Today I happened to hold some high-end Yonex Racquets: Arcsaber Pro 11, Arcsaber 7 Pro, Nanoflare 100z, Astrox 88S Pro, Astrox 88D Pro, Arcsaber 99 Pro, Nanoflare 700, Astrox 100z, Duora Z strike, Duora 10. shelterin Being a fast player who scores points based on speed. Most head-heavy racquets would lack control and speed in terms of switching grips while defending. I play singles mostly with Voltric 10dg(Head heavy and stiff). My Review about them: Arcsaber 11 Pro -> Perfect Racquet (Everything that you ask for) Arcsaber 7 Pro -> Once you hold 11Pro you don't want to handle any other Arcsaber. 7 is also perfect I think grip-wise there might be a difference. Astrox 88D Pro, 88S Pro -> Almost similar just 88S Pro feels more control, 88D feels more power. (Pick anyone it won't impact much). Nanoflare 100z -> Mama Mia is so light loved it, speed and control (10/10) but when it comes to smashing it would let me work more (Pro players can smash with all of these racquets) plus I could feel by touching frame one clash and its goneface-purple-sweating. Being from a normal family, I will stay away from this racquet. But it would be my fav and any day racquet. Arcsaber 99 Pro -> Head heavy so I don't like the feel and control of it (Stiff too) Astrox 100zz -> Same as above more stiff and head heavy. * All rackets are amazing it mostly depends on your playing style. I can't handle 100zz I am not ready to accept itface-purple-crying but once you get over that thing what works for others will work for you as well. Before choosing a racquet, inspect yourself what your major points how you play, and how you earn most of the points. Is it by smashing, or more by defending, long rallies?

