Oliver Supralight Silver – ultra-light squash racket for speed and control
The Oliver Supralight Silver is an exceptionally light squash racket for ambitious recreational, club and advanced players. Its approximate 105 g frame weight supports very fast handling and short reaction times during volleys, rapid rallies and sudden changes of direction.
The head-light balance improves manoeuvrability and allows precise racket-head control. At the same time, the open longstring construction provides a lively string response and effective ball acceleration.
Direct successor to the Oliver X-Light 9.1
The Supralight Silver is technically identical to the successful Oliver X-Light 9.1. The principal differences are the model name and updated cosmetic design.
Players familiar with the fast, head-light feel of the X-Light 9.1 will therefore find a similarly configured alternative in the Supralight Silver.
Approx. 105 g frame weight
The low frame weight supports quick preparation and rapid recovery for the next shot. The racket feels particularly agile during volleys, fast exchanges around the T and late changes of direction.
An ultra-light frame has less natural mass than a heavier racket. An active and technically clean swing therefore helps produce the required length and pace.
Head-light balance for rapid manoeuvrability
The head-light weight distribution positions more of the noticeable mass close to the hand. The racket head therefore feels light and can be accelerated, corrected and returned to the ready position quickly.
This configuration is particularly suitable for players who take the ball early, volley frequently and build their game around pace, technique and fast changes of direction.
Metacarbon™ for lightweight stability
The frame is made from Metacarbon™, a lightweight carbon composite. The construction combines very low weight with useful stability and direct energy transfer.
At impact, the racket provides clear feedback without feeling slow or cumbersome. The material also helps reduce unwanted vibration and maintain a controlled response.
Longstring head with a generous hitting area
In the longstring construction, the main strings extend further towards the shaft than on a conventional bridge frame. The longer strings can flex more at impact and support a dynamic trampoline effect.
The approximate 487 cm² head provides a generous useful hitting area. This assists on slightly off-centre contacts and combines fast handling with useful forgiveness.
Green Oliver SQ-X5 factory string
The Oliver Supralight Silver is supplied ready to play with a green Oliver SQ-X5 string. The bright string complements the silver carbon design and supports the racket’s dynamic character.
For later restringing, approximately 13 kg on the mains and 11 kg on the crosses is recommended. String and tension can be adjusted to suit the preferred balance of power, control and feel.

Who should choose the Oliver Supralight Silver?
The Supralight Silver suits players looking for an exceptionally light, head-light racket for rapid reactions, volleys and agile racket-head control.
Its longstring head still provides effective ball acceleration and a generous hitting area despite the low frame weight. Players preferring a heavier and calmer impact feel may be better served by a racket with more frame mass.
