At 0.65mm — the same gauge as the original No. 1 — the Rebound is engineered for elasticity and rebound response rather than hard feel or maximum durability. The defining characteristic is a springier, more lively string bed: the Rebound feels energetic on contact, with the shuttle appearing to spring from the string bed with greater elastic momentum than the direct, immediate departure of the original No. 1.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n \t\u003cli\u003eUnderstanding what \"rebound\" means as a string performance characteristic helps position this string correctly. The original No. 1's hard feel produces maximum directional control and crispness — the shuttle goes exactly where the swing directs it, with minimal elastic deviation. The Rebound's elasticity-optimised construction allows slightly more string bed deformation and a faster snap-back, adding an energetic, lively quality to the repulsion. This feel is closer to what Yonex BG66 Ultimax players describe as the string's \"bounce\" — but with the Rebound's better tension retention and sharper acoustic response that the No. 1 family is known for.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n \t\u003cli\u003eThe acoustic signature is distinctive: the Li-Ning No 1 Rebound Badminton String produces a crisp, high-pitched sound with a slightly more resonant character than the original No. 1's dry crack. The elastic snap-back creates a brief additional string vibration after impact that contributes to a fuller, more satisfying hitting sound. Players who value acoustic feedback as part of their game confidence — and in Indian competitive club play, the sound of a well-hit shuttle is genuinely important to many players — will find the Rebound particularly satisfying.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n \t\u003cli\u003eLi-Ning India positions the Li-Ning No 1 Rebound Badminton String for \"advanced players who demand high repulsion power and a sharp hitting sound\" with a \"moderate feel ideal for aggressive gameplay.\" This positioning aligns with the Rebound's place in the family: it is not the hardest or the softest, but the most energetically responsive — a string for players who want the No. 1 family's repulsion credentials with a feel that rewards fast, aggressive play with a lively, confident response from the string bed.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\u003ch2\u003eString Character Breakdown of Li-Ning No 1 Rebound Badminton String:\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n \t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGauge — 0.65mm (Thin\/Performance):\u003c\/strong\u003e The same 0.65mm as the original No. 1 — placing the Li-Ning No 1 Rebound Badminton String firmly in the performance string tier with maximum repulsion potential from thinness. At 0.65mm, the string bed deforms more on impact and snaps back faster than thicker strings. The Rebound's elasticity construction amplifies this natural snap-back of thin strings into a more pronounced, energetic response.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n \t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCore — Heat Resistant High-Intensity Nylon Multifilament:\u003c\/strong\u003e High-intensity nylon multifilament core providing the elastic foundation for repulsion. The Rebound's core construction is optimised for maximum elastic energy storage and release — the fibres deform more readily under impact and spring back faster, creating the lively feel that defines this string. Heat resistance ensures consistency across varying playing conditions.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n \t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOuter — Heat Resistant High-Intensity Nylon:\u003c\/strong\u003e High-intensity nylon outer protecting the core structure and providing the contact surface. The Rebound's outer maintains the direct nylon-to-shuttle contact that delivers a crisp acoustic response — no coating that would cushion the feel as the Boost's elastic resin does. This preserves the sharpness of the Rebound's hitting sound while the core construction provides the elastic energy.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n \t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eElasticity Optimisation — The Defining Rebound Property:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Li-Ning No 1 Rebound Badminton String is specifically engineered for elastic response — the string's internal construction is calibrated to maximise the ratio of energy returned to the shuttle versus energy absorbed by the string. A more elastic string returns more of the impact energy to propel the shuttle rather than dissipating it as heat or vibration in the string body. This engineering focus produces the springier feel that distinguishes the Li-Ning No 1 Rebound Badminton String from the original No. 1's direct, hard-feel approach.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n \t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTension Maintenance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Li-Ning describes the Li-Ning No 1 Rebound Badminton String as providing excellent tension maintenance alongside its elasticity — an important qualifier for an elasticity-focused string. Some highly elastic strings sacrifice tension retention to achieve their lively feel. The Li-Ning No 1 Rebound Badminton String is positioned to maintain tension reasonably well, keeping the elastic response consistent over a longer period than BG66 Ultimax, whose tension loss progressively softens its feel within a few sessions.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n \t\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFeel — Medium-Crisp:\u003c\/strong\u003e Positioned between the original No. 1's hard profile and the Boost's soft profile. The Rebound has a crisp initial contact (from the direct nylon outer) with an elastic, springy snap-back (from the elasticity-optimised core). The combined effect is a feel that is more lively and energetic than the original No. 1's dry hardness, more precise and acoustically clear than the Boost's cushioned softness.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\u003ch2\u003ePerformance Ratings — Li-Ning No 1 Rebound Badminton String:\u003c\/h2\u003e\r\n\u003ctable\u003e\r\n\u003ctbody\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCategory\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eScore\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNotes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\r\n\u003ctr\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRepulsion\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e9.5 \/ 10\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\r\n\u003ctd\u003eLi-Ning No 1 Rebound Badminton String is of 0.65mm gauge and elasticity-optimised construction deliver very high repulsion.

At 22–25 lbs, the springy, lively feel is at its most pronounced — a significant step up from the feel of 0.70mm strings at the same tension.
