Introducing the Tornado Tron Pro badminton rack🏸Equipped with Xenecore Head Frame and inside T Joint, this racket provides unmatched stability and durability for your intense games. The Isometric Head Frame with groove on the top and side part ensures precision and power in every shot
The racket scores a solid 4.4 out of 5. While the build quality is decent, it doesn't quite measure up to models like the Felet TJ 1000. A few clashes revealed some lower-quality aspects of the frame, particularly with the paint chipping off. However, the racket's aesthetics are strikingly beautiful, making it a standout in terms of appearance.
In terms of performance, this racket excels in the front court. Its exceptional repulsion off the frame has significantly improved my ability to finish rallies, even with a backhand, in the front and mid court. The control at the net is outstanding, and the racket offers excellent speed, enabling fast reactions, particularly in overhead shots at the front court. Drives and clears are exceptional.
Defensively, the racket performs well in pushing the shuttle away, offering solid defensive capabilities in clearing shots. However, it falls short when it comes to blocking smashes with sharp, close-to-the-net returns, as it tends to push the shuttle further than intended. The racket feels light in hand, and while you can sense the head's presence if you hold it loosely, it lacks the stability found in models like the JPX series. This may make it slightly less reliable in tight defensive plays.
One of the standout features is its larger sweet spot, which I suspect is due to the 80 grommet pattern or the frame design. Unlike many modern rackets that opt for newer frame designs for speed, this model retains a traditional box frame yet doesn't feel sluggish in any way. It maintains a good balance between power and speed.
This racket pairs exceptionally well with performance strings like the 66 Ultimax or Aerobite. However, it does have its limitations in the back court. While it offers a solid smash, the shuttle tends to slow down when hitting from deep in the court, making it challenging to finish rallies from the backline. On the positive side, it offers the ability to smash multiple times continuously without making errors, unlike other rackets where you might need to switch to a drop or clear after one or two smashes due to being out of position.
This racket is excellent for both singles and doubles play. You can literally manipulate the pace of the rally in singles with this.
Overall, this racket is a formidable option for players who value control, speed, and repulsion.
Racket feels a lot like a venom I, easier to play. Even If it's lighter, feel like the smashes are more powerful, may be more whiping effect. Doesn't feel flexible to me, more medium flex. At the net.... amazing, as you can expect with the weight. Really pleased with the value for money. Strings are rubbish, needs re stringing.
Received the racket faster than I thought, very happy and you guys are very helpful with my inquiries. Thank you
Had it for a month now to give it a chance and I'm very happy with it. Smash is noticeably better and I've made less unforced errors. Enjoying the racket and would recommend.
I use it about 6 months. Few days ago I bought another one.
It is flexible, good for defence and drives, easy clears and respectable smash.
T7 provides very soft filing and has stable good control.
Forgiving for wrist and elbow.
The T-shirt is very nice material and looks good. We got XL size and it is not a usual European sizing, its more like size M in Europe. Just when you ordering go up 1 or 2 sizes. Happy with it overall
Long story short.
Excellent mobility, I definitely noticed how fast it goes thru air. The feeling as the racket accelerates itself during the swing but you can stop any moment and change the direction.
Due to it fast, it affects power of smashes with a lovely sound of cutting air and the hit. I can say even from the sound, my smashes became faster/stronger.
Feels comfortable to play, absolute zero tiredness in the arm after playing 3 hours., no pain in wrist or shoulder at all.
It has a bit different design, narrow head etc., so you got to give it a time to adapt to it. For example, playing close to the net, some defensive hits or repulsion will feel different. Overall it's not a problem, you'll still feel fun and comfortable to play, but need to keep it in mind. 1-2 sessions should fix that.
That's the racket I wanted, it feels right, it feels fun and adjusted for every type of play.
And one more thing. The cost from this site is a bit cheaper (delivery + UK tax) than buying it from original company from Taiwan. And I'm living in Bangkok. WHAT?? Jnice what's happened ? :D
Thank you guys for making a review of that racket and show it out for people, otherwise I'd buy some "advertised well" yonex or victor.
All the best.
Only used twice so far at the club I play at and so far impressed especially for the price! It's a good racket can only compare against my 10 year old cartoon firblade which was a top level racket back then costing £150 and I feel this racket has an edge on that for £50 I think it's a bargain. Just not sure on the strings as used to yonex, so may get this changed.
Shuttles took over 3 weeks to arrive. Free gifts were offered on checkout however they were not packed in the order. Customer services not particularly helpful, just defensive.
Hello Henry,

Im sure you can appreciate we cant just send a random size T-Shirt to you that may not fit.
