Here’s a video review I did for this racket:

Product Notes

This is the same frame shape as Xamsa’s other “PXT” models, the Xamsa PXT 115 and the Xamsa PXT 110.

The deal with this one, as mentioned in the video, is the racket is made from Toray Japan Carbon Fiber.

The bottom line is this is supposed to result in less variability in the final weight and balance of the racket.

Sports Virtuoso explains why in more detail:

The racquet is made of 100% Toray Japan carbon fiber using prepreg technology.

Prepreg is a composite material in which a reinforcement fiber is pre-impregnated with resin in a specific ratio. This allows for direct laying into a mold without having to add resin. Every racquet has the same ratio of resin with no excess or dry spots. Uniform thickness allows for all racquets to be almost identical, with the same weight and balance as per advertised specifications.

What makes PXT Incognito unique is that it’s a consistently excellent racquet with consistent weight and balance for every racquet, not to mention a large sweet spot, effortless power and a sleek design.

When doing research we could not find any other squash racquet on the market made of 100% Japanese carbon fiber using prepreg technology and we are still not sure as to why.

Perhaps the racquet doesn’t need to be made out of such premium materials and it’s hard to justify the higher manufacturing cost which is almost twice as much as for standard racquets?

Because of the higher material costs of the Toray Japan Carbon Fiber, this racket comes unstrung, but you can add on a nice premium string when you order the racket.

2020

Xamsa came out with an updated model in 2020. This one is very similar to the 2017 model except it has just the pure carbon fiber frame without the black paint of the 2017 model. So, it’s 5 grams lighter on average. Reast assured, it is still 100% Toray Japan Carbon Fiber.

Xamsa PXT Incognito 2020 Review Transcript

I’m going to review this zamsa pxt incognito racket i’ve been testing it out and i’m also going to tell you i’m doing a giveaway of this racquet on friday november 2020 and i’m going to tell you how to enter the giveaway for this racket this is the 2020 version of the pxt incognito it’s this sort of classic teardrop shape i played with this racket in a couple different matches

I can tell you that it is it felt very very lightweight and so i played with the prior version of this the new mod which came out in 2017 the new model 2020 the difference is that it has no black paint on it it’s just the pure carbon fiber frame with a very small number of paint on here like a little x for zamsa and a little zamsa thing over here that you can hardly see and of course the up and down that never goes away on this amsterdam i did not get a chance to compare this with the prior version of the pxt because i did a little clean out of the squash source closet and i don’t have the other one but i know that on average this one is five grams lighter and tim from zamsa told me that because it doesn’t have the paint that just takes off five grams this is a 144 and a half gram racket on my scale all in everything it’s quite light and on the balance beam 36 centimeters headlight racket it is it felt that way and i was it i came from playing with a racket that was more head heavy and this was quite an adjustment

I would recommend this racket for someone who wants to be sitting on the tee quickly following everything or just wants a racket that feels like light is a feather moving through the air quickly attacking things quickly it was a it’s strung with the zamsa sense i think strings
