-
AERO+BOX Frame: A combination of faster swing speeds and a solid feel.
-
Isometric™: Square shaped head increases the size of your sweet spot by optimising the intersection of the main and cross strings.
-
Expanded Sweet Spot for Control: The tailored 5mm longer racket length enables fast manoeuvrability, while the expansion of the sweet spot area by optimizing the frame design increases precision.
-
Supports fast rallies and secures points from front court attacks.
-
Rotational Generator System: By applying the counterbalance theory, weight is distributed throughout the grip end, frame top and the joint for maximum control. The transition to the next shot can be performed smoothly, with rapid succession.
-
Ultra Slim Shaft: Designed to slice through the air and generate power.
-
Energy Boost CAP PLUS: This uniquely shaped cap maximizes shaft performance. The front allows the shaft to flex, while the sides arch shaped curve stabilizes the racket face by preventing the shaft from twisting.
-
REXIS Shaft: A high-performance shaft precisely designed with an original Yonex moulding technique. Improves shot performance and dominates the game.
-
Power Assist Bumper: Attached to enforce heavier, increased power by configuring the weight directed into the shuttlecock with a tungsten-infused nylon bumper.
Badminton racket grips/sizes should be big enough so that when holding the handle correctly (like shaking someone’s hand), the tip of your ring finger shouldn't touch your palm.
These days, most manufacturers are making rackets in a single size, so if you find the grip is too thin then you could apply an overgrip to the handle until you find a grip size/weight that you’re comfortable with.
Badminton racket sizes made simple:
-
3u5 = 85-89g racket weight.
-
4u5 = 80-84g racket weight.
-
5u5 = 75-79g racket weight.
