Yonex Nanoflare Nextage - Overview & Performance Highlights
The Yonex Nanoflare Nextage (item code NF-NT) is designed for agile players who prioritise fast racquet handling, manoeuvrability and responsive play. According to Yonex's official page, it features a medium flex shaft.
It is offered in a variant of 4U (G5) with a maximum stringing tension of 20-28 lbs.
Key design features include a frame composed of HT Graphite and Nanocell NEO, a built-in T-Joint, and a length extension of 10 mm over standard which increases shuttle hold and leverage.
Although the official Yonex spec does not explicitly state the balance classification, the racquet is marketed under the “speed / manoeuvrability” Nanoflare category, and therefore the balance has been recorded here as headLight.
