Thunder Series

  • Thunder UltraLite Titanium
    The Thunder Ultralite comes in two distinct head sizes. Although the Oversize (115) offering has a bigger sweet spot and a little more power, the MidPlus (100) has a little more maneuverability and a more solid feel. What may be surprising is that both are not high powered racquets, despite manufacturer billing as such. Both head sizes have enough power to keep them out of the "control racquet" category, but are nowhere near the top of the power scale. The UltraLite Ti is an ideal 'tweener racquet that will appeal to a wide variety of players, especially those looking for better control in an ultra-maneuverable, solid feeling package with the latest technology.

  • ThunderCloud Titanium
    If we ranked racquets according to value, the Prince ThunderCloud Titanium would rate near the top. It features Prince's full line of technologies - Sweetspot Suspension System, Morph Beam construction, Graphite Extreme/Titanium composition and ShockEraser Insert. Its light weight, oversize head and 1/2 inch of extended length make it a natural choice for serve and volley players and doubles specialists, while the open 16x20 string pattern is ideal for topspin and slice shots.
