Star Vie Drax Soft 12K

The Drax Soft 2025 Star Vie is a racket designed for intermediate players looking for a versatile racket with a perfect combination of control, power and manageability. This model features key innovations such as the use of the new 12K fiber and Soft 30 rubber , which provide greater flexibility, comfort and excellent ball output. The racket is created with a teardrop-shaped mold that optimizes balance towards the tip to maximize performance on each shot. This racket has a diamond head, a power balance, a carbon frame faced in 12K carbon, a soft EVA core, and a textured surface. A diamond head carries its weight furthest from the handle of the three common shapes, which increases swing weight and concentrates power at the cost of a smaller, less centred sweet spot; pairing that with a power balance pushes further in the same direction. The soft core is the one component here that works against pure stiffness, absorbing more of the impact than a hard core would and giving some cushioning back to an otherwise power-focused build. Star Vie rates it advanced, made in Spain. This suits a player with a reliable, centred swing who wants maximum pace, and is a less forgiving choice for someone still working on consistent contact.
