There are a lot of options today, with most using forms of graphite. A strong material that is also flexible, this gives the racket a certain agility. The material is high quality as are the strings. The handle has a soft rubberised coating that allows for better grip.

Different rackets from Yonex have variations in weight and flexibility. Some players like heavier rackets and others prefer lighter ones. There is a trade-off between power and agility between the different weights. One can choose based on their style of playing. 

One can get all kinds of colour mixes from the Yonex badminton racket range, although colour is not as important as other factors but it is a small way to have a personalised look. The T-joint is built-in, making the racket a one-piece which improves the strength of the racket making it last longer.

String tension is recommended based on what the specific material of every racket is, this should be followed so the shape of the head does not get affected.
