SWING STYLE GUIDE Every player is different so selecting the right racket can sometimes be difficult. With Dunlop’s new F, M and S series the selection process is made easier. Step 1: Simply select the series which suits your swing style: Full/Fast, Medium/Moderate or Short/Slow. Step 2: Decide if you want your racket to give more power, more control or a mix of the two. Step 3: Choose your number. Low numbers = control, High numbers = power.
The new Biomimetic F Series rackets are designed for players with aggressive
full/fast swing styles who are looking for ultimate control from their racket.
The F Series rackets offer the perfect balance of speed and precision.
The Biomimetic M Series rackets are designed for players with medium/moderate
swing styles. The M Series rackets are built for players looking for control with added power, spin and maneuverability.
Dunlop is a truly international sporting brand with a great heritage of innovation
and achievement. We have been pioneers in racket technology through the ages
starting with the introduction of the first multi-ply wooden racket, the legendary Maxply Fort, in 1932, through to the award winning and ground breaking Max 200G
which was the first injection moulded graphite racket introduced in 1982.
2011 we employed a truly unique

BIOMIMETIC 3.0 The 3.0 range is designed for players of all swing styles looking for a great balance of power and control. The fully re-engineered frame shape of the 3.0 range features a 15% rounder more eliptical head shape than the previous 300 model to enlarge the sweet spot of the racket. Hybrid Cross Section: Hybrid power properties of an oval section in the head with the stability and comfort of a box section in the shaft portion of the racket helps to provide more power than previous models without loss of control.
Cx Grommets: Pocketed grommets and a more aerodynamic cross section in the racket hoop make the 3.0 range more aerodynamic than previous models helping to increase racket head speed.

BIOMIMETIC 8.0 The S8.0 Lite is a brand new oversize racket for 2013 which is designed for players with shorter swings. Engineered to deliver high levels of power coupled with high levels of comfort, the S8.0 Lite is fully loaded with technology to deliver unrivalled power and comfort.
Apex predators are highly evolved for power and precision. Taking inspiration from their anatomical bone structure Dunlop has inverted the structural form of the throat in 3 key areas to minimise torsional deflection for increased precision and control of off centre shots. = ENHANCED CONTROL AND PRECISION
Greater string movement + reduced friction + decreased mass = greater power Inspired by the sandfish skink, a lizard that can swim through sand, Dunlop’s unique grommet technology fuses microscopic ridges and a near frictionless high strength polymer with a cartilage inspired elastomer that provides 3Dimensional string movement for superior penetrative power.
