The Babolat Jetstream 80 Badminton Racquet is an ultra-lightweight performance racquet designed for defensive players who prioritize maneuverability, speed, comfort and precision.
At just 80 g, the Jetstream 80 combines a head-light balance with a flexible shaft and low swing weight, making it exceptionally quick through the air. Its aerodynamic construction helps players react faster during defensive exchanges, drives and net play, while MetricFlex technology provides accessible power and precise shot control.
Exceptional Maneuverability
The Jetstream 80 is engineered for fast handling and rapid reactions.
Its lightweight construction combines with Slim T, Aero+ technology and an ultra-thin 6.5 mm shaft to reduce aerodynamic resistance and improve racquet-head speed.
With a swing weight of just 70 kg·cm², the Jetstream 80 is officially classified by Babolat as head light, making it particularly easy to maneuver during quick defensive exchanges.
Flexible Shaft for Accessible Power
The flexible shaft helps generate shuttle speed without requiring an especially powerful or technically demanding swing.
This additional flex makes it easier to produce depth on clears and power on attacking shots while maintaining the quick handling expected from a lightweight defensive racquet.
MetricFlex – Power & Precision
Babolat's patented MetricFlex technology provides different flexibility characteristics depending on the direction and stage of the swing.
The shaft is more flexible during stroke preparation and becomes more rigid through impact, helping combine easy power with improved precision.
Improved Stability & Comfort
Integrated SMAC material helps increase racquet stability and reduce unwanted vibration.
This improves comfort and control at impact, giving players a more stable response during blocks, drives, drops and defensive returns.
Aero+ Technology
Aero+ integrates the eyelets into the racquet frame to create a smoother aerodynamic profile.
Reducing air resistance helps the racquet accelerate more easily, improving both maneuverability and racquet-head speed.
Slim T & Maneuverability Optimizer
Babolat's Slim T technology streamlines the connection between the shaft and racquet head, further reducing aerodynamic drag.
The Maneuverability Optimizer improves the connection between the top cap and shaft, while built-in SMAC material adds stability and responsiveness.
