StarVie Aquila Soft
The Soft build of the StarVie Aquila. A round head with a low balance, which keeps it quick to move and easy to recover with at the net. It is a control frame at beginner and intermediate level. Read the build word before the model year when comparing two Aquila listings: the year moves every season while the build word is what actually changes the racket.

About the StarVie Aquila Soft
The head is a round, which centres the sweet spot in the middle of the face, which is where a player who defends and constructs actually makes contact. The balance is low, so the racket stays easy to move through a long match. The face is soft, which widens the margin on off-centre contact. The core is EVA. Within the StarVie Aquila, Soft is the build word that separates this racket from its siblings; a model year on a listing describes the season it was sold in rather than where it sits in the range. The Aquila is StarVie's entry frame: a round head in soft EVA at a lighter overall weight, aimed at players in their first serious seasons.
