Yonex Duora 8XP

Yonex is proud to announce the launch of a new badminton racquet in the Duora series, the “DUORA 8XP,” targeting hard hitters who want to maximize their power.

DUORA’s cutting edge technology places two unique frame shapes into one revolutionary racquet.  Command the court with powerful forehands and equally fast backhands.  In addition the new DUORA 8XP supports the higher string tensions (up to 35lb) that hard hitters and players seeking maximum power demand. The maximum repulsion achieved from the higher tensions produces powerful drives, especially in offensive plays from mid-court.

Designed to withstand deformation from high string tensions

In order to reduce the stress on the frame from the higher than average string tensions, the DUORA 8XP features multi-direction carbon fibers that increase the stiffness of the frame, dispersing stress.

VIBSLAYER CARBON: Reduce the impact on the arm by dampening vibration instantly

“VIBSLAYER CARBON” material is utilized throughout the entire frame, combining shock absorption with maintaining maximum power. Manufactured with ultra-thin layers of shock-absorbing material between layers of carbon, players experience the same level of repulsion power generated by normal carbon with greatly reduced shock impact, cutting down on fatigue and stress on the body.
