Joola's new line of infinity rackets is designed to take your everyday game to the next level. The edge racket, the second in the series, is assembled with pips-in driver 42 rubber on both sides with a sponge thickness of 2.2mm, providing more spin for offensive players who attack with higher speeds. As a faster racket, it is well suited for sport-level players who have some trained stroke technique and playing strategy. The Joola infinity edge paddle's carbon blade is a combination of 5-ply wood and 2-ply carbon to make a 5.7mm thick 7-ply blade. The wood is a combination of hinoki, koto, ayous woods, and carbon. Hinoki is a delicate and dynamic wood fit for all styles of gameplay. Native to central Japan, it is used as the outer plies of composite blades because it creates more control and increased feedback. It undergoes a meticulous preparation process where trees reaching 300+ years of age are hand-selected and then cured for 1-3 years before manufacturing. Koto wood has a diffuse-porous end grain, which makes the wood nimble and stiffer allowing the player to produce faster blocks and rapid counters. Ayous wood is lightweight, firm, and elastic which is why it is the heart of many all-around blades. Ayous is quintessential for players who want to keep the ball in play to wear out their opponents. Carbon fiber is forged from carbon atoms that are formed into fibers about 5-10 mm in diameter. The 2-ply of carbon reinforces the blade and reduces vibrations while enlarging the 'sweet spot,' for a stronger attack. With the use of hinoki as the outer ply, koto as an inner ply, and bayous as the core, the racket gives phenomenal feedback while the carbon Para-aramid synthetic fiber, as the innermost ply, regulates powerful top spins.
