The Launch Pad Racquets are the newest in the E-Force line of products. The power in this line comes from increased stringbed deflection - the "bend" in the strings caused by impact with the ball. Launch Pad Technology is the unsurpassed power achieved by a 38.5% increase in stringbed deflection - 38.5% more deflection than in any previous racquet (including E-Force)!Launch Pad is made possible by combining the elimination of deflection - constraining cross-strings with improved MLS 32.5" Maximum LongString Technology and the New Wishbone Frame. New Wishbone Frame: Launch Pad stringbed deflection and power are increased by a 3-part fin system that stiffens the frame and allows the elimination of deflection-constraining cross-strings. Located in the throat, the fins also improve control and durability by eliminating twisting and torque. Only E-Force utilizes the entire racquet frame to create maximum string length and maximum stringbed deflection for maximum power. The improved 22.0" longString technology features center mains which are now 3/4" longer. They extend from the outside of the top of the frame unrestricted through new 2.54 sq. cm. Monster String Holes and run through the entire length of the handle. The ten center mains are now at least 6.5" longer than in competitor racquets. They add at least 57 extra inches of combined length - an increase of at least 39% for crushing power. New 10.5" Cross-String Technology creates the game's longest cross-strings by extending strings through new Monster String Holes and anchoring them at the outside edges of the frame. Strings do not touch interior string holes and move unrestricted in free space. This provides increased stringbed deflection and 8 extra inches of cross-string power. Tri-Carbon Frame: This is an optimum blend of 3 higher-stiffness minimum-weight carbons. It increases stiffness without adding weight, adds power and durability. Total-Carbon Head: Streamlining the bumper and eliminating paint allow non-structural materials to be replaced by 20% more carbon. The result is additional stiffness, durability and increased power. 10 NEW Super Fiber Alignment Technology (F.A.T.) Zones: This technology straightens the fibers in curved and high-stress areas. It stiffens and strengthens the head of the frame and adds power. New Monster String Holes provide Extra-large 2.54 sq. cm. holes (6 times larger than standard holes or slots) allow both main and cross-strings to be anchored on the outside of the frame. New Full-Motion String Technology allows Center mains and crosses to not touch the frame's inside edge. They move unrestricted in free space, making both main and cross-strings effectively longer. Stringbed deflection and power are increased, and the stringbed is livelier. New By-Pass Stringing System has the Mainstrings skip two string holes before re-entering racquet frame. The ball never strikes two directly connected center mainstring segments. Mainstrings move independently. The result is livelier ball response and longer string life. New Zero Richter Tubes give you No more earthquake warnings! Flexible tubes inside the Judgement handle individually dampen 48" of mainstring to create solid feel and eliminate vibration. Color-coded tubes simplify stringing LongString racquets. Features: - Launch Pad Technology

The evolution of racquet frames...from teardrop to quadraform to midsize and oversize...resulted in longer mainstrings and longer cross-strings. This created tremendous increases in power. Why? It's the same principle as the bow and arrow. For an equal amount of effort, longer strings create greater stringbed deflection, allowing the string/frame system to store more energy. The result is a more powerful shot when the energy is released. E-Force LongString Technology allows maximum stringbed deflection and power by extending the mainstrings and cross-strings in free space to the outside edges of the entire racquet frame. That's why LongString racquets are the most powerful ever made.
