Oliver Apex 720 – attacking squash racket with power and control
The Oliver Apex 720 is a premium squash racket for experienced club and competitive players with an attacking style. Its approximate 125 g frame weight and slightly head-heavy balance combine good acceleration with enough mass for powerful drives.
The conventional bridge construction stabilises the racket head and supports accurate ball placement. This makes the Apex 720 particularly suitable for players who take the ball early, build pressure quickly and want to control their attacking shots.
Slightly head-heavy balance for attacking play
The slightly head-heavy setup places more noticeable mass towards the racket head. This helps accelerate the ball and creates a powerful response on cleanly executed shots.
Unlike extremely head-heavy models, the Apex 720 remains manageable and controlled. It therefore provides a balanced combination of attacking power, stability and reasonably quick handling.
Eplon™+K12 for stability and feedback
The frame is constructed from Eplon™+K12, a premium material combination used in Oliver’s Professional Line. It is lightweight, durable and designed for direct energy transfer.
The player receives clear feedback at impact. Accurate drives, quick volleys and attacking shots can be executed with control, provided the player already has reliable technique.
Bridge construction for precision and touch
The bridge construction shortens the freely moving main strings in the lower part of the head. This creates a more compact and controlled response than a completely open longstring frame.
The Apex 720 therefore suits technically confident players who value accurate placement, direct feedback and a stable racket-head feel.
Factory strung with Oliver SQ-X9
The racket is supplied ready to play with an Oliver SQ-X9 string. For later restringing, Oliver recommends approximately 12 kg on the mains and 11 kg on the crosses.
A high-quality full-size protective cover is included for transport and storage.

The Apex 720 suits experienced players looking for an attacking squash racket with a slightly head-heavy balance. Its strengths include powerful drives, early ball contact, quick attacking shots and stable racket-head control.
