NANOMETRIC

NANOMETRIC* improves the bonding strength between the carbon fibres enabling us to take racquet shaft construction to another level. By reducing the amount of carbon in the shaft to make it 60%* thinner than a conventional racquet whilst retaining stiffness, YONEX has created a revolutionary lightweight racquet with lightning head speed and control. *NANOMETRIC is the new material which applies the NANOALLOY^TMTechnology of Toray Industries, Inc. *approximate measurement when compared to a conventional racquet shaft, tested by YONEX

NANOMETRIC DR

UNIQUE TECHNOLOGY

NANOMETRIC DR is a new carbon material developed by Yonex based on our unique NANOSCIENCE technology. Created from a material originally developed for next generation space aviation by Toray Industries, Inc., this marks the first time it has been used within the racquet industry. By combining firm shuttle hold and high repulsion, NANOMETRIC DR puts the DUORA into a class of its own.

AERO+BOX FRAME

Combines solid hitting feel and quick swing.

COMPACT FRAME

FASTER SWING To balance the heavy racquet head, the frame has been made smaller to maintain the fast swing demanded by advanced players.By reducing the drag caused by air resistance, the head-heavy feeling is reduced and racquet handling speed is increased.

DUAL OPTIMUM SYSTEM

Power up your forehand and backhand with the Dual Optimum System.

DUORA GROMMET DESIGN

The new DUORA Grommet design features 8 linked grommets made with differing thicknesses on either side of the frame. When hit on the box side, thicker and harder grommets on the aero side result in a stiffer string bed, ultimately increasing launch power on the shuttlecock.

HORIZONTAL A-CONCEPT

YONEX has designed a new grommet pattern called the HORIZONTAL-A CONCEPT that has helped us create the smallest frame in our history. The pattern anchors 4 strings horizontally to allow greater flex in the string bed and to create an enlarged sweet spot at the top of the frame. So even off-centre shots can be powerful.

ISOMETRIC

Enlarged Sweet Spot ISOMETRIC^TM technology continues to help the world’s greatest players achieve global success. Developed over 30 years ago, the ISOMETRIC^TM design increases the sweet spot by 7%*. Compared to a conventional round frame, a square-shaped ISOMETRIC^TM racquet generates a larger sweet spot by optimizing the intersection of the main and cross strings. ISOMETRIC^TM delivers greater control without sacrificing power. ISOMETRIC^TM is a Trademark of Yonex CO., LTD. *Tested by Yonex

NEW GROMMET PATTERN

HIGH PERFORMANCE  The single-pass grommet hole construction provides more grommet holes for a more high-performance stringing pattern.

SOLID FEEL CORE

CUTS VIRBRATION

The built-in solid feel core cuts harmful miscellaneous vibration at impact. Solid feel core is carried in all racquets manufactured in Japan.

EXTRA SLIM SHAFT

THINNEST, STRONGEST EVER - PRODUCED BY YONEX

Cutting edge NANOMETRIC carbon technology is used to produce an ultra-thin, ultra-tough, aerodynamic shaft, created for a stronger and more intense shot.

CONTROL SUPPORT CAP

SHARP MANEUVERABILITY The control support cap provides an 88% wider flat surface compared with an ordinary racquet for easier gripping, fast follow-through and the sharpest maneuverability.

NEW BUILT-IN T-JOINT

The lightweight T-Joint increases stability of the shuttle on the strings, maximizing power and control.

EX-HMG

Provides sharper power for all your shots.
