GAMMA Ships RZR Racquet Line
February 14, 2012
Pittsburgh, PA — Gamma Sports (GAMMA) is now shipping the new GAMMA RZR racquet line (pronounced “razor”), quite possibly the fastest racquets on the market.
GAMMA’s Concept Design Team, Black Racquet Labs, researched and developed the RZR racquet line featuring RZR Advanced Aerodynamics. RZR Advanced Aerodynamics allows the RZR to minimize drag making it fast on any shot from any angle. Players of all ability levels can now achieve higher racquet head speeds and generate more spin, pace and depth on every shot.
RZR Advanced Aerodynamics is the set of unique design characteristics that allow each RZR racquet to channel and displace air allowing more acceleration and speed in the natural swing.
Materials and Processing are key to maintaining optimal performance and feel for the RZR frames without sacrificing aerodynamic effectiveness.
MCARBON — A composite matrix that increases strength throughout the RZR frame. The result is an optimal combination of stiffness and flexibility that offers maximum power transfer on all shots.
Minimized Voids — RZR frames are made using a process that removes entrapped air from the composite matrix to minimize voids between the fiber layers that can fatigue the structure. Minimizing voids result in maximum frame durability and a solid, comfortable feel over the life of the racquet.
Multi-Directional Layering — Carbon sheets are layered in pre-calculated directions to precisely control the fiber angle in each area of the RZR frame. This ensures optimum strength and stiffness throughout the racquet.
RZR Pricing & Availability
RZR racquets are currently shipping from tennis distributors. Select tennis specialty shops in the U.S. are taking pre-orders now and will have RZR racquets available March 1, 2012.
