The Bourne Summum Prisma Soft is an advanced level blade with a medium-high balance that stands out for its striking design, its aerodynamics and its performance on the court.
MATERIALS
The Bourne Summum Prisma Soft is made using a bidirectional carbon tubular. The core is made of 38mm low-hardness SOFTCOLOR CORE EVA rubber, and is laminated through layers of carbon and fiberglass fabric, and reinforced with carbon fiber. All fabrics are impregnated with Varlion's exclusive VAR-FLEX epoxy resin, and covered with a layer of titanium dioxide.
SHAPE
This blade is made with the BOURNE shape, a hybrid that is born from the fusion of the traditional diamond (power blades) and teardrop (balanced blades) shapes. It is an exclusive form of Varlion that adds a control point to the offensive blades, giving us 60% power and 40% control.
AERODYNAMIC DRILLING
According to studies carried out in fluid software for aerodynamic studies, it has been shown that drilling the center of the blade generates turbulence, which is why the Bourne Summum Prisma Soft has a novel drilling system known as Aerodynamic Drilling.
Thanks to this technology we achieve more resistance in the core and greater homogeneity in the hits, which generates an increase in the sweet spot of the blade.
SUMMUM TECHNOLOGY
The Summum technology provides three factors that improve the performance of the blade:
- Longer handle than usual: Normally the blades have a 12.5cm handle, but the Summum blades have a 14cm grip, which provides us with a more comfortable and professional grip and extra comfort for players who perform the two-handed backhand.
- A 1 cm longer hitting surface: the largest hitting surface in a professional blade. Thanks to the expansion of the core we get much more control and responsiveness in the game.
- Wings Diffuser Technology: it's a diffuser aerodynamically improved that provides more maneuverability and precision.
PRISMA FRAME AND PROTECTOR
The Prisma frame arises to avoid the damage we cause to the blade by hitting it with the wall or glass. Thanks to its Prisma shape, this frame reduces the contact surface by up to 90% and also improves air resistance by 10%, providing greater maneuverability and acceleration during impacts.
For greater safety, the Bourne Summum Prisma Soft includes an adhesive protector which adapts perfectly to this very special framework.
SLICE TEXTURE
Slice is the name given to the most effective rough texture on the market. They are a series of curved lines arranged on the face of the blade in both directions. This allows both left and right handed players to increase spin when hitting slices.
HANDLESAFETY TECHNOLOGY
Handlesafety is the security system that the handle of the blade has. Usually the blades are manufactured with a hole centered in the handle from which the rope comes out. This method sometimes fails and the situation may arise that the blade detaches from the string, causing an error in the game and a dangerous situation for all players.
Handlesafety technology has solved this problem, since the rope passes through the two walls of the handle and thus prevents the blade and the rope from separating. It also offers us extra comfort on the wrist.
