X-FULLERENE

X-FULLERENEThe speed of Badminton, which is the world’s quickest racquet sport, has been increasing due to developments in racquet technology and the new rally point scoring system.

In 2005, YONEX developed a new racquet helping to advance the levels of speed in the game. The racquet has been used by many of the world’s top players who have won medals at major tournaments internationally. The racquet in question is NANOSPEED which through Nanoscience contains Fullerene.

And in 2009, YONEX has taken Fullerene to the next level by developing "X-Fullerene" which will provide the next-generation of speed.

The NANOSPEED SEIRIES has made it possible to create a head lite racquet without reducing any vital materials whilst maintaining the maneuverability and repulsion power.

"X-Fullerene" provides more repulsion power and frame stability than Fullerene.

X-FULLERENEYonex developed the new generation Fullerene which has 4 radial ribs by manipulating Fullerene molecules to unite carbon atoms into a soccer ball structure.

The "X-Fullerene" is used in the resin which bonds the Carbon fibers and creating the cross-link construction. The tenfold increase in binding force made it possible to create 5 % higher repulsion power and 15% greater stability.

It’s now your chance to feel the speed world.

LIGHT Feel CARBON

Super light elastic particles are fused with the regular carbon fibres to create "Light Feel carbon". This is then combined with the CS carbon nanotubes to deliver more control and power from the higher flexing sides of the frame.

 

SOFT LEATHER GRIP

SOFT LEATHER GRIP A player's thoughts can be easily transferred to the racquet through the "Soft Leather Grip" that provides the best fit to the player's hand.

ELASTIC Ti

Elastic Ti provides the high elasticity needed for structural high strength and a powerful rebound effect. At impact, Elastic Ti resists deformation, stretching then recovering its shape quickly to launch accurate hits charged with the full energy of the swing.

ELASTIC Ti

NANOSCIENCE

YONEX Nanoscience achieves precise control over racquet functions at the molecular level. It establishes a high-performance molecular bond of the fullerene and carbon nano-particles, creating an ultra-lightweight racquet that's thinner, stronger and more stable than an ordinary racquet for maximum power and speed from swing energy.

 

Cup-Stack Carbon Nanotube

The new Cup-Stack Carbon Nanotube resembles multilayered cups uniformly stacked together providing increased durability and improved flexibility.

 

POWER ARMOR SYSTEM

POWER ARMOR SYSTEMThe Power Armor System integrates the principles of gravitational acceleration and the high-repulsion properties of Titanium to launch players to the next level of power and speed. The edge of the frame top is reduced to minimize distortion and maximize control.

New Control Support Cap

Control Support CapYonex have designed a new octahedron shaped Control Support Cap that reduces air resistance whilst encouraging nimble handling.

Control Support Cap

Control Support CapRDS Racquets feature soft grommets in the corners of the frame. These function to reduce the shock of off-centre hits which, in effect, widens the sweetspot further still.

ULTRA PEF

NEW GROMMET SYSTEM "UltraPEF - Ultra Poly Ethylene Fiber" has stickness and high shock absorbtion. The material is extremely light enough to float on water, and the 1 inch across is able to hang up about 20 tons. The telling shot which is requested by advanced-level players and the high repulsion by stretching and recovering its shape are achieved.

SUPER HMG

NEW GROMMET SYSTEM The new ARCSABER10 is adopted High Modulus Graphite which has been integrated into the side of the frame to produce a high repulsion power.

Hybrid frame, the combination of "Cup-Stack Carbon Nanotube" inside and "Super HMG" outside the frame, makes it possible to control a hard shot with flexibility and repulsion power.

NEW GROMMET SYSTEM

NEW GROMMET SYSTEMThis single-pass grommet hole construction provides more grommet holes, creating a high-performance stringing pattern that puts 7% more durability.

Shockless Grommet

Shockless GrommetYONEX integrates Shockless Grommets at the side of the frame to provide a soft feel and reduce the shock at impact.

Muscle Power Frame

Muscle Power FrameMuscle Power seats the string on rounded archways that eliminate stress-load and fatigue through contact friction. The construction creates total unity of the string and frame through closer-and-tighter contact.

ISOMETRIC

ISOMETRICThe Isometric Square Head Shape equalizes the length of main and cross strings in the stringbed, enlarging the sweetspot for more consistent accuracy even on off-center hits.

ULTIMUM TI

ULTIMUM TIMoulded into the racquet, it effectively stores energy on impact, then releases it in a quick-and-powerful snap-back action that transfers the fully energy of hits directly to the shuttlecock.

Titanium Mesh

Ti Mesh racquets demonstrate excellent resistance to the high twisting forces generated at impact and have a mass ideally balanced for more face stability and head speed.

Compact Frame

compact_frameThe smaller frame size further reduces unwanted air resistance and improves feel.

Aero-Box Vari-Frame

The Aero-Box Vari Frame reduces wind drag compared with a standard air-flow pattern, maximizing the power of the swing and the transfer of energy to the ball.

MEGA Frame

MEGA FrameDue to its unique large-frame design, the Mega-Frame further enlarges the already large sweetspot provided by the YONEX Isometric Square Head Shape. Compared with an ordinary racquet, the Mega Frame provides a 34% larger sweetspot for more reach and more effective off-centre hits.

MEGA G2 Frame

MEGA G2 FrameThe top right and left part of the frame are made to resemble to the cross-sectional shape of the grooves of a girder. Girder Grooves Frame increases the frame stability.

Dura Frame

Dura FrameThis frame is higly durable.

Super Slim Long Shaft

Super Slim Long ShaftThe slimmest racquet ever produced by Yonex vastly reduces air resistance whilst providing maximum flex.

New Built-in T-Joint

New Built-in T-JointThe new lightweight Built-in T-Joint is manufactured from an epoxy resin material that enhances the level of quality and performance by increasing the stability of the shuttle on the string bed and through the air.

Built-in T-Joint

Built-in T-JointMoulded deep into the layers of graphite where the frame connects with the shaft, the YONEX built-in T-Joint creates a durable and high-strength one-piece frame that is torque-free.

LSC SYSTEM

VIBRATION FILTER CAPThe LSC (Low Shock for Comfort) system minimizes impact shock. Arm comfort is raised and shock impact is reduced to 15% less than a conventional racquet.

DELTA POWER FRAME

LSC SYSTEMYONEX applied the technologies of Aerodynamic Shape and Box Shape to the Delta Power Frame, which creates a stable and solid hitting face without sacrificing its power.
