Stiga Cybershape 18K LW Gen 2
De Stiga Cybershape 18K LW Gen 2 is de lichtgewicht uitvoering van de 18K-serie binnen de tweede Cybershape-generatie. In snelle duels aan het net kan elke gram verschil maken. Daarom combineert STIGA in dit racket het precieze gevoel van de 18K-serie met een lager gewicht en een snellere manoeuvreerbaarheid. Het resultaat is een racket waarmee je sneller reageert, makkelijker in positie komt voor je slag en controle houdt wanneer het spel versnelt.
Ten opzichte van de eerste generatie Cybershape, zoals de 18K LW2, is Gen 2 doorontwikkeld op basis van feedback van spelers. Het racket heeft meer afgeronde hoeken, vloeiendere overgangen en versterkte randen. De hals is opnieuw ontworpen voor een betere ergonomie en meer ruimte voor tweehandige slagen.
Voor welk type speler is dit racket geschikt?
De Stiga Cybershape 18K LW Gen 2 is bedoeld voor gevorderde spelers die snel willen reageren zonder minder aanvallend te hoeven spelen. Het lagere gewicht van ongeveer 345 gram maakt het racket snel aan het net en in verdedigende situaties, en het is een prettige keuze voor spelers die een lichter racket zoeken met het gevoel van een 18K-model.
Binnen de 18K-serie is de LW de meest wendbare uitvoering. De 18K Gen 2 is iets zwaarder met een zachtere Hypersoft Foam-kern, de 18K Hard Gen 2 en 18K X Hard Gen 2 zijn stijver en duidelijk aanvallender. Spelers die nog lichter of toegankelijker willen spelen, kunnen kijken naar de 3K LW of 1.3K Ultra LW van Gen 2.
Belangrijkste eigenschappen
Het slagvlak van 18K Carbon Duplex zorgt voor een stabiel, gecontroleerd en helder balcontact. Samen met het lagere gewicht wordt het makkelijker om te versnellen, terwijl je toch het gevoel houdt dat nodig is om richting en plaatsing te kiezen. De medium tot medium-hoge balans geeft een stabiele basis door de hele slag en helpt het racket snelheid te maken wanneer je naar voren speelt.
De Cybershape-vorm heeft een tot 20 procent grotere sweetspot dan traditionele ronde rackets, hoger in het blad. Dat geeft extra marge wanneer je weinig tijd hebt of niet ideaal staat. Het 360 Carbon Frame van 100 procent carbonvezel zorgt voor stabiliteit in het hele racket.
Speelgevoel en prestaties
Op de baan voelt de 18K LW Gen 2 licht in de hand en snel aan de bal. Bij snelle wissels aan het net en in verdedigende situaties ben je eerder klaar voor de volgende slag, terwijl het racket de stabiliteit en precisie behoudt die de 18K-serie kenmerkt.
De Stiga Cybershape 18K LW Gen 2 is daarmee een uitstekende keuze voor spelers die sneller willen reageren zonder in te leveren op ambitie: lichter in de hand, sneller bij de bal en met het vertrouwde 18K-gevoel.

All about the Stiga Cybershape 18K LW Gen 2
Shape
Round:
Round rackets have a low balance with a large sweet spot (ideal hitting point) in the center of the racket. Round rackets are very maneuverable and offer a lot of control. Perfect for beginners or experienced players who desire a lot of control in their game.
Droplet:
Droplet rackets have a slightly higher balance and a slightly smaller sweet spot. This provides an excellent balance between control and power. These versatile rackets are suitable for intermediate players and various playing styles.
Diamond:
The balance point is towards the top of the racket and the sweet spot is even smaller. The racket is less maneuverable but offers maximum power. These rackets are suitable for advanced players with an attacking playing style.
Hybrid:
Hybrid rackets combine features of droplet and diamond-shaped rackets. These hybrid shapes are often difficult to classify or even completely new. Usually, these rackets offer a mix of power and comfort. These rackets are often ideal for intermediate to advanced players and are accessible for multiple play styles.
Game type
Controlling:
These rackets are focused on precision and consistency, allowing players more control over their shots. They usually have a lower balance point and a larger sweet spot, making them suitable for players who prefer placement and tactics over power.
All-Round:
This type of racket offers a balanced mix of power, control, and maneuverability, making it suitable for various playing styles and skill levels. They are versatile and can be used for both offensive and controlling game strategies, with a sweet spot that offers a compromise between power and precision.
Attacking:
These rackets are designed to promote powerful shots and help players generate speed and spin for aggressive attacks. They often have a higher balance point for extra power in smashes and volleys, but a smaller sweet spot for more precision and control over powerful shots.
Touch
Soft Touch:
Rackets with a soft touch provide players with a subtle feel and cushioning when hitting the ball. These rackets absorb vibrations and offer more comfort, making them ideal for players who prefer control and precision over pure power.
Medium Touch:
Rackets with a medium touch offer a balanced mix of control and power. They provide sufficient feedback to the player when hitting the ball while still offering a good level of comfort. These rackets are suitable for players looking for versatile performance.
Hard Touch:
Rackets with a hard touch provide a more direct feel and less cushioning on impact. They deliver more power to shots and promote aggressive play, making them ideal for players seeking maximum hitting power and explosiveness.
Feeling
Light Feeling:
Rackets with a light feeling offer not only speed and maneuverability but are also less prone to causing injuries and feel comfortable during long play sessions. These rackets are ideal for players looking for a sense of control without compromising on comfort and arm health.
Medium Feeling:
Rackets with a medium feeling provide a balanced combination of control, power, and comfort. They give sufficient feedback to the player when hitting the ball and are suitable for players of various levels looking for reliable performance.
Heavy Feeling:
Rackets with a heavy feeling offer players more stability and power with each stroke, but they also often feel a bit heavier in the hand. These rackets are suitable for players who prefer a solid feel and maximum hitting power, even if it means a bit of extra weight.
Blade
Smooth:
Rackets with a smooth surface provide players with a consistent and smooth hitting experience. This surface minimizes friction and promotes quick ball movement, making it ideal for players who prefer control and precision in their shots.
Sand:
Rackets with a sand surface have a rougher texture that offers more grip on the ball. This surface enhances spin and placement, allowing players to impart more spin to their shots and better manipulate the ball during play.
3D:
Rackets with a 3D surface feature a relief pattern that is three-dimensional, creating a unique texture. This surface promotes spin, control, and precision, allowing players to add more variety and spin to their shots while maintaining a comfortable grip.
