• Namd Material - A world’s-first, new dimension graphite material, Namd, which greatly improves the adhesion of the graphite fibers and resin by attaching nanomaterial directly to the graphite fiber. In high performance racquets, it is common to combine nanomaterials with resin that connects graphite fibers, but in Namd, nanomaterials are directly adhered to the graphite fibers and resin is greatly increased. This major improvement produces a shaft that flexes and stores energy, delivering explosive force on impact with the shuttle.
• New Full Frame Namd - AX99 has adopted NAMD in the entire body of the racquet, including the Frame, doubling contact time with the shuttle, resulting in an explosive shot as the racquet returns from Flexed to straight at the end of the swing.
• Rotational Generator System - The counter balanced head adapts to each shot, helping you to control the drive and attack the opposition with increased acceleration, steeper angle and power on the smash.
