Calton Kinesis X90

The Carlton Kinesis X90 has an optimetric head shape delivering great airspeed and control. It is head heavy balanced for more power, stability and spin, and offers the Japanese HM Carbon construction resulting in excellent response and stability. The racket weighs 86g (3.0oz) and utilises the Bi Axial Dynamics frame profile. The Vortex Geometry increases the racket head speed and manoeuvrability, whereas the Ultra-lite Cap ensures enhanced playability. The X90 is equipped with the Xtreme Tension frame thanks to which the frame can accommodate 11% higher string tensions compared with conventional rackets. In addition, it features the Micro Grommet System to provide more touch and control.

Features

• Kinesis - 90 degree twists at 2, 5, 7 and 10 o'clock to reduce weight and acts to increase swing speed witht the Vortex Geometry.
• Vortex Geometry - A new design of the racket head to help improve the aerodynamics of the racket throughout the whole swing. Most rackets are designed with excellent aerodynamics in a single plane, the Vortex System is designed to have excellent speed through a whole rotation.
• Circometric - An oval shaped head that provides better aerodynamics than an isometric head allowing faster swing speeds. The more compact hitting area gives extra feel and touch on the shuttle.
• Xtreme Tension Frame - Attention to detail and high quality materials ensure that Carlton rackets are safe to be strung at higher tensions.
• Micro Grommet System - Smaller tapered edge grommets that sit in a groove in the frame reduce aerodynamic drag by allowing the string to sit closer to the frame.
• Pro V12 Grommets - Small flexible grommets that allow greater string movement to increase the power the centre crosses can generate.
• Japanese HM Carbon - A Hi Modulus top of the range carbon that is a consistent high quality providing durability and stability.
• Ultra-Lite Cap - A re-design of the traditional cap to reduce the racket weight as much as possible. The new cap is perforated to reduce its weight by 28%.
• The racket comes strung in Carlton Xelerate X67. The tension range for this racket is 18-28lbs.
