Tecnifibre Carboflex Airshaft 135 Squash Racket
The Tecnifibre Carboflex Airshaft 135 is a performance squash racket built for intermediate to advanced players. It is designed for competitive club matches and tournament play on standard indoor squash courts. If you want a powerful frame that still gives you control under pressure, this model sits at the top end of the Carboflex range for output.
At 135 grams with a 500 cm² head size, it is the most powerful option in the series. It rewards strong swings and confident shot making.
Power with controlled response
The head size increases the effective hitting area, giving you more margin on attacking drives and volleys. The even balance at 35.0 cm keeps the racket stable through contact, so it does not feel overly head heavy when defending in tight rallies.
AirShaft Section technology reshapes the frame to reduce drag and improve acceleration. In real match play, that means quicker racket speed when reacting to fast drops or countering hard length.
X Arms technology reinforces the frame structure for added stability and strength. On off centre hits, the racket holds its shape well, helping maintain directional control during high pace exchanges.
It comes pre strung with Dynamix V.P 1.25 in a 14 x 18 string pattern. This setup enhances power while still offering touch for drops and boasts near the front wall.
