The Prince Ripstick 100 280 O3 is built for players seeking explosive power combined with a lightweight, effortless feel. Its superior maneuverability allows for massive ball speed and easy depth without the physical strain of a heavier frame.
The Ripstick 100 280 O3 is engineered for the modern baseline player who demands maximum ball speed and a fast-swinging experience. Weighing in at 9.9oz (280g) with a 13.4in / 1 pt HL (34cm) balance, this frame cuts through the air with zero resistance, allowing you to generate punishing pace and heavy rotation even on short-circuit swings.
The core of its performance lies in the distinctive O-Ports (O3 technology), which allow for unprecedented string movement. By removing traditional grommets, Prince creates a "trampoline effect" that turns the 100in² (645cm²) head into a power-launching platform. This setup provides a high level of forgiveness on off-center hits, while the open 16x18 string pattern ensures incredible snap-back for players who rely on heavy topspin to control the court.
To handle its immense energy, the frame utilizes a high-tech matrix of TeXtreme, Twaron, and Zylon. These materials provide the necessary structural backbone to prevent the 27-22mm beam from fluttering during heavy exchanges. Reinforced by the Anti-Torque System (ATS), the racquet remains rock-solid at impact, offering a crisp and connected feel. This technical package ensures that the Ripstick's raw power is always matched by a reliable, predictable response.
If you are looking for a responsive power weapon that feels light in the hand but hits heavy on the court, the Ripstick 100 280 O3 is your ultimate baseline companion.
