The most extreme Axforce 100 (AYPW047, 2026 Expert edition): a stiffer shaft than the 100 II and a balance point pushed to roughly 317-320 mm. It is a rear-court smash specialist for strong, technically sound players, and sluggish at the net.

  • Highest head weight and stiffest shaft in the Axforce range
  • Direct, fast energy transfer on a clean smash
  • Glossy, chip-resistant finish
  • Very demanding and fatiguing to use
  • Slow in flat exchanges and net play
