  • Nanocell NEO: A resilient yet surprisingly flexible graphite material.

  • Aero Frame: Smoother contours throughout the racket head for less wind resistance and extra racket speed.

  • Isometric™: Square shaped head increases the size of your sweet spot by optimising the intersection of the main and cross strings.

  • Solid Feel Core: The built-in solid feel core cuts harmful miscellaneous vibration at impact. Solid feel core is carried in all rackets manufactured in Japan.

  • Sonic Flare System: Max Acceleration. The revolutionary new graphite material TORAYCAR M40X and SUPER HMG provide unrivalled power and stability for maximum shuttle acceleration.

  • Super Slim Shaft: The slimmest racket ever produced by YONEX vastly reduces air resistance whilst providing maximum feel.

  • Control Support CAP: The control support cap provides an 88% wider flat surface compared with an ordinary racket for easier gripping, fast follow-through, and the sharpest manoeuvrability.

  • REXIS Shaft: A high-performance shaft precisely designed with an original Yonex moulding technique. Improves shot performance and dominates the game.

  • Built-in T-Joint: Increases strength between the frame and shaft eliminating head twist for more control.

  • EX-HMG: Provides sharper power for all your shots.

Badminton racket grips/sizes should be big enough so that when holding the handle correctly (like shaking someone’s hand), the tip of your ring finger shouldn't touch your palm.

These days, most manufacturers are making rackets in a single size, so if you find the grip is too thin then you could apply an overgrip to the handle until you find a grip size/weight that you’re comfortable with.

Badminton racket sizes made simple:

  • 3u5 = 85-89g racket weight, 83mm circumferential grip size.

  • 4u5 = 80-84g racket weight, 83mm circumferential grip size.

Yonex Nanoflare 500 Badminton Racket - Matte Black Reviews

5.0/5 based on 3 customer reviews

    Easy to handle. Enjoy my double players game with speed and precise maneuver. Made good improvement for the past 6 months with this buddy. Nice crisp feeling with BG80Power 26lbs. Slightly less killing power when smashing given it is a light headed racquet. Doesn't bother me too much as I enjoy skill playing games.

    Great doubles racket.

    Nanoflare 500 is a beauty. Very fast swing, deep into the bottom line. With BG80P string, smash is amazing as well. Highly Recommend.
