Trade off what you are good at with the features of the racket that can help you with your weakness. If you have good smashing techniques and a bit lack in defense, go for nanoflare. Remember, to win the game you can't just attack, you also need to defends. The pro players are different. They find the racket which can help them to outshine their strength.
Great breakdown mate, really informative and easy to follow, the 88D Pro and 100zz in 4u are by far my favourite, singles I tend to use the 100zz or the 88D too. But I mostly play doubles anyway
@Munggo Lloyd the 100zz is really nice for attacking but the slightly smaller than 'standard' head can make it feel weird, it's really stiff too so unless you feel like other rackets feel like what I call "wet noodles" you probably won't see any improvement from it, you need a high swing speed and a good amount of power to get the racket working. If you're not that powerful then I'd suggest going for a medium flex racket as that will obviously flex better and allow you to produce power in your shots
@@munggo_lloyd Out of curiosity I bought the 100 Game (medium flex). I like the power it gives. It is a bit slower than the Arcsaber. I play doubles. I do prefer the updated Arcsaber 7 series. And yes, I can feel the performance difference between the Pro, Tour, & Play.
My game change until I be able to play and used the arcsaber 11 Pro. Handsdown the best and really works for me very well, like defense, attack, clear, net any angle is superb and definetly my end game racket. In addition, I just had the Arcsaber 7 Pro, i didnt test it out yet but it feels different right after i hold it (unstrung). This video is really helpful for all those beginner who just started and looking for a great rackrt to play with, and for the experience player a guide to try and looking to replace their previous racket.
I play with Arcsaber 7 Pro & Play. My friend is not happy I win against him in doubles with the 7 Play. 😁 I like the amount of power I generate from drives & the punch clear.
Thank you for this informative video. Over the past 10 years I've settled on Arcsabers. First a 10 then an 11. The frame of the 11 has cracked so presently have reverted to a 10 but am considering the 11 Pro or maybe a 7 Pro.
@@robn7777777 the 11 Pro would be a good choice. I moved from the Arc Saber 11 to the Astrox 77 Pro, so try one of those too if you can. Also from rackets out after this video the Astrox 88D Pro 4U is very nice.
There are a lot of contributing factors that impact the generated output of a swing, including string selection, string tension, grip method, form, technique, and experience. Although shaft thickness, stiffness/flex, and racket balance may be important, they are not conclusive.
Hi Guys Im a Begginers on Badminton, And I'm having so much Fun! I just want to ask for an advice, what arcsaber variation is the best for me? Like I want to play all-around but mostly singles for now until I gain more experience. Thanks! ❤
@ClubRackets May I ask what type should I get like is it Pro, Tour or Play? Interms of Best Feeling while Playing with it, is Play good enough? Or Should I go for the Pro one?
Yes, you're right that the racket categories are head heavy, even balance, and head light. Now, I have the even balance racket (Arcsaber 11 Pro) and head light racket (Nanoflare 800). So, could you suggest which one the best head heavy racket? Thanks for your video.
The most head heavy one is 99 Pro > 100ZZ > 88D Pro > 77 Pro > 88S Pro, if it’s not Pro version then it doesn’t really matter because the stiffness and weight are not actually matching what they’re supposed to be, I’d say except the Pro version tour game and play are just under the same name but they are actually different things, can’t compare with the pro.
@doctorzee1809 there is a quality difference yes but the main change you would be able to feel is that the Pro has a stiff shaft and may feel more precise. That can make them harder to use though if you don't have an advanced swing. I would suggest a Game or Tour for an intermediate player.
Hello, I am an intermediate player having a nano flare. My shots don’t generate much power now, so I’m thinking of going for astrox series. Is this the right way to think about it?
Yes, while a racket can't fix everything, head heavy rackets are generally easier to generate power with. You will also need to work on generating more racket head speed.
Astrox nextage/ Arcsaber 11 tour / Nanoflare Nextage / 88D tour which one I should chose ? I am in intermediate player, looking for good smash without much hand pain , and also should have good control speed in game , can you please suggest ? Is this nextgen rackets are really good ?
It would be great if you could review the Astrox 100 game rackets as you mentioned its one of the best sellers, I am interested in buying it as well. 👍
@@ClubRackets Thank you for your reply. That explains why I don't see any at my local shop for purchase. At the social I play at, only a few players use Duora. It will be interesting to see if they switch over to Arcsaber, Nanoflare, or Astrox.
Very much depends on your style. Both are popular. I find the Astrox range produce a smash more easily with the head weight and the rotational generator.
@@erawanprawira You are right bro, Your friend told you right. The Duora series was launched to replace the Arcsaber series. It's an improvement to Arcsaber. Arc saber launched in 2007 with Arcsaber7 and Duora Series in 2015.

Hii i received a cs006 yonex racket and i’ve tried looking for more information on it online but i found that it is not that well known😢 just wondering if you can help me figure out how good of a racket it is or how it weight and stuff
I'm a 6'4 tall guy with alot of power and decent technique and only play singles. I mainly struggle with defence and fast rallies. I've been using the ax99 play and gotten used to its medium stiffness but could propably upgrade to a better racket with a stiffer core. Honestly i would like a less headheavy racket since i think i dont need the extra hh for power. Is the nanoflare series a good option since i feel like it could support my weaker side of the game and if not nanoflare is there another racket which u could recommend? Also read that the 1000tour feels abit stiffer than the 1000z, is this true in ur opinion?
I would maybe go with something like the 88S Pro. Head Heavy still but less so. 3U should be fine for singles, I find the 4U version too light. Haven't hit with the Nanoflare 1000 Tour as yet.
Hi, I have been playing badminton for 6 months now with a very basic racket, want to go for the arcsaber series although not sure whether to go for a play or tour racket.
88D is for Dominant.. in a heavier side. If your playstyle is smashing and attacker this might be fit for you with great technique, if your playstlye is allrounder Arc11 pro is the best choice. Hope it helps
I must say somehting, not against you, but between 99 pro and 100ZZ everyone tells different things about the racket. Some say smash is more powerfull en 100ZZ some say it is on 99 pro, some say 100zz lift better some say 99 pro does, and this go on and on with control etc.. I heard litterally everything with everyone reviews on internet I think we should just say the difference are small and you may have preferences that depends only on you, how you handle and swing it, you may have better outcome with one
That is very true. Some of the rackets are so close together in specs that there is very little difference between them. It may well make no difference at all to some players. You just need to find one you like and feel confident with and stick with it.
Out of the hundreds of vids for racquets this is the most useful one by far
Thanks!
I second this.

So um what racket should i buy on astrox because i prefer smashing so what should i start i with?
The 88D is probably the most popular racket for smashing in the series. I like the 77 Pro myself.
So what about the nannoflare for speed?
All good but I'd probably say the 1000Z
