This model clearly doesn't sit on the extreme power side, but isn't purely control focused either. It is built for players who want to build up the game and accelerate at the right moment.\u003cbr\u003eWithin the Lok range, the Carbon Hype 2 positions itself as a versatile and technical racket for players who want to play consistently and don't depend on maximum power from the racket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eWhat type of player is this racket suited for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Lok Carbon Hype 2 is suited to advanced players who can play on either side, provided the playing style is all round. Right side players who want to organise the game, play a lot of rallies and work with placement and tempo get a lot out of this racket. It is also usable for left side players who don't play purely on smashes but value variation and control.\u003cbr\u003eFor players who play purely on power and finishing, or who are after a distinctly diamond shaped racket, this model is less suitable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe hybrid to teardrop shape places the sweet spot slightly above the middle, which helps add power without losing much control. The balance is in the middle, which keeps the racket manoeuvrable in defensive situations and feeling stable on volleys and overheads.\u003cbr\u003eThe hitting surface is built from carbon (12K structure) and has a medium to medium hard blade feel. The blade is clearly firmer than fibreglass models, but less stiff than distinctly power focused rackets with a high carbon concentration. This creates a direct response and good precision, while still offering enough playability.\u003cbr\u003eThe core consists of EVA rubber, which provides a controlled ball exit and functional dampening. Comfort is present, but secondary to stability and control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003ePlaying Feel and Performance\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn court, the Lok Carbon Hype 2 feels stable, controlled and versatile. In rallies the racket offers plenty of certainty and predictability. During attacking moments you can accelerate, but the power mainly comes from the player's technique rather than automatically from the racket.\u003cbr\u003eThe Carbon Hype 2 is therefore a sensible choice for players after a well balanced racket they can use to build up the game, vary their play and apply controlled pressure, without playing with an extreme or demanding power model.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lok","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48476996501748,"sku":"LOK-CH2","price":299.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0790\/2724\/1204\/files\/BullpaddelPindaro_60.jpg?v=1780929710","url":"https:\/\/au.justpadel.com\/products\/lok-carbon-hype-2","provider":"Justpadel Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
