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. La construction de 16 mm augmente le dwell, la prévisibilité du petit jeu et le confort, tout en réduisant le pop gratuit face au 14 mm.",
