Squash Racket That Talks E-mail
CNET Crave Blog

You probably hate your squash coach for his constant scolding and vigorous training, not to mention the expansive fees you have to pay every month. Well, you can avoid all these with the new talking squash racket called Mana.

Designer Sophie Horton's Mana squash training aid aims to prepare the player against muscle imbalance and shoulder injuries by developing muscle strength in the player's arms. Its mechanism is inspired by the "ghosting" drills which give the player vocal instruction during practice.

The Mana clips onto the racket, with weights that can be adjusted according to the desired level of play, and gives vocal instruction during practice.

Unfortunately, the release date and pricing are yet to be known. Let's hope it will be out sooner than later.
