Designed by Adidas, it blends Metalbone engineering with accessible performance, making it ideal for competitive club players and advanced intermediates.
OCTAGONAL STRUCTURE
An octagonal carbon tubular frame reduces torsion on impact, improving shot precision and directional control.
LOW POLY DESIGN
The polyhedral geometry in the frame and core increases stiffness, helping maintain consistency and power under pressure.
