Up until the 1970's, virtually everyone engaged in racket sports was using wooden rackets with leather gripped handles and natural gut strings. The introduction of aluminium and steel frames paved the way for increasingly lightweight and highly durable materials. Today most racket frames are made from light-weight graphite or graphite composites that incorporate materials such as titanium, kevlar or fibreglass, giving added levels of frame flexibility, while remaining cost effective.
