Refreshed Axforce 90 on a 6.4 mm shaft, offered in 3U, 4U and 5U. Sits between the Axforce 100 family and the 80 as an attack racket that is easier to swing than the 100s.
- Three weight options including a lighter 5U
- Head-heavy smash power with a more forgiving shaft than the 100s
- Damped, stable feel
- Retailers disagree on how stiff it is
- Slower than even-balance rackets in defence
