The Air-Force 77 G3 is the third generation of the Air-Force line, Li-Ning's ultralight rackets. The number indicates the weight: 77 g (5U). It has a heavy head, a 7 mm flexible shaft, high-quality carbon graphite, Dynamic Optimum frame and Aerotec Beam system, with maximum tension of 30 lbs. It is aimed at the offensive-minded intermediate: it accelerates easily, defends well in doubles and delivers reasonable smashes for its weight. Sister versions of 78, 79 and 80 g exist for those who want a bit more mass.

How the RR Score was calculated

CriterionWeightScore
Specs65%45
Approval from players35%60

The RR Score is not yet a precise figure. It summarizes the data we have today (specs and reviews) and changes as more information comes in. A low score does not mean the racquet is bad and does not reflect its technical quality: often it is just missing data or reviews. The specs combine several sources and may have discrepancies: check the manufacturer's website and the store where you buy.

Buyer reviews

Average of the ratings given at each store, weighted by how many reviews each one has.

Store ratings may reflect the store experience (shipping, service), not only the racquet.
