A very flexible, light-feeling racket with a larger-feeling sweet spot, built for players who want easy clears and quick hands rather than raw stiffness. Yonex positions it as a premium racket for players of intermediate to advanced ability who prefer touch to power.

  • Hi-Flex shaft makes clears and backhand lifts easy
  • Light head-light handling for fast drives and defence
  • Premium Japanese build and a forgiving sweet spot
  • String tension limit is low (17-22 lb)
  • Soft shaft is imprecise for hard hitters
