The FX 700 from Dunlop dials it up with easy power and forgiving feel for anyone with a short to medium length of swing or those who prefer a larger head-size for a big sweet spot.
The headsize at 107 square inches favours power generation and forgiving feel with its large sweet spot. Coupled with the headsize, the open string pattern has a lively feel with easier access to spin. The weight, being a light racquet, should prove very easy to maneuver for comfortable serves, quick net-play and fast adjustments in the heat of a point. Its slight head-light balance (unstrung) provides a mostly balanced frame-feel that will further enhance its maneuverability and should feel lighter on the wrist. The beam thickness varies along the frame providing optimized power and comfort characteristics.
Enhancing the above physical characteristics of the frame are the core technologies Dunlop has implemented into the materials that make up the racquet. Power Boost increases string movement improving power response. Flex Touch Resin enhances comfort and vibration dampening properties. Sonic Core reduces impact shock and frame vibrations. Power Grid String Tech optimizes the string layout for a larger than usual sweet spot with enhanced spin potential.
Combined with the core technologies, the FX 700 is a racquet built to assist the player in generating pace and hitting the sweet spot with fantastic comfort while striking the ball. This racquet should prove popular among players who are looking for their racquet to do some of the work for them.
