PRODUCT INNOVATIONS IPrince’s industry leading R&D department has revolutionized the game of squash by dictating how all racquets are designed and constructed today. Some of the key frame technology introductions are:

1988 - Extender: By removing the throat bridge from a traditionalracquet head design, main strings are extended and frame weight is reduced for unprecedented lightweight power.

1989 - CTS Extender: The Extender concept is improved with theConstant Taper System (CTS), a new beam design with a wider cross section at the tip, tapering to a narrower dimension in the throat. CTS expanded the sweet spot toward the tip, a critical area for squash players since so many balls hit close to the wall.

1991 - Extender OS: Prince breaks the headsize barrier again with the maximum headsize allowed in the game, providing players with maximum power and sweet spot size.

1993 - Extender Lite 180, 185, 190: A radical shaped series of Extender racquets with a straight teardrop shape and 10 main strings toachieve the fastest racquet in the game.

1994 - CTS Extender Elite II: Another lightweight milestone was achieved becoming one of the most popular Prince models of all time.

1995 - ThunderLite: Sweet spot is expanded and vibration reducedby incorporating the popular Sweet Spot Suspension System.

1996 - Duralite/Wallbanger: Another first for Prince – the first squash racquets with an impact absorbing bumper, enhancing the durability of the frame.

1997 - Power Ring: Prince revolutionizes squash again with this new patented technology. By having the main strings wrap around an inverted ring in the throat, string bed resiliency is maximized resulting in unprecedented power.

1999 - Power Ring Ultralite Ti: Titanium reinforcement is achieved in a super lightweight of 135 grams, and combined with Power Ring technology

2000 - TT Ring: Triple Threat, a unique weight distribution systemincorporating carbon-copper-titanium in three strategic locations, improves the stability of the racquet resulting in an expanded sweet spot in all directions.

2003 - More Technology: Prince revolutionizes squash again byintroducing a racquet with no drilled holes! This breakthrough achievement includes molding two separate frames together forming the most superior racquet construction ever for unprecedented power, control and frame strength.

2005 - Technology: Large -ports at 12, 3 and 9 o’clocklocations of the frame significantly reduce aerodynamic drag increasing swing speed by 24% and increasing sweet spot size by up to 59%.

2008 - Speedport: Taking technology to a new level with rectangular shaped ports for greater power and racquet maneuverability.

2010 - Technology: Large holes or string suspension let the strings respond more freely for enhanced response even at the outer edges of the frame.
