TECHNOLOGY
-
Rotational Generator System
Weight is distributed across the grip end, T‑joint, and frame top using counterbalance theory for fast recovery and seamless transitions between shots. -
ISOMETRIC™
Yonex’s square‑shaped head design expands the sweet spot by maintaining similar string lengths between mains and crosses, improving accuracy and consistency. -
2G‑Namd™ FLEX FORCE
Advanced carbon material that enhances shaft flex and snapback, helping players generate faster shuttle acceleration and deeper shots. -
Ultra PE Fiber
Lightweight fibres in the shaft absorb unwanted shock and vibration while maintaining strength and control. -
Aero + Box Frame
Combines aerodynamic movement with structural rigidity for a solid feel on impact and smoother swing speed. -
Energy Boost CAP PLUS
Optimised cap shape increases shaft performance, improving flex and stabilising the racket face for consistent contact. -
Power Assist Bumper
A tungsten‑infused nylon bumper directs more energy into the shuttle for heavier power and faster acceleration. -
Super Slim Shaft
Reduced air resistance from a slim shaft design creates faster swing speed and improved racquet handling.
