Description of the Racquet

Ruben Gonzalez is one of the most respected players in all of racquetball and his dream of Ektelon creating a high end racquet has finally come true. The best part for Ruben is that this is one the best racquets ever made and we gave it 2006-2007 Racquetworld Racquet of the Year award. It incorporates Ektelon's highly successful O3 Technology with a weight system to place in the O3 ports at the top of the frame so depending on how you place them, you could be swinging a 165 all the way up to a 190 if you go by swing weight. Ektelon's lightest racquet ever!!

Each frame comes with a limited edition racquet cover that has Ruben doing his superman pose on one side and an O3 logo on the other. Although you get a cover with any racquet purchased from us, this is the nicest cover ever made from any manufacturer.

If you're a player looking for a great high end racquet, a player looking to upgrade, or even just a collector of racquetball that wants to support Ruben, you can't go wrong with this frame.

If you're unsure about your model or weight...try our DEMO Program.

These are available in XS and SS grip sizes.

RacquetWorld's General Notes

I would recommend changing the grip to a Python (Our favorite), or Head TackiMac  for the added traction to prevent slippage.  The Racquetworld Grommet Tape upgrade ($1) can save you $$ in the long run as sometimes strings break from the grommet being worn down.  For those who don't know what the grommet is, it's the plastic piece at the top of the racquet that the strings go through.  When you hit the wall and floor this gets worn down.

The Prince Premier string upgrade is recommended because factory string is less playable/durable then the Prince Premier string we suggest.  At the time of purchase, the Prince Premier restring upgrade is $21.95.  It's normally $36 if you mailed the racquet to us later so you save $14 if you choose the upgrade right away.

If you choose a vibration dampener go with the Ektelon Silencer (Our favorite), Head Hydrosorb, Gamma Worm or the BBB (Big Bad Band).

The wristlacer black is the default wrist tether that comes on your racquet at no charge.  If you want to change colors, a small fee of $2.95 will be added for switching.

A question we get everyday is "What is Grommet Tape?"  It's a piece of tape that goes over the head (bumper) of your racquet.  Sometimes you need a restring because of a broken bumper.  For an extra buck to add this, it could save you $25-40!!

We get follow up calls/emails everyday thanking us for the upgrades as they really help bring out the performance of the racquet.
