The Nanoflare 1000Z, released in June 2023, is Yonex's most aggressive speed racket: light head, extra stiff shaft and compact frame with Nanometric DR, M40X and EX-Hyper MG. The 4U weighs 83 g on average, measures 675 mm and accepts 20 to 28 lbs. The result is a very fast swing with a quick-exit smash, plus great reaction on defense. The stiffness demands technique: those with a slow arm lose power and comfort.

How the RR Score was calculated

CriterionWeightScore
Specs65%62
Approval from players35%65

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.
