O³ Technology: Prince has once again revolutionized the art of racquet design with the launch of the O³, a breakthrough in racquet engineering that allows you to hit your best shots more often.

By replacing the traditional pin-sized string holes with giant O-Ports, a super aerodynamic frame has been created with a more responsive stringbed. This increases the sweet spot by 54%, creating a Sweet Zone, which means you hit your best shots more often. What's truly impressive is that Prince did it all without enlarging the racquet head, increasing it's length, or adding weight. So it's easy to maneuver and quicker through the air.

The new O³ engineered racquets are created through a one step fusion process that utilizes the strongest structure known to mman, the Arch, creating the frame's O-Ports. These O-Ports stabilize the racquet and provide total string freedom for a livelier response across the entire string bed. This eliminates the dead zone that traditional string holes create, giving players more consistency, greater stability and more confidence to hit their best shots more often. In addition, the O-Ports aerodynamic design provides a faster swing speed, enabling players to reach more balls and win more points, more often.

        Comments about Prince O3 Silver Oversize:

        I have played tennis for more than 40 years but for the past 10 years I have been at best a recreational player. I just got back into tennis again when a high school coaching position opened up. Since then I have really worked on my game and decided to replace my old, heavy ESTUSA. The Prince O3 Silver OS is a world of difference. It is light, high powered and maneuverable. It took me a while to learn to control the shots due to the differences but that was to be expected with an OS. I am getting older so I don't have to work as hard with this racquet but if you want to you can hit hard. This is my 2nd O3 Silver purchase. I was so impressed with the first one I wanted a backup for it.

        Service and delivery comments:

        Delivery was prompt and the racquet was in good condition.

            Great all around racket. I have played for years with a Head SI 6 and I never thought I would like a racket any better; however, I think this is an overall better racket for a 60+ player.

                The Prince O3 is an excellent choice for an older player who plays traditional games.

                A:

                The O3 Silver is a great racquet for doubles players looking to add some pop to their volleys. It has an oversized head and a large sweetspot making it a forgiving racquet. Although it doesn't transmit more shock than any other racquet, the Prince O3 Silver does not have any particular shock absorbing technologies either. If shock absorption is a major concern for you, then you may want to try something different. Several of Wilson's racquets still use Triad technology and Pro Kennex racquets are also specially designed to combat shock and tennis elbow.

            Prince tennis racquets have always been revolutionary; in fact, they made the very first oversized racquet. Today, Prince racquets can be found in the hands of pros—like David Ferrer and Gael Monfils—and recreational players alike. Overall, Prince tennis racquets are known for increased ball control and stability and a significant reduction of frame vibration, making them perfect for any player type. But Prince doesn't just make tennis racquets. They also make fine tennis shoes, tennis apparel, grips, strings, squash racquets, and squash eyeguards.
