The AXFORCE Cannon Pro steps up from the Cannon with a slimmer shaft and HDF shock absorption. It is head-heavy with a flexible shaft, giving strong but comfortable power, and suits intermediate to advanced attacking players in singles and doubles.
Key features
- HDF Shock Absorption: reduces vibration at impact for a more comfortable feel.
- Flexible 6.8 mm shaft: slimmer than the standard Cannon's 7 mm, for easier power and less air drag.
- Head-heavy balance: puts weight behind smashes.
- High-carbon construction with Dynamic Optimum Frame shape for stability and consistent contact.
