Description

The TECNIFIBRE FIRE 285 tennis racket has been designed to deliver power and comfort thanks to unique technology: X-DAMP.

In the FIRE range, this offers the right compromise between power and manoeuvrability, suitable for competitors and club players.

Robust frame ergonomics and a 16x19 open string pattern to generate maximum power. Weighing in at 285 g, it’s a good compromise between manoeuvrability and inertia. A clever choice for delivering winning shots and steering the point.

To boost power, all of the rackets’ frames have been designed with rigid ergonomics so that they stay firm on impact for maximum energy return. But the more rigid the frame, the more vibrations it produces - which can be harmful for players’ arms. Tecnifibre’s unique solution: X-Damp, the technology developed with TecniLab, to reduce vibrations and provide maximum comfort.
How does it work? A steel part is inserted in an elastomer pocket in the handle which offsets the force each time the ball is hit. The result: arm-straining vibrations are reduced by 36%, causing less fatigue.

Compared to its predecessor, the new FIRE 285 tennis racket is a step up in performance!

Firstly, the ergonomics of the frame sections have been revised to make them more square-shaped and 5% thinner, for greater stability and power control.

The weight distribution has also been modified to reflect modern tennis trends. The weight has been redistributed from the edges towards the centre of the frame to reduce the swing weight and facilitate acceleration off the racket head.

Maximum power and handling make this the ideal racket for the demands of the modern tennis player!

To take performance even further, the shape of the handle has been refined. The aim is to get a better feel for the edges to make it easier to change grip.

All in all, the TECNIFIBRE FIRE 285 645 cm² tennis racket is the ideal product for modern tennis, powerful with unique comfort technology and very easy handling.

What head size should I choose?

Larger heads of 105 square inches and up give a bigger sweet spot and more free power, which suits improvers and anyone who does not generate their own pace. Mid-size heads around 95 to 100 square inches give more control and a cleaner feel, but you have to swing properly to get anything out of them. Most club players sit between 98 and 105.

Does racket weight matter more than head size?

They matter in different ways. Weight determines stability: a heavier frame holds its line against a hard ball and transmits less shock to the arm, while a lighter one is easier to swing but gets pushed around. Head size determines forgiveness. A light racket with a big head is the most beginner-friendly combination; a heavy racket with a small head is the least.

What is racket balance and which should I pick?

Balance is where the weight sits along the frame. Head heavy rackets are usually lighter overall and add power for players with shorter swings. Head light rackets are usually heavier overall and suit players who generate their own pace and want manoeuvrability at the net. Even balance is the safe middle.

Should I buy a strung or unstrung racket?

Frames sold unstrung are aimed at players who want a specific string and tension, and the cost of stringing needs adding. Strung rackets come ready to play with a factory string that is fine to start with. If you do not yet know what string you like, buy strung.

How often should a tennis racket be restrung?

The old guideline is to restring as many times per year as you play per week. Strings lose tension from the moment they go in, whether you play or not, so a racket strung two years ago is well past its best even if nothing has broken. If you are breaking strings regularly, a polyester will last longer.

When does a junior move up to an adult racket?

Junior frames are sized by length, not age. Most players move to a 27 inch adult frame at around 11 or 12, but the test is whether they can swing the racket through the ball without the head dropping. Moving up too early builds bad habits that take longer to undo than waiting.
