Version · 40 optionsAxforce 80 2022Change

The Li-Ning Axforce 80 is an attacking racket with a heavy head and a 6.6 mm thin shaft with medium flexibility, linked to Olympic champion Chen Long. It measures 675 mm, and the 4U weighs 84 to 86 g with the balance point at 302 mm, taking up to 30 lbs. Technologies such as FRTP and the impact-absorption system make the smash strong without demanding as much from the arm. It is a powerful option and friendlier than stiff-shaft rackets, also available in 3U and 5U.

How the RR Score was calculated

CriterionWeightScore
Specs65%49
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.
