Squash racket Tecnifibre Carboflex NEO 120

Tecnifibre Carboflex NEO 120 – the lightest model in the NEO series for maximum swing speed, exceptional maneuverability, and fast attacking play

Tecnifibre Carboflex NEO 120 is the lightest model of the new generation Carboflex and is designed for players who primarily want maximum swing speed and exceptionally fast maneuverability.

The frame weighs only 120 g, which is 5 g less than the Carboflex NEO 125 model. The lower mass enables even quicker racket preparation, easier reactions in tight spaces, and very rapid head acceleration during attacking shots. This is especially important in squash, where a large part of the game takes place in corners and along walls, where players often do not have enough space for a long swing.

The main novelty is the X-TOP NEO technology. Tecnifibre has redesigned the plastic parts and grommets around the head and reduced the amount of material, especially at the 12 o’clock position. About 2–3 g of plastic were removed from the upper part of the frame. Less mass at the top means faster head acceleration and even better maneuverability. The saved mass is redistributed toward the middle of the racquet, where the new HEART TECH design is located. The shaft is about 3% thicker and more rounded, which increases stability, responsiveness, and potential for power generation.

Carboflex NEO 120 thus, despite very low weight, not only acts as a fast racquet but also provides enough energy for aggressive play. The head size of 500 cm² represents a good balance between power, stability, and tolerance for shots off-center.

X-TOP for a faster and more resistant frame top

The Carboflex series also uses the patented X-TOP technology, in which the classic plastic bumper at the top of the racquet is replaced by a combination of active fibers. Aramid fibers are used, which increase impact resistance, together with PTFE treatment, which helps reduce wear when contacting the floor or walls. Since there are fewer plastic parts at the top of the frame, the racquet is also more aerodynamic, further contributing to swing speed.

More spin and tolerance with Extended String Hole

The Carboflex NEO 120 uses the Extended String Hole technology. In 12 selected positions at 3, 9, and 12 o’clock, the string holes are enlarged. The strings thus have a bit more space to move and can respond more freely on impact.

This helps with:

• creating additional spin,
• greater elasticity of the string bed,
• better tolerance on off-center hits,
• more comfortable feel on contact with the ball.

The racquet comes factory-tensioned with Tecnifibre Dynamix VP, a responsive polyurethane multifilament string for squash.
