Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Yonex Nanoray Light 18i suitable for beginners? +
Yes. The Nanoray Light 18i is one of Yonex favourite beginner racquets. Its ultra-lightweight frame reduces arm fatigue and the flexible shaft makes power generation easy even without refined technique.
What does head-light balance mean? +
Head-light balance means the weight is distributed toward the handle rather than the head. This makes the racquet faster to manoeuvre, ideal for beginners and for net play and defensive shots.
Can I use the Nanoray Light 18i for competitive club play? +
It is primarily designed for beginners and casual play. If you are playing at intermediate club level or above, the Yonex Astrox Lite 27i offers more power and precision.
