Tecnifibre Carboflex 135 X-Top V2 Squash Racket

Tecnifibre unleashes swing speed!

The CARBOFLEX 135 X-TOP V2 135g TECNIFIBRE squash racket was designed to unleash the swing speed of every player. It is suitable for both regular and competitive players.

This is the best mix of power and maneuverability in the CARBOFLEX range. The frame is very powerful thanks to "JUMBO SHAFT" technology, a reinforced single-shaft design that ensures power comes directly from the racket. Combined with an optimized length, 1cm shorter than other CARBOFLEX rackets for less bulk and perfect maneuverability. Its 500cm² head size offers the perfect compromise between power and stability. It's also strung with Dynamix VP polyurethane multifilament, Tecnifibre's most responsive string. The CARBOFLEX 135 X-TOP V2 135g squash racket from TECNIFIBRE is ideal for advanced competitors and regular players looking for maximum power with enhanced maneuverability.

The CARBOFLEX X-TOP V2 range pushes the boundaries of innovation with patented X-TOP technology. We've removed the bumper (the protective layer on the racket head) for a completely new racket head construction focused on 100% performance. The bumper has been replaced by a combination of active fibers for maximum strength, speed, and playability. The bumper, more commonly made of plastic, is replaced by a mix of aramid fibers, the most impact-resistant material, and a PTFE treatment that provides a smooth surface to protect the frame from abrasion against the ground or walls. Without the bumper, the racket becomes much smoother and cuts through the air more effectively for maximum swing speed and power. With plastic replaced by a more robust material, there are more fibers in the racket for increased responsiveness, reduced vibration, and greater comfort.

The racket's lines were designed using the "Airshaft" section for enhanced aerodynamics and improved acceleration. The monoshaft construction is reinforced on both sides by "X-Arms" tendons to limit racket flex and provide stability and precision at impact. To increase spin potential and forgiveness on off-center hits, the CARBOFLEX 135 X-TOP V2 135g TECNIFIBRE squash racket incorporates "Extended String Holes" technology: 12 grommets at specific points on the frame (3 o'clock, 9 o'clock, and 12 o'clock) have been enlarged to allow the strings to breathe and promote their elasticity.

The CARBOFLEX X-TOP V2 range is played on the Tour by squash legends Mohamed el Shorbagy, Nour el Sherbini, Nouran Gohar, and many others at the top of the world rankings. These legends endorse and actively participate in the development and technical evolution of our products.

The TECNIFIBRE brand's mission is to unleash the potential of every player by offering products that combine high performance and unique elegance, all developed through the TECNILAB laboratory using the logic: Identify, Quantify, Solve.

In squash, players are always trying to improve their speed of execution because the ball arrives quickly and more than half of the shots (58%) are played in the corners with little space.

So how can we improve performance in such small spaces?

The answer: swing speed!

This is what TECNIFIBRE's TecniLab has been working on. Given the constraints of time and space, the goal is to enable players to generate power by accelerating their rackets.

We tested hundreds of players in this fundamental situation. And it turns out that there are differences in acceleration between top players and club players: the better the player, the faster their swing.

Based on this data, we have developed the new CARBOFLEX X-TOP V2 squash racket range to increase racket acceleration for all categories of players.

• CARBOFLEX 120 - Never before has a Carboflex been so light. Within the range, the  CARBOFLEX 120 X-TOP V2  represents a revolution, offering unparalleled maneuverability and acceleration in small spaces for maximum power. Weighing 120g, with a 500cm² head size and Dynamix VP multifilament strings, it is designed for competitive and regular players seeking ultimate performance.

• X-TOP TECHNOLOGY - The CARBOFLEX X-TOP V2 range redefines innovation with patented X-TOP technology. By replacing the traditional bumper with a combination of active fibers, we have created an entirely new racket head offering maximum performance. The ultra-impact-resistant aramid fibers and PTFE treatment provide increased abrasion protection while improving glide. Without a bumper, the racket becomes smoother, penetrates the air better, and offers increased swing speed and power, while reducing vibrations for optimal comfort.
