In the 3U, that shaft is Hard Flex, so the racket rewards a fast, full swing with a direct, powerful response rather than a soft, whippy kick.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHundred rates it for professional-level attacking players, and the 3U amplifies that brief: more mass in the swing means harder smashes and deeper clears, at the cost of slower handling in quick exchanges.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThis is a singles power racket for an advanced player with a strong, well-timed swing who wants extra power from the rearcourt. Doubles players who live in flat drive battles will be better served by a lighter weight.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnology Breakdown:\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5.9 mm Ultra-Thin Shaft — speed through the swing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hundred's thinnest Nitrix shaft moves through the air with less drag, so the heavy 3U head still accelerates quickly on a full smash. Hundred designs it to hold its line through contact, which keeps a hard smash going where you aimed it.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHead-Heavy Balance — weight behind every shot:\u003c\/strong\u003e More of the racket's mass sits towards the head, which adds momentum to smashes and makes deep clears from the back of the court easier to reach. The trade-off is a slower recovery when the shuttle comes back fast and flat.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHard Flex Shaft (3U) — direct power for a fast swing:\u003c\/strong\u003e The 3U uses a Hard Flex shaft, while the 4U and 5U versions use Mid Flex. A stiffer shaft bends less at impact, so a player who already swings fast gets a sharper, more direct response; a slower swing will find it harder to load.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCurve² Frame Shape — an attacking platform:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hundred's Curve² frame is the head shape shared across the Nitrix power rackets, giving a consistent, attack-ready string bed for repeated smashes and steep downward shots.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003ePerformance Ratings:\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCategory\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScore (\/10)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNotes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAttack\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e10\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThis is the racket's whole purpose: 3U mass, a head-heavy balance and a Hard Flex shaft combine for heavy, steep smashes and clears that reach the back line with ease.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDefence\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSolid when you have time to set up a lift or a long defensive clear, but the heavier head is slower to recover against fast smashes aimed at the body.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNet Area\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCapable of firm net kills when you are early, but quick interceptions and fast net exchanges feel slower than on a lighter or more head-light frame.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eControl\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThe thin shaft holds its line well on full swings, but the weight and stiffness need clean timing; on rushed or off-balance shots, placement is less forgiving.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRacket Finder — Is This Right for You?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdvanced singles players who win from the rearcourt:\u003c\/strong\u003e if your game is built on deep clears and hard, steep smashes, the 3U gives you more power per swing than the lighter versions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStrong attackers with a fast, well-timed swing:\u003c\/strong\u003e the Hard Flex shaft rewards players who already generate racket-head speed through technique.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlayers stepping up within the Nitrix series:\u003c\/strong\u003e for a player who already likes the Nitrix Pro or Nitrix 70 Venom and wants a thinner-shafted, more aggressive power frame.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNot for you if you play mostly fast doubles:\u003c\/strong\u003e flat drives and quick net exchanges favour a lighter racket; consider the 4U or 5U Nitrix 80 Bullet, which also have the easier-to-load Mid Flex shaft.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNot for you if you are a beginner or developing intermediate:\u003c\/strong\u003e a heavy, head-heavy, hard-flex frame punishes late timing and tires the arm quickly.
