Tecnifibre Carboflex NEO 125 NS

The Tecnifibre Carboflex NEO 125 NS is the signature frame of the most successful player of her generation: Nour El Sherbini. With a frame weight of 125 grams and a head size of 500 cm², this model sits at the same familiar weight as the standard 125, but with its own set-up, a thinner handle and its own look. TecniLAB analysed hundreds of swings and came to one conclusion: in squash you have hardly any time to react, so the acceleration of your racket determines how much pace you put on the ball. Those insights form the basis of the Tecnifibre Carboflex NEO 125 NS.

The biggest step sits in the head. X-TOP NEO drops the classic bumper completely: instead of a plastic protective strip, the frame gets aramid fibres against impact and a PTFE treatment against abrasion, with grommets integrated flush into the profile. The result is a sleek, closed frame that glides more easily along the wall and meets less air resistance. The redesigned grommets also take weight out of the head, which makes the swing weight of the Tecnifibre Carboflex NEO 125 NS five points lower than the previous generation. You notice it on quick volleys, on short shots into the front corners and on balls you have to retrieve deep out of the back corner.

Where the head became lighter, the throat became stronger. Heart Tech stands for a new shaft mould that is 3% thicker at the heart of the racket. That extra material thickness makes the shaft more reactive: less energy disappears into flex and more goes into ball speed. For the same effort you get more depth on your lengths and more bite on your kills. Because the dead plastic in the head has been replaced by active fibres, vibrations stay limited and the Tecnifibre Carboflex NEO 125 NS keeps the comfort you need during long rallies.

What makes the Tecnifibre Carboflex NEO 125 NS truly unique is in your hand: this is the only squash racket with a narrower handle. Nour El Sherbini has always played with a thinner grip, and that has been carried over one to one into this model. A narrower handle wraps your fingers closer around the shaft, so you feel more of what happens on the string bed – exactly what you need on short, delicate shots into the front corners. Combined with the low swing weight, the Tecnifibre Carboflex NEO 125 NS is aimed at advanced players who want to combine precision and pace in one frame – the very racket the multiple world champion uses on the PSA Tour.
