The Katana bend can also place the release point of your shots further in front of you. It can generate a little more snap on shots and feeds, too, by extending the follow through motion. The ball stays in the sweet spot of the pocket longer to generate more power. Constructed of Custom 7075 series alloy with a concave octagon profile for excellent control.
