TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
Learning grip technology
Research carried out by Artengo and Decathlon's R&D research centre have shown that kids' rackets should be chosen to suit height and hand size. Learning grip technology makes the racket easy to hold and offers a very comfortable grip.
Learning Grip Markings
The three markings on the grip help children to position their hand to more easily learn the three main tennis strokes: "Forehand", "Backhand" & "Serve"
Weight
The light weight (177g) will make their first rallies at the tennis club much easier.
Learning Grip handle
The oval grip shape is suited to children's hands, with a very grippy material for an excellent grip on the racket.

Looks nice, daughter likes it, colour coding for hand grip position is really good, but I researched extensively for a lightweight racket and at 177g compared to more expensive models. However on weighing on digital scales is actually 200g. (Which in racket terms is quite a lot of difference), good for the price though so 4 stars still.

The "Learning Grip" helps children as they learn to serve and do forehands and backhands!
