introducing the Fire 255! As the lightest member of the Fire family, this racket is perfect for beginners or anyone who craves maximum maneuverability. At only 269 grams strung, the Fire 255 glides through contact with remarkable ease, enabling novice players to position the racquet effectively and make clean contact with the ball. Thanks to its whippy acceleration and open 16x19 string pattern and, spin comes very easy. The Fire also gives you the benefit of a stiff and powerful beam construction, resulting in a lively and solid feel across the entire string bed (think power and stability). Technologies include Tecnifibre's X-Damp dampening system, which couples a steel mass in the butt cap with elastomer supports to filter out harsh vibrations, giving it a softer more comfortable feel than many of its competitors. The Fire also benefits from Tecnifibre's IsoFlex System, which creates a more uniform feel across the string bed, reducing shock and power loss on off-center hits. Ultimately, this is the perfect entry point for those looking to learn the mechanics of power and spin.
