Pierre his racket is a carboflex, why do all these companies use the carboflex frame?
B says

Because it’s as perfect of frame design as there has been in the last ~15yrs, or at least since the og HotMelt. Any style of player can play well with it. You count up everyone using that mold and it’s at least 35% of the tours.
Either TF or the factory they use allows other companies to “clone” the racquet mold. It really is just an incredibly well design. It has all the manueverability of a smaller head racquet with the power of a full sized string bed. Without sawing one in half, I’m betting the internal wall thickness at the head is thicker than the average stick. Durability, even in the “knockoffs” is outstanding.
Squash is a worldwide sport. There are brands that only exist is certain countries/areas all over the world. These little guys don’t have the development to create their own designs, Meanwhile, factories that make racquets are more than willing to sell blank frames they make with any paint scheme you could want, as long as you’re buying at least 500 or so. I love the fact that Xamsa talks openly about the process on their site. If I ever need to buy another ‘Flex racquet, I’ll get one of theirs.

It appears he’s back with Adidas (from Seattle pics) – didn’t last long with Salming (or asics)

he’s wearing the adidas stabil bounce – himself and Gaultier seem to be the main Adidas players
