The Li-Ning AXFORCE 80 is a premium badminton racket crafted for competitive players who aim for top-level performance. Designed with a head-heavy balance, it provides powerful smashes and aggressive shot-making, making it ideal for attacking play. Its slim middle shaft, measuring 6.6 mm, offers enhanced flexibility and precision, allowing players to handle a variety of shots with ease. This racket incorporates multiple Li-Ning patented technologies to maximize performance on the court. The Wing Stabilizer and Box Wing Frame enhance stability and reduce unwanted vibrations, while the HDF Shock Absorption system minimizes strain on the wrist and arm. Additionally, FRTP Technology contributes to a lighter yet stronger frame, offering improved durability and responsiveness during intense gameplay.

With a lightweight 5U construction, the AXFORCE 80 is highly maneuverable, enabling faster reactions and smooth transitions between shots. The racket supports string tension up to 29 lbs, allowing players to customize stringing for optimal power and control. This combination of advanced materials and design makes the AXFORCE 80 a formidable choice for serious badminton enthusiasts.

Used by Chen Long and P.V. Sindhu

The AX Force 80 is engineered with a specially devised head-heavy swing weight, enabling players to successfully transfer the racquet weight into their shots, making them more offensive and lethal. It is the preferred racquet of Chen Long, Yuta Watanabe, Srikanth Kidambi, and P.V. Sindhu.

Super-Fast Repulsion with FRTP Technology

The racquet offers a super-fast response thanks to the FRTP Tech engineering, resulting in the racquet restoring to its original shape in no time by changing the shaft folding area and pushing the bending point.

Slim Flexible Shaft for Frontal Bend Performance

Featuring a slim middle flexible shaft of 6.6mm engineered with UHB Shaft technology, this racquet improves frontal bend performance, enhancing smash performance especially when hitting half smashes.

Balanced for Doubles and Quick Defense

Slightly more balanced and user-friendly than the AX Force 90 or 100, the AX Force 80 is the preferred choice for doubles players who need power but also need to defend quickly.
