Its modern design, combined with technologies like 3D carbon, M-EVA Balance foam, and anti-vibration systems, makes it a racket particularly suited for versatile players who want to excel in both attack and defense.
A racket designed for versatile players
The StarVie Raptor+ 2026 is not a “signature” model associated with a player. Its appeal lies elsewhere: a teardrop shape and a versatile philosophy, designed to balance power, control, and maneuverability within the same frame.
The idea is simple: to offer a racket capable of supporting a complete game, with a stable base for defending under pressure and enough responsiveness to accelerate when the rally opens up. The technologies in the 2026 collection align with this goal, notably the Dynamic Star system (balance adjustment) and Anti-Vibe (vibration reduction).
StarVie Raptor+ 2026 — Key Features
The StarVie Raptor+ 2026 adopts a teardrop shape designed for versatility: providing stability during the rally’s build-up phase, and enough responsiveness to accelerate when the rally opens up. An interesting compromise for players who alternate between offensive game and more tactical placements.
Construction and Materials
The racket relies on a 3D Carbon surface (and not a “3D carbon frame”), designed to provide a firmer response and good stability on impact, especially when putting power into shots.
The M-EVA Balance core aims for a medium-hard feel: a rather reactive sensation, with consistent ball output and a level of comfort that remains controlled over time.
The textured surface (Spin Boost type technology) and the Dynamic Star system (interchangeable star) allow for slight adjustments to the feel: the goal is to be able to modulate the balance according to what you are looking for, more maneuverability or a bit more inertia in the ball.
Finally, the Anti-Vibe system is there to dampen vibrations and improve comfort, a valuable feature when rallies get longer or impacts are off-center.
