The Horizontal 20 and Horizontal 55 showcase a horizontal pimple structure, strategically crafted to enhance spin effectiveness and introduce versatility to your game. Conversely, the Vertical 20 and Vertical 55 feature a vertical pimple arrangement, offering superior control and stability for defensive strokes.
Concerning sponge hardness, the Vertical 20 and Horizontal 20 are equipped with an extra soft 20-degree sponge, giving players enhanced control and a better feel for various defensive techniques.
