O3 technology is the making of bigger holes on the grommet system in order to enhance string movement. This apparently allows for a bigger sweetspot and heavier spin. Meanwhile, nCode technology is the filling of the micro voids of racquets in order to receive full energy of contact. Many companies have nCode technology(Wilson, Babolat, and HEAD to name three).

I believe that Babolat was actually the first company to figure it out. It's just they didn't spend as much into the marketing of the racquet as Wilson did. I guess they (Babolat) made a business mistake!

Babolat's Woofer System was a copy of Yonex's Muscle Power. It's just Babolat is much more prevalent in NA and Europe than Yonex.

Obviously, Yonex is more popular than Babolat in Asia.

yes because yonex is an asian company. but in away i'm surprised babolat isn't popular in france. since it is a french company. it seems head has ruled france pro racket wise. i guess not that many star french players are using babolat

I agree, there are a lot of people at the club where I train that says I should change to the O3 because it is the new wave of tennis, but if I am comfortable with my shark racquets why go out and spend hundrends more on something new that you may not like as much in the long run.
