A design aspect that intrigued me, was something that i have been using every since i was a kid. It varied through out the years, as it improved with technology, it is my choice of weapon when i step onto that court. When i'm that mode there's only four things that are on my mind at the time: the ball, the net, the opponent, and of course my racket.
Through out the years of me playing the sport of tennis, i had changed the type of rackets i had used several times, all based on the design of the racket and how it has improved. It starts with simply new technology and material the racket is made. An example would be how the Prince o3 series came out and introduced a whole new line of racket that allowed the player to have a faster swing. It altered the racket by making the string wholes bigger which gave it more aerodynamics as the racket is being swung. The company head also introduced the technology of making their racket out of titanium and then reintroduced it and came out with a liquid metal series racket.
What is capturing about racket designs is there are so many ways to go about it. We can see that the looks of the racket also matters, with every new racket comes a new paint job over it. We see different type of designs that cover the rackets, with a variation of colors, which follows the theme of the racket. The K Factor series by Wilson we see a color designs of mainly red and black for the main rackets. Wilson just released their new line call BLX which has colors of black and orange. The rackets all redesigned with different looks, which is a distinguishable trait towards the sale of the rackets.
