TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
Softfeel technology
Thin layers of balsa (6.3% of main components) sandwiched between the carbon fibres reduce the vibration peak and duration at impact.
This significantly decreases frame vibration (by about 30%) and quickly dampens them, in comparison with the same racket without Softfeel technology.
Playing comfort
We paid particular attention to the racket's comfort by equipping it with multi-filament stringing (1.3 mm gauge) as standard. This provides an excellent feel while hitting (both comfort and power) and improved stringing robustness over time (tension loss)
In addition, the standard Ultra Comfort grip feels great in your hand with its soft handle.
Weight (unstrung racket)
280 g.
Weight: The weight is measured in grams. Just like balance point and length, the weight impacts a racket's swing weight and therefore its manoeuvrability, stability and ability to transfer energy to the ball (power). The heavier the racket, the more power you'll get, but the harder it will be to handle. The lighter the racket, the easier it will be to handle, but the trade-off is less power.
Balance (unstrung racket)
33 cm
Balance: This is the racket balance point, measured in centimetres from the bottom of the shaft. The higher the number (head heavy), the more powerful and stable upon impact the racket will be. However, it will also be harder to manoeuvre. The smaller the number (grip biased or handle heavy), the easier the racket will be to handle but you'll have less power and stability.
Head size
690 cm²
Head size: This is the surface area of the racket head size measured in squared centimetres. It has an impact on the racket's forgiveness and power. The larger the head size, the more powerful and forgiving it is, but the downside is less control. The smaller the head size, the more control you'll get, but you'll have to sacrifice power and forgiveness.
Swingweight (unstrung racket)
SW = 275
Swingweight: This indicates how easy a racket is to handle and its ability to transfer energy to the ball (power). The higher the swingweight, the more powerful the racket, but also the harder it will be to handle. Conversely, the lower the swingweight, the easier the racket will be to handle, but the trade-off is less power. The swingweight is derived from a combination of the racket weight, balance and length.
Visible carbon
We have removed the black paint from this racket (also eliminating a cooking cycle of around 2 hours) and let reflections of carbon show, giving it a slightly raw appearance.
Stringing:
16 x 19
String pattern: This is the number of mains (vertical strings) x the number of crosses (horizontal strings). The more strings the pattern has, the more "closed" it is; the fewer it has, the more "open" it is. A more closed string pattern offers a greater feeling of control, but less power and spin. A more open string pattern provides more power and spin, but less control.
RA
65 Ra
Ra: Defines the racket's stiffness, meaning how much it will bend on impact with the ball. The stiffer the racket (the higher the Ra), the less it bends. The energy lost on impact is minimised and returned to the ball via the strings. Generally, a stiffer racket offers greater power.

TESTS AND WARRANTY
Test product
This Artengo Softfeel 107 racket was tested for hundreds of hours by club players. It was particularly popular for being very forgiving, comfortable, and having a good balance of manoeuvrability and power.The vibration dampening of the Softfeel technology was studied, observed and measured in the lab with standardised tests involving contact between the ball and the racket's stringing.
