Who this racket is for
The Black Crown Patron Kore targets advanced players with consolidated technique who want more performance without yet moving to a pure competition racket. Its teardrop shape shifts the sweet spot slightly upwards, striking a balance between control and power. The medium balance keeps a balanced behaviour between baseline shots and volleys. The hard build favours explosive shots, especially bandeja and smash, but demands more technique. Its 355-370g weight range places it in the medium-weight group, the most common among amateur players.
