Badminton Yonex

Yonex is a worldwide leader in badminton technology and many top players on the international circuit today, choose to play with Yonex equipment.  The company has been around since 1946, and its head office is stationed intokyo, Japan.  It has offices in the United States. the UK, Taiwan, Germany and Canada.  They are major sponsor to some of the biggest tournaments on the International tour: Yonex Japan Open, Yonex Sunrise India Open, Yonex All-England Championships among many more.

Badminton Yonex Technology:  

Badminton is the fastest racket sport in the world and so Yonex has designed rackets with the technology of speed in mind.  Fullerene technology was developed in2005 with the nanospeed rackets, and to follow it up  X-Fullerene technology was developed in 2009 in conjunction with Nanoscience, which contains Fullerene.  The newest model provides more repulsion power and frame stability.  The newest development has 4 radial ribs  by manipulating Fullerene molecules to unite carbon atoms into a soccer ball structure.more repulsion power and frame stability. "The X-Fullerene is used in the resin which bonds the Carbon fibers and creating the cross-link construction. The tenfold increase in binding force made it possible to create 5 % higher repulsion power and 15% greater stability."  Light Feel Carbon takes elastic particles and fuses them with regular carbon fibers.  It is then combined with  CS carbon nanotubes to deliver more control and power from the frame.  Elastic Ti uses the "high elasticity needed for structural high strength and a powerful rebound effect."  These rackets stretch and recover more quickly, so get get maximum effort from each swing.  Nanoscience provides a molecular bond of the fullerene and carbon nano-particles resulting in a lighter, stronger and more stable racket.  Cup-Stack Carbon Nanotube , " resembles multi layered cups uniformly stacked together providing increased durability and improved flexibility."  The Power Armor System, uses titanium and reduces the edge of the frame top of the racket for greater control and less distortion.  Control Support Cap, reduces the shock of off center hits and widens the sweet spot.   Ultra PEF or Ultra Poly Ethylene Fiber has a very high shock absorption. The material is light enough to float on water, and the 1 inch across is able to hang up to about 20 tons.  Super HMG uses high molecule graphite to produce a high repulsion power  The new grommet system and shockless grommet system increase durability, and reduce the shock at impact.  The Muscle Power Frame eliminates stress load and fatigue through friction created at contact. The Isometric square head shape provides for more consistency and accuracy.  Ultimum Ti  is molded into the racket which stores energy on impact and releases it in a "snap-back" action for full energy.  Titanium Mesh resists the twisting forces for more stability and head speed.   "The Aero-Box Vari Frame reduces wind drag compared with a standard air-flow pattern, maximizing the power of the swing and the transfer of energy to the shuttle."  The MEGA frame takes the isometric square head even further, enlarging the sweet spot 34% more.  The MEGA G2 Frame, " The top right and left part of the frame are made to resemble to the cross-sectional shape of the grooves of a girder. Girder Grooves Frame increases the frame stability.  The New Built In T-Joint is lightweight, built of epoxy resin enhancing the level of quality and performance.  The LSC or Low Shock for
Comfort technology minimizes shock for arm comfort, and impact is reduced by 15%.  The Yonex Delta Power Frame uses aerodynamic Shape and Box Shape which creates stability to the face without sacrificing power.
Badminton Yonex has seven different series of badminton rackets: Nanospeed Series, Arcsaber Series, Armortec Series, Muscle Power Series,Carbonex Series, Isometric Series and Basic Series.  Along with rackets Yonex badminton is a leader in strings, shuttles, shoes, clothing, and bags.
