18K Hard Cybershape Gen 2 is designed for offensive players looking to combine speed, weight, and precision. The stiffer construction and high balance help you create extra acceleration through the ball, especially in overhead shots.

18K Carbon Duplex offers a hard, responsive feel at ball impact, and the large sweet spot helps you maintain stability and precision – even when you play offensive shots.

More weight in the attack. More response when you accelerate.

The Cybershape Gen 2 didn’t begin on the drawing board. It was born on the court.

We’ve listened to players, collected feedback from training and matches, and taken the insights we’ve gathered to the drawing board. The results: a refined construction with more rounded corners, smoother transitions, and reinforced areas to create a more robust whole.

The redesigned neck improves ergonomics and offers more room for a two-handed grip, and every detail has been developed with a clear purpose: improved feel, durability, and playing experience – so you can feel the difference.

It’s how we develop our products at STIGA – close to the players and the game, and with an unflagging dedication to making Cybershape even better.

BIGGER SWEET SPOT.
LESS AIR RESISTANCE.

The unique Cybershape design gives you a larger hitting surface and a higher sweet spot, while the aerodynamic shape reduces air resistance — giving you more consistent, faster and more powerful shots.

MAKE YOUR OPPONENT FEEL THE HEAT

When the opportunity presents itself, the racket should help you take advantage of that chance. The 18K Hard Cybershape Gen 2 is designed for offensive players who want to create speed, weight, and acceleration without losing control of ball impact. The stiffer construction and high balance help you build power through the ball, especially in overhead shots. 18K Carbon Duplex delivers the precision and feedback you need to continue playing aggressively, even when there’s less room for flexibility.

MADE FOR THE ATTACK

The tightly woven structure of 18K Carbon Duplex creates a hard, responsive hitting surface that transfers energy efficiently when you accelerate through the ball.

The more involved you become in the game, the more you’re rewarded.

GEN 2: BUILT ON REAL FEEDBACK

The second-generation Cybershape is the result of close collaboration with players and the feedback we’ve gathered about the first generation.

We’ve refined details that truly make a difference: more rounded corners, smoother transitions, a more robust construction, and a redesigned neck for improved ergonomics and more room for two-handed grips. This is a natural part of how we develop products at STIGA – we test, we listen, we improve, and then we test again.

The Cybershape design’s 20 % larger sweet spot higher up on the racket creates a larger effective impact area, precisely where many of the decisive shots will land. This helps you combine high acceleration with stability and precision. The 360 Carbon Frame in 100 % carbon fibre offers a solid construction, even when the game is at its most intensive.

CREATE AN OPENING, TAKE THE POINT

The 18K Hard is not built to wait for the decisive shot. It’s made for players who want to win the point.