hi, great video , by the way did you measure that swing weight with the strings on and grip because 91 swing weight feels very odd for an even balance 4U racquet. The best way to have consistent readings I feel would be just the naked frame
Few week back I bought 99pro, 99game and arcsaber 11pro. After playing few matches, I found if 99pro/game racket is in hand always want hit smashes and after few game I felt hand is heavy. While playing with arcsaber 11 pro, always want for placement/ drop shot. Overall both Rackets find good for me but now planning to play with 50% part of game with arcsaber 11 pro and for finishing game 50% with 99 pro. Putting money and doing all r&d 1😁😁😁
Can you please do a review of racquets that are good to use while playing with the Yonex Mavis 300 series. What kind of strings and what is the best tension. Also if you have any other suggestions while playing with plastic shuttles.
Kindly seeking your advice. I have been using the arc saber 8dx racquet as my primary for over 10 years. Kindly if you can advice which racquet on the market today is a best fit to the arc saber 8dx and why. Thanks again!
Its gud to see your review by real-playing experience. As the figures presented on monitor, I believe you measured the racket with string on. So the swing weight is ok at 91.5 (I myself estimate the bare racket swing weight at 85-86 which is suitable for the even balance arcsaber). However, Im wondering the balance point 286mm that is quite low and leans much to head light racket
I think it's because of his grip setting. He used towel grip which would add around 2-3 grams more than overgrip to the rackets, so it's shifting the "static" BP. I remember someone said in badminton central forum that every 1 gram added to a racket ,it will shift the BP around 1.5mm. So IMO, the best method to measure a rackets is when the racket is bare, with no string and no external grip attached.
Ive been contemplating on getting this as im not a power smasher but more of a control player. I currently have 2 100zz 4u and so far liking it very much. With your review i think the arcsaber 11 pro might make me smashes even weaker. Am i right?
@@senopriyono-8957 i used to use the 88d then switched to the 100zz because it was easier to play with. havent gotten a chance to use the arcsaber 11. as the review said, if i dont have a fast swing speed, head heavy rackets would be more beneficial.
Awesome Review! I have been using BraveSword 12 about 9 years, and ArcSaber Z-Slash for about 5 years prior to that. Knowing BS12 is one of the fastest rackets, would I expect (a) more power (b) similar speed with the ArcSaber 11 Pro?
@@nickyhicky1000 It was light and fast, but definitely even-balance compared to the BS12, which is only slightly HH. Very whippy in general, like my Z-Slash.
Like what you reviewed, i suppose Tour version is more friendly and familiar to original arc11. Btw i see that red-metal grey is not bad and love to see ebs cap plus applied on arc11 pro
hey I am a lil bit confused I am an intermediate player I like playing with a 3u racquet I like hitting smashes basically powerful game.. do you have any suggestion which racquet should I go with?
Based on the BP, i think Arc11 Pro would be the closest thing to NF700, but i don't know about the durability of this rackets. Ax100zz is a HH racket and did not have any similarities to NF700 at all.
Don't you think that you smash steepness has reduced with arcsaber 11 pro?? I mean the smashes aren't as steep compared with your other racquet smashes (astrox 88s for example)
Just as a warning, at least test it first. I thought the same. They said it's same racket than normal 700 nano. It's definitely not, you have to try it to understand what I mean. I got my 5th Ltd racket in use, they are official versions.
Very informative 👌👌👌. Appreciate your suggestion for below query. Right now I am using ASTX 88SPro, racket is good but lots of string movements and breaking. planning to buy one more racket as additional. Option what I see is ASTX 88D Pro or ARSC11 Pro. Please advise. Thanks and keep doing your reviews.
Hi, I have both : Just to give inputs: Astrox88dpro 3u4g + aerobite boost 25lbs - head heavy - back court clears are easy - backhand clearance may be weak for beginners due to lack of quality shot - aero boost gives comfort and decent repulsion but great control with drops - speedy smashes - good for matured player - $$$ Arcsaber11pro 4u5g + nanogy99 26lbs - very light yet powerful - very well balanced weight - small movements generate high speed - back court clears are easy - backhand clearances get a bit easy for beginners due to light weight and better for matured players. - nanogy99 @ 26 offers great control and still rapid repulsion. - smashes feel speedy but marginally less than 88Dpro - good for beginners / matured players alike - faster in hand than 88D Pro for single / front double - $$$
Same with my situation. 88S Pro string breaks more frequently due to 68 holes and smashes lack of power comparing to 88S. So I've sold it and considering 11 Pro and 88D Pro
I would not say it's too heavy nor similar to arc11. Arc11 is almost a HH racket, with BP measured around 299mm (badminton guide channel) to 304mm (some channel which i forget). But arc11 pro has 286mm BP (with string and towel grip on), certainly they have different feel. So IMO, it might be similar to NF800 feel but with bigger frame of course, or maybe ax88s pro (?). One thing that im sure of based on the data, this is a fast racket even for 3U and almost a HL racket.
What are you after, harder smashes or speed and manouverability? If you a hard attacker or back court player go for 3U, if you a front court player go for 4U. But it would be best if you could test it out before buying, to find the one which suited you best.
@@singgihsuhariyanto8563 thanks. Im not a hard smasher, more towards control play and likes to dropshot. So far, 100zz 4u is very nice. Im considering whether to take 3u or not for the arcsaber dt the lower Balance point.
@@dkaz1902 Generally, most people would go for 3U if its an even balance or HL racket, even some people say 3U even balance racket feel the same as 4U HH rackets, but in the end it depends on yourself, whether you could handle 3U or not. I myself have arc11 3u and 4u and find that 3U arcsaber 11 suit me best. My mistake was never test Arc11 3U and 4u before bought those rackets. So, if you could get your hands on demo rackets, please try them first.
ArcSaber 11 new series has lost its iconic-design of white color on the frame side, which mimic image of a "hunter-bow". I more prefer the 2017 version than the new one ;)
You know when you r hitting jump smashes, or half jump smashes, your foot work is totally wrong. I don't know why you were jumping around unnecessarily before hitting the smashes.
lol oh man.... this guy has no idea what hes saying... its just bla bla something technical sounding,, and then bla bla bla string technical sounding stuff......and theeenn more tech nano nano something and then that drives the isometric frame softening device,, which is connected to the guys in the FBI who watch for any mistakes granted by the stiff section of the countershaft requiring the colours of the racquet to flex and bend with the light source pushed up by the newly designed handle......duuuude a whole room full of Div 1 players just had a good laugh at your expense......at least your better than Paul Stewart we laughing with you not at you

The best review on TH-cam for Arcsaber 11 Pro after watching all the available videos.... Thanks for the inside detailed review

How does it feel with exbolt 63? I'm currently using aerobite for my 11 pro

Which one better arcsaber 11 pro or 88d pro?
11 比较均衡 属于防守型 但后场扣杀不行下压力不足 88dpro 主攻杀球 后场杀球有利 拍头较重 如果想均衡偏向攻击 77pro 不错 拍轻 拍头又不是很重 打时间长了省体力

I mean the smashes aren't as steep compared with your other racquet smashes (astrox 88s for example)
what are those shoes you wear in 7:23? :o
Does there is a difference of performance between New Nanoflare 700 vs Old Nanoflare 700?????
