Tecnifibre Carboflex Neo 120 Squash Racquet

Tecnifibre Carboflex Neo 120 Squash Racquet

The TECNIFIBRE CARBOFLEX NEO 120 is the lightest racquet in the CARBOFLEX range, engineered to maximise swing speed, acceleration, and power on the squash court. Weighing just 120 g, this high-performance graphite racquet offers exceptional manoeuvrability while its optimised weight distribution and redesigned frame help players generate explosive power and fast reactions.

Designed for competitive and regular squash players, the Carboflex Neo 120 represents a major evolution of Tecnifibre's flagship Carboflex range. Its combination of X-TOP NEO technology, HEART TECH construction, an aerodynamic head design, and responsive Dynamix VP strings delivers the speed and power needed to perform in the tight spaces and fast exchanges of modern squash.

X-TOP NEO Technology – Maximum Swing Speed

X-TOP NEO technology removes as much plastic as possible from the top of the racquet head by redesigning the traditional grommet system. Three separate eyelets at the 12 o'clock position highlight the reduction of approximately 2–3 g of plastic, reducing weight at the front of the racquet and helping increase racquet-head speed.

The bumper is replaced with a combination of aramid fibres and PTFE treatment. Aramid provides high impact resistance, while the PTFE treatment helps protect the frame against abrasion from the floor and walls. Removing the conventional bumper also creates a smoother head profile, allowing the racquet to move more efficiently through the air.

HEART TECH – Optimised Power & Reactivity

The weight saved from the top of the frame is redistributed towards the centre of the racquet through the new ergonomic HEART TECH design. The shaft has been redesigned to be approximately 3% thicker with a more rounded profile, helping increase power and reactivity while maintaining the quick handling characteristics of the 120 g frame.

Lightweight 120 g Construction

At just 120 g, the Carboflex Neo 120 is the lightest model in the CARBOFLEX range. Its low weight makes it exceptionally easy to manoeuvre, helping players accelerate the racquet quickly when reacting to fast shots, taking the ball early, or creating attacking opportunities from difficult positions.

500 cm² Head – Power & Stability

The 500 cm² head size provides a balanced combination of power and stability. The generous hitting area offers useful forgiveness while maintaining the responsive handling expected from a competition-oriented squash racquet.

Extended String Hole Technology – Spin & Tolerance

Extended String Hole technology features twelve enlarged eyelets positioned at strategic points around the frame, including the 3, 9, and 12 o'clock positions. These openings allow the strings to move more freely and optimise elasticity, helping increase spin potential and tolerance on off-centre contact.

Dynamix VP Strings – Responsive Performance

The Carboflex Neo 120 comes pre-strung with Tecnifibre Dynamix VP, a responsive polyurethane multifilament string designed to complement the racquet's speed-focused construction. The combination provides a lively response and helps maximise the performance of the lightweight frame.

14x18 String Pattern – Aggressive Playability

The 14x18 string pattern is designed to provide a responsive hitting experience with increased string movement. Combined with Extended String Hole technology, the open pattern helps players generate spin while maintaining a dynamic response from the string bed.

Aerodynamic Head Design – Faster Through the Air

The bumper-free X-TOP construction creates a smoother racquet head profile, helping reduce resistance as the frame moves through the air. This aerodynamic design supports faster swings and complements the Carboflex Neo's focus on acceleration and manoeuvrability.

Built for Modern Squash

The Carboflex Neo range was developed around the importance of swing speed in modern squash. With rallies taking place at high speed and a significant proportion of shots being played into tight corners, players need to accelerate their racquet quickly within limited time and space. Tecnifibre's development programme focused on increasing racquet acceleration to help players of different levels execute faster and more effective shots.

Tour-Inspired Performance

The CARBOFLEX NEO range is used on the professional squash tour by elite players including Mohamed El Shorbagy, Nour El Sherbini, and Nouran Gohar. Developed through Tecnifibre's TECNILAB approach of identifying, quantifying, and addressing player performance needs, the range combines advanced technology with competition-focused playability.
