Li-Ning Axforce 70 Badminton Racket
Li-Ning Axforce 70 Badminton Racket is an attacking badminton racket designed for players who want easy power, steep smashes and strong rear-court penetration. Built with a head-heavy balance and a slim 6.6mm shaft, it delivers fast acceleration through the hitting zone while maintaining solid shuttle hold for improved control. The Dynamic Optimum Frame and carbon fibre construction help create a larger effective sweet spot and more stable impact on aggressive shots.
Available in 4U and 5U weight classes, the Axforce 70 suits intermediate to advanced players seeking a power-focused frame that remains manoeuvrable enough for doubles defence and quick exchanges at the net.
Staff Pro Review
The Axforce 70 sits nicely in Li-Ning's power range for players who want attacking performance without the demanding stiffness of top-end rackets. The head-heavy setup gives excellent smash weight, while the flexible-to-medium shaft helps generate power more easily, making it a strong option for improving offensive players.

FAQs
Q: Does the 6.6mm shaft make a noticeable difference?
A: Yes, the thinner shaft cuts air resistance and helps the racket recover faster, especially during rapid doubles exchanges.

A: Yes. Although power-focused, the lighter 5U version offers strong manoeuvrability for fast defensive reactions and drives.
Q: What type of player benefits most from the head-heavy balance?
