Description

The Fire 285 delivers modern, power-focused performance with enhanced vibration dampening, a thinner, more precise frame mold, and a more head-light balance for faster swing speed - making it a strong choice for beginners to intermediate players, as well as experienced players who value added manoeuvrability and easy access to spin and power.

The 100 square inch head delivers a forgiving mix of power and control, while the open string pattern adds a lively feel with easy spin access. At a lighter 10.1 oz unstrung, the racquet combines responsive pop with impressive manoeuvrability, staying quick on serves, returns, and rapid net exchanges. Its head-light balance enhances racquet head speed and fast reactions, and the updated, thinner, more square frame mold improves precision, feel, and stability for a consistently connected, controlled response.

The FIRE series is built for the modern, faster game - blending power with enhanced stability, comfort, and swing speed. An upgraded X-Damp system reduces harmful vibrations by 36%, using a steel insert suspended in an elastomer pocket within the handle to counteract impact shock and minimize arm fatigue. The updated frame mold is thinner and more square for improved precision, feel, and stability, while revised balance and weight redistribution lower swingweight and create a more head-light, manoeuvrable response. Finished with a bold new flash cosmetic, the FIRE series delivers explosive power with refined control and comfort.

Overall, the Fire 285 offers a smooth, easy-to-swing blend of power, spin, and comfort - giving developing players the confidence to accelerate freely while still providing experienced players with the manoeuvrability they appreciate. Fast through the air and forgiving on contact, it’s a modern frame designed to help you play quicker, swing bigger, and stay comfortable match after match.
