Taiger X Control

MAXX Taiger X Control Badminton Racket

The MAXX Taiger X Control is a control-focused badminton racket designed for players who want a stable, precise feel without moving to an overly heavy racket. It is available in 3U and 4U specifications, with a balance point of 292 ± 5mm and a medium flex rating of 8.7 ± 0.2.

Built with 46T High Modulus Graphite, the Taiger X Control is designed to provide a solid and responsive racket platform. Its 292mm balance places the racket close to an even balance, helping provide a useful combination of handling, stability and control during rallies. The medium flex also gives the shaft some flexibility through the swing rather than the more rigid response associated with an extra-stiff racket.

The racket is rated for string tensions of 28–32 lbs and uses a G5 grip. The 4U version is listed at approximately 85 ± 2g, while the range also includes a 3U option. This gives players the ability to select a slightly lighter or heavier setup according to their preferred feel and playing style.

The Taiger X Control is particularly suited to club players who value placement, consistency and racket stability. Its balanced specification makes it suitable for a variety of rallies, including controlled drives, defensive exchanges and accurate attacking shots. The higher string-tension range also gives experienced players room to fine-tune the stringbed to their preferred response.

With its 46T High Modulus Graphite construction, medium flex, 292mm balance and 28–32 lb tension range, the MAXX Taiger X Control is a versatile option for players looking for a control-oriented racket with a solid, responsive feel.
