An intermediate all-rounder for players preferring a balanced approach to the game, the Carlton Powerblade EX 400 is club badminton racket that fuses excellent striking speed and enhanced control to create a cohesive playing experience. The racquet introduces a Japanese hot melt graphite construction to improve the responsiveness and strength, whereas the head light balance adds more manoeuvrability and agility to each stroke. Furthermore, the isometric head shape helps with establishing proper consistency of each stroke due to a larger sweet-spot. Also, the racket allows for a stiffer stringbed to ensure more control thanks to the Xtreme Tension Frame technology. The Powerblade EX 400 is strung with a multifilament string and takes advantage of the Pro V12 Grommets which helps produce more power with less effort. The racquet is supplied with a full-length cover for optimal safety.
