Prince Sports unveils TeXtreme reinforced squash racquets

March 30, 2016 - United States Of America

Prince Global Sports, New Jersey’s leading racquet sports company, has unveiled a completely new line of squash racquets, with five of the new models incorporating groundbreaking TeXtreme technology into the head of the racquet.

TeXtreme is an innovative, light and ultra-strong carbon fibre material with superior stability that delivers increased power and greater precision control for squash players.

TeXtreme is based on spreading tows (yarns) into tapes that are weaved into a fabric. The fabric produced is much thinner than conventional carbon fibre fabrics, with straighter fibres that optimise and strengthen the composite while delivering lighter weight.

Positioned in the upper hoop of the racquet at the 10 and 2 o’clock positions, TeXtreme reduces racquet head frame deformation. This results in superior torsional stability upon impact, creating a larger, sweet spot for unparalleled power, response, and accuracy for all squash players, according to a press release.

Jon Ballardie, VP of global squash at Prince Global Sports said, “Prince is excited about the development of the new TeXtreme collection. We’re confident this line of racquets will help us to continue not only meeting the needs of every squash player at every level, but more importantly helping all players play better squash. Our new TeXtreme collection is further proof of our ongoing commitment to innovation.”

Prince CEO Mike Ballardie said, “The TeXtreme line of racquets is another example of the Prince commitment to providing squash players around the world with the best technology to improve performance.” (GK)
