Founded in Japan in 1946, Yonex has developed into a well-deserved leader in the badminton world today, and its stability and durability are its consistent impression in the hearts of badminton lovers. More than 80% of the world's badminton players use Yonex rackets, and at the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, Yonex signed players won all 24 medals in badminton.
 
YONEX focuses on the mid-to-high-end feather racket market, with a huge and complex model library, and among the YONEX mid-to-high-end products currently on sale on the market, according to the technical characteristics of the racket, it can be divided into 5 series: ASTROX Sky Axe, VOLTRIC Power, NANORAY Sharp Speed, ARC Bow and Arrow, and DOURA Double Blade.
 
The Sky Axe and Power series are typical offensive rackets, suitable for professional offensive players with good upper body strength, with a hard head and precise ball control. It took only one year for Japan's Kento Momota to jump from No. 282 in the men's singles world to No. 1 in the world, and it was Yonex's Sky Axe series of racquets that used innovative new dimensional materials to keep the mid bar soft when applying power quickly, and quickly rebound explosive energy at the moment of killing. Yonex's VT-LDF for Lin Dan and Lee Chong Wei's VT-ZF2 (second brother-in-law) belong to the WEINIG series, which is equipped with YONEX's exclusive POWER triangle system and slim mid-stick technology, which delays the deceleration of the badminton flight and ensures that the smash effect is powerful and heavy.
 
The bow and double-edged series are both good in smashes and ball control. The bow and arrow series adopts a fluid cassette frame design, which reduces the air resistance when swinging the racket and makes the ball faster. The double-edged series adopts a double-sided heterosexual frame design, which combines the advantages of both traditional cassette frames and air frames: the large area of the cassette frame ensures the control of the ball, and the air frame provides a faster return speed. These two series of badminton rackets are balanced offensive and defensive rackets, suitable for badminton enthusiasts who are well-rounded or often play doubles. The classic ARC-10 (Bow and Arrow 10) has been selling well since its launch in 08, and the Bow 10 and its upgraded version of the Bow 11 are still rare and sought-after goods on major e-commerce platforms.
 
In addition to the general adult product line, Yonex has also developed the JUNIOR series rackets specifically for teenagers, considering the strength and arm length of children, the length of part of the series of rackets is only 53cm (the standard is 66cm), the design of the short racket body makes it easier for teenagers to get started, the series of rackets is positioned as an entry-level, the price is generally below 400 yuan, although it is not the main product line of Yonex, but if you want to buy a racket designed for children, this may be one of the few options on the market.
 
Yonex's overall positioning is more inclined to professionals, and the price is mostly more than 1,000 yuan, so it is a copycat "darling" in China, and you can't be greedy for cheap when buying; On the other hand, although Yonex also produces entry-level adult rackets, this type of product is generally cost-effective, and considering other brands at the same price, it is often possible to buy rackets with better configuration and better feel.
