ORIGIN30

Description

The ORIGIN30 is the lightest and most responsive blade in the ORIGIN range. True to the common structure of the series — koto outer plies, identical architecture — it maintains the stability and readability characteristic of the range, whilst offering immediate liveliness.

Its 3 mm balsa core provides rapid ball acceleration and a direct, crisp and precise contact. Combined with the koto outer plies, it instantly returns the energy of the stroke, for a lively, quick and reactive game. Despite its lightness, the ORIGIN30 remains stable and consistent, true to PKB’s expertise.

It is the ideal blade for players who want maximum manoeuvrability and dynamism, to attack early, step up the pace and feel every ball with precision.

Who is it for?

• Light offensive or fast versatile players

• Players looking for a highly manoeuvrable and lively blade

Nota PKB

Handcrafted in France, the ORIGIN30 benefits from rigorous selection of veneers, calibration of the balsa core and piece-by-piece quality control. Each blade is unique: weight and colour may vary slightly.
