They'll never see it coming.

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.

Features:

AERO Frame: Smoother contours throughout the racquet head for less wind resistance and extra racquet speed.

ISOMETRIC: Developed over 30 years ago, the ISOMETRIC design increases the sweet spot by 7%. Compared to a conventional round frame, a square-shaped ISOMETRIC racquet generates a larger sweet spot by optimizing the intersection of the main and cross strings.

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

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

BUYING GUIDE

Badminton Rackets Buying Guide

The key question to ask firstly is what style of player are you, or what type of player do you want to become?

  1. Power Attacking
  2. All Round
  3. Fast Reactions to Rallies
  4. Control and Touch, by moving players around the court to create space

As a general guide for your playing style below is the kind of racket you'll want to look at purchasing:

Playing Style Racket Balance Racket Flexibility Racket Weight
Power Attacking Head Heavy Stiff 85g – 89g (3U)
All Round Balanced Medium 80g – 84g (4U)
Speed & Fast Reactions Head Light Medium 79g or below (5U and up)
Control & Touch Head Light Hi Flex 79g or below (5U and up)


In simple terms is means this:
Player with Explosive Backswing Hitting = Stiffer Shaft needed as it'll unload faster for more power.
Player with Slower Backswing Hitting = More Flexible Shaft needed so that it'll unload fully at impact.

If you're still unsure what to choose for yourself, we'd recommend going for a medium flex badminton racket to minimise the chances of choosing incorrectly what's right for you.

Weight:

Weight can make a real difference to reaction speeds, and power behind the hit of a shuttle. Too light a racket and it won't go far or powerful enough. However too heavy a racket and you'll find you'll be reacting too slow in fast flat rallies, where reaction speed is everything.:

Most rackets are weighted around 3U (85-89g) or 4U (80-84g), this is because it's a good weight balance for players to hit hard and also be able to react fast too.:

Typically singles players will use heavier rackets 3U (85-89g), this provides the player with more stability and accuracy, with a little more weight for power behind it, without compromising on racket speed too much, as quick racket head speed isn't needed as much in the singles game:

Doubles players however will usually want lighter rackets, the most popular weight for this being 4U (80-84g), this is because the Badminton Racket will offer more speed and quicker reactions in around the net and for defence against smashes.:

Racket Strings Used & Tension:

Again like the grip, this is customisable on any racket. However do look out for racket tension ranges on the product as this could potentially limit your ability to have the racket strung at a desired tension.:

For a full breakdown on strings and tensions, see our buying guide specifically on this.:

To put it simply however, if you're unsure what to choose when buying a racket you like, either go for the “Original Strings” option or “Stringers Professional Decision” for which we'll choose the string that best suits getting the maximum performance out of the racket for you.:

Ordered Delivered Late & Incomplete

Initially I had ordered shoes in my order but they were out of stock. Upon contact by the CR team I chose a different pair of shoes bt they were out of stock as well. This delayed my order and couldn’t order the shoes that I spent time on researching.

Nice fast racquet, certainly very stiff

I previously owned the Nanoflare 700 which I liked but is sadly no longer in production, so I thought it was safe to buy this Nanoflare 800 Tour. It's a fast, light racquet and I feel like it's got very precise control, however it is the stiffest racquet I've owned, and I feel like this does put additional strain on your joints (wrist and elbow) compared to a more forgiving racquet, and I wasn't expecting that.

Nanoflare 800 Game

I’m an intermediate player and have been using my previous Yonex Arcsabre for a few years with some restringing. As my game has developed I wanted to see if a different style of racquet would help. The description on the BHQ site makes it easy to narrow down the choice of frame for playing style. I am very pleased with the racket - I find it faster to manoeuvre and it is helping the power I generate for smashes and clears. A good investment - thanks!

Power with light head balance perfection

top class light headed racket.
did click and collect so was able to see and get the feel of the frame to ensure it would fulfill my requirements. a good choice of stringing options and fast ordering process. very knowledgeable staff that were able to assist me. Having played with it I have ordered more - really improved my game.

A great racquet once I got used to it and an improvement on my Yonex Voltric. With 26lbs tension the shuttle really pings off yet there is still good control.

Good beginner's racket

I chose this racket because of the light head weight. It is manoeuvrable so can change quickly from forward to backhand shots. The only downside is losing a bit of racket generated power for playing clears.

Good Racket

Happy with the purchase. I have given 4 star as the delivery was one day late and the string broke after playing second or third game. The string used was Exbolt 68 with 27lb Tension. The racket is quite good for smash and back court too even it's head light racket.

Perfect for what I needed

Getting back into badminton after 30 years and needed a lightweight, evenly balanced, inexpensive all-rounder. Perfect for what I needed. Not the cheapest, but very reasonable.

Suitable for the more experienced player

Nice light head with tight but not too tight strings. Will suit a wide range of players that enjoy their game and having mastered a range of technical aspects have progressed beyond intermediate yet do not aspire to pro level.
