Kinetic: A strip of pods containing hundreds of tiny lead bearings is incorporated inside of the racquet frame during production. If you shake the racquet it sounds almost like sand inside the frame. This strip creates a secondary energy source, reduces shock & dampens vibration, and provides exceptional torsional stability. Simply put Kinetic is better shots, more often, with less pain!

Ionic: Ionic technology delivers advancement to the famed Kinetic Technology adding a Jetron fill to the chambers. Jetron is a remarkable inelastic composition of ionizing carbon structures used as a coating for the Kinetic mass and chambers, creating a completely clean and unique feel of pure atomic energy.

Q:
whats the difference between this racquet and the 7G

Know the answer? Answer this question
1 answer
- A:
  These two racquets are similar, but there are a few key differences. The Pro Kennex Kinetic Ionic 5 and the Pro Kennex Kinetic Pro 7G are from two different (but similar) technology families. Although both use Kinetic technology to dampen shock, the Kinetic Ionic 5 is the next evolution of Kinetic technology and uses a special coating inside the Kinetic chambers that prevents the material from becoming stuck to the walls of the chamber. Additionally, the Kinetic Ionic 5 features 5 grams of the Kinetic material, while the Kinetic Pro 7G features 7 grams of the Kinetic material.
