FAQs

Is this racket suitable for complete beginners?

Yes, the Karakal FF 160 2.1's lightweight design and user-friendly characteristics make it an excellent choice for beginners looking for a versatile racket.

What is the weight of the racket when strung?

The racket is listed at 160g unstrung. The strung weight will be slightly higher due to the strings, but it remains an ultra-lightweight racket.

Can I replace the strings on this racket?

Yes, the racket can be re-strung. It is recommended to consult a professional stringer for optimal tension and pattern application based on your playing style.

How does the Fast Fibre Graphite help my game?

Fast Fibre Graphite allows the racket frame to recover its shape faster after impact, leading to increased power and reduced effort for your shots.

Does the Inner Gel System significantly reduce vibration?

Yes, the Inner Gel System is specifically designed to dampen vibrations, providing a more comfortable feel and reducing stress on your arm, wrist, and elbow.

What is the string pattern?

The racket features a 14x20 string pattern.

Does it come with a protective cover?

Troubleshooting

Racket feels unstable during powerful shots.

Consider adding a small amount of lead tape to the head of the racket to increase swing weight and stability. Ensure the grip is secure.

Reduced power or control after extended use.

The strings may have lost tension. It is recommended to have the racket re-strung by a professional when performance decreases.

Vibrations felt excessively on impact.

Ensure the Inner Gel System is functioning correctly. If vibrations persist, check string tension. For extreme sensitivity, consider a vibration dampener, though the Inner Gel System is designed to minimize this.

Grip feels slippery.

Clean the existing grip with a damp cloth and allow it to dry completely. If the grip is worn, replace it with a new Karakal PU Super Grip or similar.
