Explore the Pulse E 16mm – Performance, Features, and Specs

$199.99
(5 stars)

The Pulse E is tailored for players who prioritize reach and leverage on the court. Its elongated 17-inch design, with a narrower 7-inch width, is complemented by a longer 6.25-inch handle—perfect for two-handed backhands and extended reach during defensive play. The combination of a poly aramid fiber surface and the narrow-cell honeycomb core offers a firm feel with the potential for impressive spin. The Pulse E is best suited for players who enjoy baseline play and want the extra leverage to dominate longer rallies, though it requires a more precise touch due to its narrower sweet spot.
