The new Yonex Nanoflare 800 Play Badminton Racket is based on the Yonex Nanoflare 800 Pro Racket, toned down to suit the needs of beginner players who want to use rackets similar to the pros. The Nanoflare 800 is perfectly suited for fast games where quick reflexes are required, making it ideal for high-level doubles play, for players who love being the aggressor close to the net. With a head-light balance, this racket can be whipped around with ease, so nothing can hold you back when defending smashing, or in flat rallies. The Super Slim Shaft used on this racket is Yonex's thinnest yet, vastly reducing air resistance and providing added feel. Combine this with the Sonic Flare system, which is strategically lined high-modulus graphite at the top and bottom of the frame, and you have a racket proven to produce high initial speeds upon hitting a shuttle.
