AK 23 is the blade of the Youth World Champion 2024, Annett Kaufmann. Directly under the outer ply, the extremely stable “BULLET CARBON” confers to the AK 23 its unique touch. In short and fast open rallies, AK 23 not only confers tremendous speed, but also sufficient control and a great ball sensation: in a passive game put the adversary under pressure with precise block balls. This wide variation and outstanding tempo characteristics are what set this absolute high-end product apart, as well as Annett’s playing style, which is why it bears her name.
