Varlion Bourne 8.8

Varlion Bourne 8.8

It is made of a bi-directional tubular fiberglass and carbon fiber, reinforced with carbon fiber plain weave in the core. Its core is made of 38mm medium stiffness Hypersoft Eva and is laminated with 3 layers of plain weave fiberglass, impregnated with VAR-FLEX epoxy resin exclusive to Varlion for maximum elasticity and strength, and coated with a layer of titanium dioxide.

TECHNOLOGIES

- HEXAGON FRAME: Hexagonal frame whose shape provides greater rigidity and resistance to the blade, by creating a rib in the frame that has a straight part (edge) and a chamfered part (chamfer).

- ADAPTED & GRADUAL HOLES: Gradual holing technology adapted to the shape of the blade. It consists of using 3 different hole sizes, making them smaller in the central area (10 mm diameter), medium in the middle area until we get closer to the frame (11.5 mm) and large in the perimeter area or closer to the frame (13 mm). With this drilling we compensate the excessive flexibility of the center of the blade with the low flexibility of the core area that joins the frame, thus allowing a greater homogeneity to the blows and increasing the resistance of the core. This drilling technology has also been used with 2 diameters (13mm in the perimeter area and 11.5mm in the central area) in ranges of blades not used by professional players as they turn out to be softer because the hole in the central area is 11.5mm instead of 10mm.

- HYPERMEDIUM: Medium soft foam core with spectacular measures of hardness and rebound, which gives the blades a very balanced control and power for normal ambient temperatures between 10 and 25/30º.
