TECHNOLOGIES

The Blackout V2 incorporates a host of proprietary innovations:

A newly applied architecture and carbon fiber layup that enhances three key performance characteristics in the racquet: its power, stability, and responsiveness.

PU density foam fills the racquet head to reduce vibration and amplify feel.

Max beam height is strategically placed near the 5 and 7 o’clock positions to boost the flex and power. Added strength near the bridge maximizes power return and cuts energy loss.

40T Hi-Modulus Carbon Fibers placed at the 3 and 9 o’clock positions enlarge the sweet spot.

Liquid Crystal Fibers optimize flex and reduce vibration and shock in the handle.

Interchangeable butt-cap plates allow players to adjust weight and balance for customized performance.

WHO IT’S FOR

The Blackout V2 is designed for players at every level who want a larger head size frame with a balanced mix of power, comfort, spin, and drive. It’s ideal for those who crave easy power and heavy spin, as well as players looking for a more arm-friendly option. With its thicker, tapered beam design, it appeals to those who prefer added stability and punch, while also serving as a natural upgrade for existing Blackout V1 users.

WHERE TO BUY

The Blackout V2 is available at major online and local tennis retailers on September 22, 2025.
