Pro Review:
The Fire 285 is ideal for players stepping up their swing speed. The lighter 285g frame accelerates easily, helping generate spin from the baseline. Isoflex improves consistency across the string bed, especially on off-centre shots, while X-Damp noticeably softens impact. It’s a strong option for club players wanting a faster, more forgiving frame without losing stability.

FAQs
Who is the 285g weight best suited to? It suits improving intermediates or players wanting easier acceleration and reduced fatigue over long matches.
How does Isoflex improve performance? Isoflex adjusts frame stiffness around the hoop to maintain a more consistent response, helping stabilise power and control on off-centre impacts.
