The ball striking portion includes a first surface layer, a second surface layer and an inner layer, and the inner layer has a honeycomb cross section. The ball striking portion is provided with a plurality of through holes, and the through holes are linearly connected to the first surface layer, the inner layer and the second surface layer.

Thereby, since the inner layer is a honeycomb-like structure, the overall weight of the Peak racquet can be effectively reduced. In addition, through the plurality of through holes in the ball striking portion, the airflow can be assisted to pass through the ball striking portion, thereby reducing the wind resistance at the time of the swing.

In one aspect, the through holes are arranged at equal intervals to effectively direct airflow through the ball striking portion. In order to more effectively reduce wind resistance and enhance the overall visual aesthetics of the Peak racquet, the through holes may be arranged in a square array.

On the other hand, the pore diameter of each of the through holes is between 3 mm and 12 mm, which is effective in reducing wind resistance on the one hand and weakening the structural strength of the ball striking portion on the other hand.

In another aspect, the side strip is also included, and the side strip is connected around the ball striking portion, which can optimize the hitting feeling and can make the edge of the entire Peak racket hit a certain degree to avoid the damage of the Peak racket.

In another aspect, the ball striking portion further includes a first carbon fiber plate disposed between the inner layer and the first surface layer, and a second carbon fiber plate disposed between the inner layer and the second surface layer Between the first carbon fiber board and the second carbon fiber board, the structural strength of the Peak racquet can be effectively enhanced.

In another aspect, the inner layer can be made of polypropylene (PP), which can effectively extend the residence time of the ball in the face, help the user to control the ball, and the polypropylene also has the function of shock absorption.

In another aspect, a non-woven fabric and a spacer rubber may be disposed between the first carbon fiber board and the inner layer and between the second carbon fiber board and the inner layer to prevent the adhesive from entering the inner layer.

In another aspect, the inner layer can be made of aluminum foil to dissipate the pressure transmitted from the first skin layer or the second skin layer to the inner layer when hitting the ball.

In another aspect, the first skin layer and the second skin layer can be made of polycarbonate (Polycarbonate; PC), which not only allows the surfaces of the first and second skin layers to be suitable for printing various patterns, but also increases the roughness of the surface. In turn, the friction between the first surface layer (or the second surface layer) and the Peak ball during the swing is increased, the rotation speed of the Peak Ball is increased, and the feel at the time of the swing is optimized.
