TECHNOLOGIES 🧪 Front-court precision engineering

2G-Namd™ Flex Force

Second-generation Namd bonds graphene directly to carbon fiber for faster shaft flex and explosive snapback. Produces crisper, more explosive shot execution on net kills, drives, and quick defensive reactions.

Rotational Generator System

Counter-balanced weight distribution across grip end, frame top, and joint enables quicker recovery and fluid transitions between shots. Critical for fast front-court exchanges where reaction time decides the rally.

Ultra PE Fiber

High-strength polyethylene fiber reinforces the shaft for superior impact resistance and structural durability. Maintains integrity under the repeated high-speed impacts of elite-level doubles play.

Super Slim Shaft

Ultra-thin shaft profile minimizes air drag for faster racket movement and quicker handling. Essential for rapid net interceptions and fast-paced doubles rallies where milliseconds matter.

CFR (Carbon Fiber Reinforcement)

High-modulus carbon fiber reinforcement in the frame improves rigidity and power transfer. Produces a more solid, responsive feel at impact for confident, authoritative shot-making.

Expanded Sweet Spot

Enlarged hitting zone improves shuttle control and feel for advanced players. Delivers more confidence and consistency on precise front-court shots even under pressure.

STRINGS 🧵 Recommended Strings


Yonex AEROBITE BOOST Vectran mains lock in smash power while PU-coated crosses grip the shuttle feathers for heavy spin. Sharpens net kills and deceptive slices, and adds authoritative punch to drives and cross-court attacks.

Yonex BG66 Ultimax Thin 0.65mm gauge bounces the shuttle off instantly for a lively, energetic response. Adds pace and crispness to drives and flat exchanges, and keeps net kills sharp and fast across a full match.

Yonex EXBOLT 63 Ultra-thin 0.63mm gauge minimizes contact time on the string bed for the fastest possible shuttle exit. Wins tape exchanges and front-court net kills where a split-second advantage decides the rally.
