Bolt 100 v2
Bolt tennis racquets have been around for a few years and we have reported on them in the past, however, the new V2 of the Bolt racquet lineup is very impressive!
If you are not at all familiar with the Bolt technology it is the “Zip Strip” that makes them unique. The “Zip Strip” is a carbon fiber component that looks like a miniature tennis racquet cross-section that fits into the sides and top that actually do the “bending” during string and racquet impact!
This “bending” can mitigate harshness associated with very stiff strings or a very stiff racquet!
Before we look at the specifications you can visit the Bolt site for more information.
