Collection note: No model year printed on the page; listed in the current racket range on dunlopsports.com. Weight is published as a single figure with no tolerance, so min and max are both that figure. Price is shown in EUR on the en-gb site. The page lists "Extra Grip: Improved spin." but does not say the face is textured or rough, so roughSurface is null. Core hardness is not stated. Product number 10359940. A search snippet of the US Dunlop page described this model as 12K carbon; the en-gb page fetched today says 16K.
