Li Ning Storm series badminton rackets are a series of badminton rackets with price positioned in the mid-range and ultra-light as the main selling point. This series not only has the highest cost-effectiveness and the highest durability in ultra-light taps, but also has extremely high playability.
Take the founder of the Storm series, Storm 300 as an example:
"Storm 300 = high cost performance + 74g ultra-light + integrated cone cover + lightweight offensive parameters"
The Storm 300, which was born in 2013, is definitely the king of super-light pat. In 2013, light offensive rackets were not as popular as they are now, and the integrated cone cover was also an absolute selling point now. The 74g ultra-light was the top level in the industry at that time. In the ultra-pat, Storm 300 is a collision-resistant artifact in the ultra-pat, overturning the empirical law of "super-crunchy pat".
For most brands, a series has only been played for ten years, and the Storm series has been more than four years, which is considered to be a thirty year. In such a cycle, all kinds of propaganda of shrews are inevitably fucked by consumers. Is it the new shrews that will promote the market? Or is it a good idea to be good at physical nature?
Li Ning Storm Series 72 (WS 72) is the answer given by Li Ning’s badminton department.

WS 72 painting is very childlike, and the bright color contrast may not be pleasing enough, but it is the most eye-catching on the field. As far as I see, WS 72 is very suitable for the beautiful uncle who likes the cute color difference and the cute young loli who is already very cute. The introverted and sexy author is a little resistant to such a color scheme.
Unlike the low-end version of the national team series racket like 80TD\80TF, WS 72 has a little close to the new color N72 in terms of painting style, and has no connection with the technology platform. 72 does not represent the inheritance of famous blood, but the affirmation of its super light ability (72g). The overall weight of 72g is not the top in the industry at present, but the 72g can still withstand 30 pounds of threading tension under ultra-light. The durability of the WS72 should be the best among ultra-light taps.
"Box-type frame + 72-hole line bed", this combination has produced many classic rackets with excellent stability and sweetness and excellent sweetness in . WS 72 also adopts this seemingly conservative but actually pragmatic combination. In addition, WS 72 uses a 64-hole long trough to protect the ball line and reduce wind resistance. Perhaps in order to improve strength, the WS 72 frame is wider than the general box frame and looks a bit "cumbersome", but in actual use, the extremely low 72g shot load can bring very fast swing speed, and the impact of wind resistance can be completely ignored.
In addition to the weight of 72g, the most eye-catching WS 72 is the lower body... in the handle...
WS 72 uses a carbon handle with a very novel structure. Unlike the integrated carbon handle and resin-carbon handle that have appeared before, the WS 72's cone cover is a normal plastic cone cover, and the handle is replaced with a double-layer carbon handle filled with foam material.
All along, ultra-light hard rod rackets have a disadvantage of hitting - shock hands. The main reason is that the ultra-light pat head is too small and it is more likely to be shaken by the impact of when hitting . In actual experience, the carbon-foaming agent-carbon tap handle of WS 72 has solved the problem of shock hands well. The carbon handle that will not be eroded by sweat is a blessing for the players with heavy sweat. However, there is also a small problem during use. At the moment of hitting the ball, there is a slight shaking between the mid-rod and the slap handle. It is speculated that it should be caused by the deformation of the buffer material, so the shaking is very small, and the impact is not great during use.

In terms of hitting feeling, the overall hitting feeling of WS 72 is relatively crisp, with a clear and rapid closing rebound feeling in the sweet area. The mid rod hardness is hard, excellent elasticity and explosive power.
During the process of pulling up the far, WS 72 showed excellent direction and stability, and it bounced back quickly.The rhythm of the hitting will not be slowed down due to the slow rebound, resulting in blurred direction; nor will it be easy to hit the ball because it cannot cover the ball and excessively shorten the space for force, which makes the shot easy to hit and not be able to hit the ball accurately.
In the batting experience, when the hitting point is in the WS 72 sweet area, the frame shaking is much lower than the ultra-light tap, and can be flush with the 4U balanced beat. However, when the hitting the ball leaves the center line of the racket and hits the non-sweet area, the frame will have obvious chaotic vibrations, which means that the fault tolerance rate of WS72 is still relatively low. WS 72 can improve the sensitivity of your hitting feedback, but it will also amplify your unnecessary mistakes.
The midfield does not need to rely on the inertia of the racket like the backcourt, nor does it need to use the stability of the racket to hit the ball like the frontcourt. The midfield ball, whether it is a point kill or a tie draw, pays more attention to speed and rhythm, so the midfield is the main battlefield for light offensive rackets. The WS 72 has excellent overall performance in flat draws. It is not only fast, but also has good direction and flexible direction. The only disadvantage is the slight shaking between the mid-rod and the handle mentioned earlier.
WS 72 has high ball control sensitivity and low error tolerance, so it can optimize your good ball during frontcourt control and will also stink your mistakes.
In terms of backcourt offense, for the players with complete force structure, under the parameters of hard stick and heavy head, the WS 72's backcourt killing can maintain threat, but it is difficult to determine the sound with one beat; for the players who use the force to swing the big arm, the ultra-light pat of the WS 72 may not be able to borrow the force at all; for the players who use the force to swing the forearm, this is a very explosive racket. The point kill is very fast and will not drag your hitting rhythm. Don't ask me why I don't tell these players about the heavy killing of WS 72. You rarely use this kind of force to kill, right? Ha ha.
summary
WS 72 belongs to the category of lightweight offensive shooting that has become increasingly popular in recent years. The overall shooting feel is relatively hard. It is suitable for golfers with complete force structure, or golfers with good force and explosive power. Golfers with low force and swing with their big arms may not be very adaptable. Although it is a super light pat, it is not suitable for female golfers who like to leverage their strength. Of course, female golfers already have a more suitable WS 700 to choose from.
The most distinctive structural feature of WS 72 is the novel carbon handle. The new handle perfectly solves the problem of light attack and shock. In addition, the physical properties of WS 72 are very reasonable, and the accuracy of the ball output and the speed of the ball output are very harmonious.
Considering the price and durability, WS 72 is a very recommended racket, but the audience of racket color matching is relatively small. I hope that in the future, we can also launch a series of color matching that caters to different golfers like UC5000~UC9000.
