Li-Ning AxForce Cannon (White) Badminton Racket

Li-Ning AxForce Cannon (White)

The powerful precision of the Cannon smash.

Built with standard modulus carbon fibre and a flexible tensile profile, the AxForce Cannon loads up easily and gives back hard. The frame design puts weight behind the smash while the shaft stays forgiving enough to defend with. This is the 5U build — the lightest weight the Cannon comes in.

HEAD-HEAVY ATTACKING BALANCE

Weight sits forward so your smash carries mass into the shuttle. You feel the head load up on the backswing and release through contact — and at 5U it gets there faster.

FLEXIBLE 7.0MM SHAFT

A more forgiving shaft than the flagship AxForce rackets, which makes it far easier to generate power without perfect timing. It also helps on defence — the shaft does some of the work when you're stretched.

DYNAMIC OPTIMUM FRAME

Frame geometry tuned for a broader sweet spot. Off-centre hits stay playable instead of dying on the string bed.

BUILT TO LAST

The carbon layup and frame design are specified for service life, not just peak performance. A sensible choice if the racket is going to see a lot of court time.

WHY 5U

At 75–79g this is the easiest Cannon to swing. Same head-heavy attacking character as the 4U, just quicker in the hand — good for juniors, smaller-framed players, and anyone who wants faster reactions at the net without giving up smash weight.

Also available in 4U (Black and Light Gauze Green), which is heavier and takes up to 29 lbs.

WHO IT'S FOR
