Nanoflare 555
LIGHTWEIGHT HIGH PERFORMANCE ATTACK RACKET FOR DEEP COURT POWER
New to the highly successful Nanoflare range the 555 is designed for players in either doubles or singles who prefer a stiff flex shaft but on a light headed frame. This enables the attacking player to have a very quick head pickup from the front of the court and a solid power base from the rear court.
The Yonex NanoFlare series badminton racket is a head-light balanced racket designed to generate power and increase swing speed while maintaining superb touch and maneuverability. Through the use of aero-dimensional (slim wide-body) design head frame and material with unique technology and construction, the NanoFlare racket helps players not only play nimbly but also generate power and increase shuttle acceleration allowing them to hit further.
Yonex achieves this breakthrough design by reimagining the frame design. The NANOFLARE series badminton rackets utilize the Sonic Flare System design, utilizing the latest in graphite technologies, such as TORAYCA(R) M40X, to create a stable yet highly repulsive head shape. Additionally, by designing a highly aero-dimensional shape built to compress and snap-back, Yonex created an ultra-light racket for players who demand agility and, yet, generate power which was not possible before in a head-light balanced racket.
SONIC FLARE SYSTEM Improved shot speeds by positioning high modulus graphite at the top and bottom of the frame. SUPER HMG graphite utilized at the top of the frame, and a highly strong yet elastic graphite, called TORAYCA(R) M40X, along the bottom greatly improves the stability of the frame and the repulsion performance of the racket.
AERO-DIMENSIONAL DESIGN The new Aero Frame is both highly aerodynamic, allowing for fast and easy swings, while maintaining a profile that allows the frame to compress on impact with the shuttle, and snap back, much like a trampoline, launching the shuttle from the face of the racquet.
NANOCELL NEO A resilient yet surprisingly flexible graphite material
ULTRA SLIM SHAFT Inserting NANOPREME into the racquet shaft ensures greater stability compared to conventional racquets. When bending and releasing two racquets under the same force, the Ultra Slim Long Shaft rebounds almost twice as far as a conventional racquet does in the same length of time (0.018 seconds). This equates to 10% greater stability compared with conventional racquets.
CONTROL SUPPORT CAP The control support cap provides an 88% wider flat surface compared with an ordinary racquet for easier gripping, fast follow-through and the sharpest maneuverability.
