Yonex Nanoflare 700 Pro Badminton Racket

The Yonex Nanoflare 700 Pro (2nd Generation) is a high-end, tournament-grade masterpiece engineered to redefine the capabilities of head-light speed racquets. Famously used on the global circuit by elite world champions like Seo Seung Jae and Arisa Higashino, this Made in Japan flagship model sports a premium Midnight Purple cosmic twilight aesthetic.

While ultra-stiff speed frames like the Nanoflare 800 Pro or 1000Z are highly demanding and physically punishing, the Nanoflare 700 Pro is celebrated as the most effortless, user-friendly, and popular model in the Pro series. It beautifully pairs blinding head-light defensive agility with an elastic, medium-flex shaft that makes launching deep baseline clears feel completely natural.

Premium Technologies & Performance Profile

The Nanoflare 700 Pro acts as a defensive shield and an effortless clearing tool, utilizing next-generation dampening layers to offer a plush, velvety hitting sensation.

1. Effortless Clear Generation & Medium Flex (10/10 Comfort): The defining characteristic of the 700 Pro is how easy it is to extract deep back-court power. The medium shaft bends easily during long rallies, acting like an active spring to load and whip the shuttle baseline-to-baseline. This makes it exceptionally forgiving when you are caught out of position and forced to clear defensively under heavy pressure.
2. The SERVO FILTER Vibration Absorption: Unique to this generation, Yonex integrated a specialized Servo Filter film between the carbon graphite layers of the frame and shaft. This advanced material filters out unnecessary, harsh structural shock six times faster than graphite alone, delivering a buttery-smooth, incredibly comfortable feel that actively protects your wrist, elbow, and shoulder.
3. Wide Profile AERO Frame & Stability: To boost offensive performance without losing head-light speed, the racquet features a unique Wide Profile Frame. This structural choice drastically cuts down air resistance during high-speed defensive blocks and flat drive exchanges, while reinforcing the head against side-to-side twisting (torsion) for precise, stable shot-placement.
4. Enhanced Sonic Flare System with Torayca® M40X: The head is meticulously mapped using premium materials. The upper frame features high-repulsion EX-HYPER MG graphite to snap the shuttle off the string bed, while the base relies on ultra-strong, elastic M40X carbon fiber to maximize rebound acceleration on rapid-fire mid-court drives.

Best Suited For

1. Competitive Doubles & Mixed Doubles Specialists: Absolute perfection for the doubles player who thrives on quick reflex counter-deflections, rapid driving rallies, and clinical intercepting pushes across the net tape.
2. Advanced Amateurs Seeking Comfort: Ideal for high-level club or tournament players who love the speed of the Nanoflare series but find the rigid stiffness of the 800 Pro or 1000Z too exhausting or demanding over long tournament days.
3. Tactical Counter-Attackers: Perfect for players who win through rhythm, extreme defensive consistency, and out-maneuvering opponents across all four corners rather than trying to hit a single, high-risk power smash.

Custom Stringing Recommendation: To seamlessly preserve the smooth, comfortable pocketing feel while boosting its flat drive repulsion, string the Nanoflare 700 Pro with Yonex Exbolt 65 or BG66 Ultimax at 24 to 26 lbs. If you want crisp slicing bite at the net, a hybrid layout like Yonex Aerobite pairs beautifully with this frame.
