SPRING SPONGE X

Spring Sponge X with greater flexibility and more bounce

Spring Sponge applied to TENERGY is a revolutionary sponge that produces both increased flexibility and high elasticity.
The fact that most of the world’s top players use TENERGY series proves the high performance produced by Spring Sponge.

 Spring Sponge combining high levels of flexibility and high elasticity

A high sponge compression flexibility is required to create a high degree of spin combined with stability.In addition, the sponge must have elasticity to generate power.
Softer sponge can easily respond but the impetus created is minimal. Conversely, harder sponge can enhance elasticity but it is more difficult to hold the ball as the flexibility is smaller.
Spring Sponge is revolutionary in terms of successfully combining flexibility and high elasticity.

Following an extensive nine year research programme, Spring Sponge X was developed in order to generate more power.
It responds by 14%, the impact resilience enhanced 3% compared to the current Spring Sponge;
the result is a big difference in the level of power produced. Spring Sponge X is the key
to bringing high performance to DIGNICS 05.

Applying a sponge of 40 degrees in hardness in quest of more power

As a result of pursuing more power, the hardness degree of the sponge adopted was 40. It is 4 degrees harder than the Spring Sponge applied to TENERGY 05. However, thanks to the improved flexibility level, you gain a softer feeling for the value. Also, it is lighter than the current by about 3% compared to the Spring Sponge of the same hardness and weight.(*) Therefore, ease of use is secured as the racket does not become too heavy, even it is attached on both sides of a blade. A player who has less muscle can also use it without problem.

(*) A harder sponge is applied to DIGNICS 05 compared to TENERGY 05, so the weight is almost the same. In terms of hardness DIGNICS 05 has 40 degrees, TENERGY 05 has 36 degrees.

Spring Sponge X dyed in Rising Red

Spring Sponge X is the advanced version of Spring Sponge. The name was chosen so that it can be recognised easily as part of a series; the letter “X” represents

the trajectory the ball traces after bouncing on the rubber and the ease of compression, the very feature of the sponge, as well as the image of good bounce.

The elegant deep red color of the sponge was named as “Rising Red” from the image of play close to the table stroking the “rising” of the ball after bounce.
