A classic Yonex singles frame from the late 2000s with an even balance and a stiff shaft, favoured by many top players before the ArcSaber 11 replaced it. It gives tight control and good defence rather than raw smash power, so it suits players who win with placement and tempo.

  • Even balance and stiff shaft give precise placement and a steady face
  • Good defence and net play according to reviewers
  • Made in Japan with nanotube-reinforced graphite
  • Less power for heavy attacking than a head-heavy frame
  • Low 24 lb max tension
  • Discontinued; only old stock, limited-edition re-releases or second-hand
