Racket Specifications
Balance & Flex Profile
The Hundred Nuclear 78 is a professional-grade 5U badminton racket for advanced players who want fast reactions, lightweight handling and pinpoint accuracy. Hyperlight Carbon Fibre construction and a Nano-Power Frame System deliver powerful performance without bulk, giving you the edge in fast rallies and counter-attacks.
Key Features
- Hyperlight Carbon Fibre construction – next-gen carbon fibre gives this 78g frame an outstanding strength-to-weight ratio, so you can move faster while keeping control and stability on impact.
- Ultra-lightweight 5U frame (78g) – a featherlight build for rapid swing speed and quick manoeuvring, ideal for doubles and fast net exchanges.
- Nano-Power Frame System – nano-technology enhances frame toughness and spreads stress evenly across the head for a larger, more consistent sweet spot, even at high string tensions.
- Head-heavy balance – adds momentum and follow-through to smashes and clears, making power easier to generate without relying solely on physical force.
- Flexible shaft – whip-like acceleration, with enhanced shuttle repulsion and smooth energy transfer on every swing.
- Supports high tension – up to 32 lbs – for tight stringing preferences, giving better control, sharper responsiveness and more touch.
Performance Overview
The Nuclear 78 combines lightweight handling with attacking precision. The head-heavy balance and flexible shaft help put weight behind smashes and clears, while the 78g frame stays fast in defence and at the net. Whether you are dictating the pace or countering under pressure, it gives you the tools to control the rally.
Who Is It For?
Professional and advanced players who thrive on speed, timing and attacking agility, especially doubles players and those who like a high string tension.
