Ektelon O3 White Review


Racquetball Racquets Ratings Summary

Weight (Grams): 170 Racquet Length: 22 Head Size: 106 String Tension: 26-34 Introducing - Total Racquet Customization! Adjust racquet weight and balance for ultimate power and precision shot making! GET PLUGGED IN Power Plugs located at the top of the frame accelerate racquet head speed for greater power. Adjust the number of plugs you want to use for extra power or maneuverability. O3 is the only racquet technology that offers a faster swing speed and a larger sweet spot. By replacing traditional pin-sized string holes with revolutionary giant O-ports, our driven and never satisfied engineers reinvented the racquetball racquet again - creating a super aerodynamic frame with a more responsive stringbed. This increases the sweet spot, transforming it into a Sweet Zone, enabling players to reach more shots and rip more winners than ever before. Additional Features: Super WideBody - Delivering Extra Stiffness and Stability. Powerful precision. Increased Control. Woven titanium, copper, and carbon is placed in three critical racquet locations: 10 o'clock, 2 o'clock, and the bottom of the handle. A larger sweet spot is created in every direction. Arm shock is reduced. Power and control are increased, and stability is optimized. LongBody racquets add up to 10% more power and as much as 13% more reach to your game.

Very nice balance and swing. Great control. I've tried newer racquets that came in my sponsorship (XO3, O3 Red Speedport) but went back to O3 White.

I have now used my O3 Whites for two years. It is, by far, the best racquet I've every own. I've been playing since 1971 and I hit the ball hard. The racquet has great power, maneuverability, and control. I do recommend replacing the strings. I've replace my strings in each racket once (all by racquetworld) and I average playing 4 to 5 hours a week. I now own three (3), all bought new. I bought my third knowing Ektelon will replace it with something higher priced but probably only just as good. This racquest has my highese recommendation.

I own the O3 RG. I bought this racquet as a substitute but omg it is going to be my main now. Excellent control, maneuverability, kill shots were easier. I am playing with all the plugs on, making it a 174g racquet and 2 points head heavy. The racquet is awesome. It performs excellent from the front and back of the court. I am a heavy hitter and I usually play center mid court. The racquet has better control even with more power than the O3 RG. I was playing the RG with only the 2 red plugs making it even balanced. I highly recommend this racquet.

I own two of these racquets. I have only two complaints with this racquet. 1. the strings break extremely easy. While I tend to hit hard, both racquets broke strings within 4 sessions (8 hours) of play. I have had them restrung by Racquetworld with the best string and they are holding up significantly better. 2. These racquets tend to vibrate. Dampners and tape do help, but not enough.

Never broken a racquet until 03 white, even after 20 years of playing. I have owned for 6 months and have broken 2. I have replaced strings twice withing a week of return, very uncommon.

Sweet Racquet. I didn't think Ektelon would be able to improve on the '03 Black but they proved me wrong. Great overall racquet, no weak areas, no compromises.

This is my favorite racquet so far that Ektelon has made! I am a little faster in the front court with this racquet and my backhands are better than ever with the O3 White.
