Li Ning AXFORCE 100 II Badminton Racket

Details

Li-Ning Axforce 100 II badminton racket – Professional Briefing: The Li Ning Axforce 100 II reconciles the seemingly conflicting goals of “heavier smashes” and “easier handling,” emerging as Li-Ning’s most finely tuned offensive flagship to date.

Positioning
“Evolved for total domination.” The Thunderbolt 100 II (model AYPV039) is Li-Ning’s 2025 flagship offensive racket, engineered for singles powerhouses and back-court doubles finishers who demand devastating smashes without sacrificing handling.
Key Technologies
• Ultra-thin box frame + 76-hole pattern + 8-shared grommets
– Top frame thickness reduced by 0.4 mm vs. gen-1, shifting balance 5-7 mm forward for 12 % higher swing momentum.
• 6.2 mm solid hyper-elastic shaft
– Toray M46 + T1100 high-modulus carbon, 8.5 % torsion-resistance gain for pin-point accuracy on consecutive smashes.
• Dual-damping system
– Polymer energy sheet + lightweight foam in the frame absorbs residual vibration, cutting arm fatigue during long matches.
