Official tech point and function introduction

According to the official data, OGKILS has successfully launched the new original ultra-low wind resistance wind breaker frame model after one year of wind tunnel modeling experiments and many times of mold prototyping in the self-research laboratory and external support laboratory. The frame is also stronger than other racket frames on the market.
Sharkskin Bionic Texture Coating
The frame has a number of bionic sharkskin texture coating, which applies the principle of bionics so that THUNDER BREATHING can change the air turbulence when swinging the racket to further optimize the wind resistance coefficient, to minimize the racket swinging wind resistance.
Zhenjin Center Barrel
A new generation of self-developed center tube technology, in the new carbon cloth stacking structure, “Zhenjin Center Bar” has a new breakthrough, elasticity and torsion have subverted the previous performance of OGKILS’s other models. The exclusive original secret formula of pre-dyed resin brings brighter and crisper hitting feeling. (The new material structure of the center barrel is trademarked as “Zhenjin Center Barrel.”)

Graffiti Design
Unpacking the package, the first thing that catches your eye is the OGKILS branded bag with lightning elements, which is as usual a street graffiti style that is quite eye-catching. When you take out the racket, a huge lightning bolt stands out, and the words “THUNDER BREATHING” are specially reflective.
The body of THUNDER BREATHING racket is quite eye-catching, with Midnight Blue and Electric White colliding and splicing together, possessing a very obvious character and high recognition. The racket is painted with a lot of bright blue and bright yellow, two colors that resemble lightning and thunder, and the design elements not only highlight THUNDER BREATHING’s thunder and lightning elements, but also deepen the overall richness and sense of hierarchy.
THUNDER BREATHING not only has a strong impact on the overall paint design, but also in the details of the portion of the portrayal is also in place, the racket periphery a lot of sports OGKILS OGKILS brand elements and thunder and lightning elements, and in the racket frame at 4, 8 o’clock on the inside of the Chinese character “Lei” for the re-design, which is similar to the portrait of a beast roaring, suggesting that the speed and power. The Chinese character “Lei” is redesigned on the inside of the frame at 4 and 8 o’clock to resemble a picture of a fierce beast roaring, suggesting speed and power.
THUNDER BREATHING uses dots or lines of three-dimensional water markers on many parts of the racket to enhance the overall sense of texture and texture.
Perhaps the design elements were inspired by the famous manga “Ghost Blade”, in which the “THUNDER BREATHING” school of swordsmanship is emphasized to the extreme speed to bring great attack and destructive power, and OGKILS racquets of the same name also strive to be in the extreme speed of the power contained in the sword, just to seal the throat.
As a young brand, OGKILS brings us a new self-developed ultra-low wind resistance racket frame and Zhenjin center tube on THUNDER BREATHING, which is OGKILS’ determination to move forward on the road of self-development. Let’s wait and see how it will feel in the field, and wait for the feedback from the players.
