Li-Ning Bladex-Sonar 3U / Bladex 500

This listing covers two different rackets from Li-Ning's Bladex range: the Bladex-Sonar, available here in 3U only, and the Bladex 500, available in 3U and 4U.

Both are head-light frames built for fast handling, but they take different approaches. The Bladex-Sonar runs a medium-flex shaft with a slim 6.6mm profile, tuned for quick reactions at the net and a speed-first, defensive game, and takes up to 29 lbs strung. The Bladex 500 runs a stiffer 6.8mm shaft, giving a more direct, precise response for players who want to counter-attack rather than just block and reset, and takes up to 28 lbs strung. Choose the Sonar for pure speed and maneuverability, and the 500 for a firmer feel with more control on the return.

Both suit intermediate to advanced players who want a head-light, fast-handling racket. Players looking for a head-heavy racket built around smash power should look at the Tectonic or AX Force ranges instead.
