Alacrán Imperator

The Imperator is the competition frame in Alacrán's line-up: a diamond mold with a high balance and an 18K aluminised carbon face, built for expert players whose game is decided at the net. It is the most demanding racket the brand makes — mass sits towards the top of the head, which is what produces the output and what punishes a late swing.

Alacrán names each racket individually rather than tiering one frame into Pro and Light builds, so the Imperator has no lighter version to step down to. If it is more racket than the game needs, the Poison and the Serket are the next frames across rather than down.
