The TIBHAR Hybrid K3 was developed in cooperation with the top players Shang Kun, Cedric Nuytinck and Darko Jorgic.
Three world-class players with different playing systems, united in the pursuit of a well-tuned combination that offers enormous rotation with the greatest possible speed at the same time.
This was exactly the focus of the development. The challenge was great, because a high-grip surface like the one we use on the Hybrid K3 actually reduces speed due to the longer contact with the ball.
By developing a special coordination of sponge and pimple rubber, we succeeded in directing the energy transfer forward despite enormous grip and achieving high speed values.
