Make a statement with the limited-edition Film Noir Performance Tennis Racket Collection, featuring a design inspired by the low-key, black-and-white Film Noir era. Refined, elegant and finished in a stunning matte-black tone, the Noir Pro Staff 97 V14 is a precision-oriented racket ideal for advanced players. Slightly lighter than the Pro Staff RF 97, it still has a high weight that's concentrated in the handle. It features a denser string bed for the ultimate precision and feel. The double-braided fibers are arranged at 45-degree angles, allowing the frame to breathe more upon impact. This increases dwell time while maintaining the stability responsible for the classic Pro Staff feel.

Paradigm Bending

A carbon fiber construction strategically crafted to optimize the bending profile of the racket hoop and shaft. This construction shifts more flexibility into the shaft for an ideal blend of classic Pro Staff feel and precision without compromising modern power.

String Mapping

Strings sit closer together, yielding a denser string bed for excellent precision and feel.

Braid 45

Frame construction arranges the double braided fibers at 45 degree angles, allowing the braid to breathe more upon impact. The result is an enhanced pocketing feel combined with incredible stability.

Ergonomic End Cap

Ergonomic End Cap yields improved comfort and playability.
