SHEET

Top sheet good at holding the ball with strengthened resistance
to abrasion on the surface

The top sheet has also made progresses, in parallel with the sponge, to impart spin on the ball with more ease and to take advantage of the feature of the new sponge. It holds the ball more on the surface thanks to its unique composition which enhances flexibility without losing elasticity. Furthermore, its resistance to abrasion has been successfully doubled (*) by using technology and past experience.

The chances of creating an arc are enhanced; a stable and powerful stroke is made possible by combining the Spring Sponge X with the top sheet. It is excellent at holding the ball; especially in the strokes which require a delicate touch, the feature is demonstrated in counter attacking play and when using the Chiquita.

The top sheet catches the ball with its enhanced holding ability, while the more flexible Spring Sponge X compresses to a large amount.

Spring Sponge X with advanced elasticity supports the top sheet as it recovers from compression with more energy.

Therefore, the stroke becomes more powerful with more chance to travel in an arc.

The pimple shape selected from among more than 200 samples

The pimples of “development code No.05” were adopted, the same pimple shape as TENERGY 05.
That was the conclusion, after carefully reviewing more than as many as 200 pimple shapes verified during the development process
of the TENERGY series, was to find the one which is best suitable for Spring Sponge X. The pimple shape of the “code No.05” is well known for its excellence to impart spin on the ball; it was proven that the pimples can demonstrate this feature even applied to Spring Sponge X.
