Panagiotis Gionis's own racket: a Petr Korbel blade with Tenergy 05 on the forehand and Feint Long II on the backhand.
- Blade: Petr Korbel, 5 wood plies, a long-standing best-seller with an excellent balance of attack and defence, suited to players of any level; reaction 10.6, vibration 8.2
- Flared handle, concave in the centre, the most popular shape
- Forehand: Tenergy 05, 2.1 mm sponge; Spring Sponge, High Tension rubber and a tacky surface give a distinctive feel and a full range of topspin power close to the table or from mid-distance; speed 83, spin 76, arc 79, hardness 36
- Backhand: Feint Long II, 1.1 mm sponge; it leaves opponents unsure what spin is coming back, producing wobbly knuckle balls when blocking or hitting and heavy underspin when chopping or chop-blocking; stability 5, variation 5, hardness 38
- Delivered fully assembled; Butterfly's Pro-Line glue lets worn rubber be peeled off easily, so the blade can be kept and fitted with fresh rubber
