AERO OFF

China

Cornilleau AERO OFF is an ultra-light offensive blade that masterfully balances speed with control. Designed for topspin players, its lightweight construction enhances maneuverability for confident, close-to-mid distance attacks. Integrated AERO technology optimizes power transmission and provides clear, direct feedback with a unique, pleasing sound. The blade's flexibility and comfortable feel make it a standout choice for developing attackers seeking a responsive and forgiving playing experience.

5-Ply Construction

The blade is a symmetrical 5-ply all-wood construction. It features Fineline wood as the outer layers, offering a smooth finish and playing comfort. These sandwich inner layers of Ayous wood, which encase a central core of Kiri wood. This classic ply arrangement contributes to the blade's balanced performance, medium feel, and lightweight character.
