Il s’agit de spécifications et d’observations de construction, pas de la preuve que chaque exemplaire possède le même rebond, équilibre ou niveau de rugosité. La géométrie et l’épaisseur sont donc évaluées séparément du nom des matériaux. Le noyau de 14 mm donne une réponse plus sèche, rapide et directe, avec davantage de pop mais moins de dwell et de marge hors centre que le 16 mm.",
