Li-Ning 3D Calibar X Combat Badminton Racket – 85g Charcoal/Blue, Head-Heavy

Description

The Li-Ning 3D Calibar X Combat is a head-heavy badminton racket engineered for aggressive backcourt players who want maximum smashing power without losing swing speed. Weighing 85g in the 3U class with a higher balance point, it puts extra mass behind your overhead shots while its aerodynamic frame keeps the racket fast through the air. Supplied unstrung, it lets you string to your own preference, making it a strong pick for intermediate to advanced players with an offensive game.

HEAD-HEAVY BALANCE FOR POWER SMASHES

This is a Combat series racket, which means a heavier head and a higher balance point at around 302mm. That extra head mass adds momentum through the shuttle on smashes and clears, helping you hit harder and deeper. Combined with the flexible shaft, this head heavy badminton racket rewards aggressive players who want absolute power on their attacking shots.

3D CALIBAR AERODYNAMIC FRAME

The defining feature is the 3D Calibar technology, a high-tech geometric frame design that significantly reduces air resistance. Despite the head-heavy weight, the aerodynamic shaping cuts through the air faster than traditional head-heavy frames, giving higher swing speeds for stronger smashes. This is what lets the racket combine power with speed rather than forcing a choice between them.

TB NANO AND AEROTEC BEAM SYSTEM

The frame combines TB Nano binding with the Aerotec Beam System. The nanometer technology bonds carbon fiber and resin tightly for elasticity, stability, and durability on every strike, while the Aerotec Beam System lowers the drag coefficient for faster swings all the way through the stroke. Together they give the racket its stable, fast, and durable character.

CARBON FIBRE CONSTRUCTION

Built from high-strength carbon fibre and reinforced with MPCF technology, which layers multiple carbon fibers for added intensity, the frame stays durable and stable through intense play. The Dynamic Optimum Frame design expands the sweet spot, giving more accuracy and confidence on off-center hits, while the flexible shaft helps generate power on smashes and quick repulsion on returns.

WHO THIS RACKET IS FOR

The Li-Ning 3D Calibar X Combat suits intermediate to advanced players who play an aggressive, power-focused style. Backcourt singles players who rely on heavy smashes and attacking doubles players will both benefit from the head-heavy power and fast frame. It is best for players who already have the timing and wrist strength to make the most of a head-heavy, power-oriented racket.
