Li-Ning Ignite 8 5U Pearl White / Blue Badminton Racket (Prestrung)
A light, head-heavy attacking racket that comes strung and ready to play. The Li-Ning Ignite 8 (AYPT777-50) pairs a 304 mm balance point with a slim, flexible 7 mm shaft, so lighter and improving players can hit powerful clears and smashes without a heavy frame. This listing is the 5U (75-79.9g), G6 grip version in Pearl White / Blue, factory prestrung.
Why Players Choose the Ignite 8
Ultralite carbon graphite frame: Japanese carbon graphite keeps the racket light while the head-heavy balance adds weight to every attacking shot.
Nano Power frame: a nanomaterial frame and shaft cut weight without losing strength, helping you generate racket-head speed.
AeroTec Beam system: a compressed-groove frame profile for better accuracy and control.
Dynamic Optimum Frame: an enlarged sweet spot keeps repulsion and control on off-centre hits.
