Excellent review but do consider making a little longer and perhaps add a few shot of gameplay! Nice touch in comparing it with an equivalent from a more popular brand, It really helps in benchmarking. I am a little surprised that it is a mid stiffness. I have been using it for more than a year as my primary and i thought it was rather stiff. It is a little hard to control around the net unless you have the space for a fuller swing but that may just be a skill issue on my part. the smashes feel heavenly when you do find the sweet spot though even though I have mine at 28lbs. ! any recommendations on rackets that are the natural next step from this one? perhaps with a little more feel at the cost of power?
Stiffness is relative to the weight distribution on the head, if the same shaft is used on a even balance racquet the shaft would feel stiff. Around the net hold the racquet with the lose grip to the point the racquet just falls off your hand, the racquet would do rest when the shuttle makes contact with the strings and at 28 pounds all you need to do is make sure it hits the sweet spot and the shuttle will tumble over the net. I would recommend Vanguard 11 as an upgrade, I am playing with it currently and would a review soon, for me personally this is the best racquet under 3K that one can buy. it has a solid feel even while using strings that are more vibration prone strings like Yonex Exbolt 63 , the racquet observers vibrations well, has a bigger sweet spot than Ziggler and better at defense and net play and has more control at the same time not compromising on power.
Sorry bro, I dont know the difference as I have not played with Reborn. Currently I am playing with Astrox 99 Play with 26 pounds tension, testing it for a review.
Thanks for good review. I find you reviews practical. I am not sure why there are so few subscribers or views. Perhaps people like it when reviewer comes on camera... i am not sure. Have you played with Yonex astrox 99 play? I heard from youtube and reddit that it's good head heavy racket for smashings/singles/backcourt play. Please let me know - How does it compare to apacs z ziggler. I have these two on my radar from a long time. I play singles mostly. Thanks in advance!
Thank you Bro. I am doing this for fun as I enjoy playing Badminton so much, through this channel I will be happy if I can help someone make decisions in buying a suitable racquet for them and enjoy a lot interacting fellow badminton players like you. I have played with Astrox 99 Play, its suited more for singles than doubles. The weight is very similar to Z Ziggler, but its frame size is so much bigger so its a touch more draggy in the air, but it is able to transfer more weight on to the shuttle and I feel easier to get a steeper smash once you get the timing rite, sweet spot is also much bigger than Ziggler, infact much bigger than most racquets, the slice drops are better and have more spin, making it better for singles than Ziggler. Ziggler feels a touch faster than 99 Play so between these two racquets Ziggler is better suited for doubles play. Hope this helps.
@@BadmintonRacquetReviews This is so helpful! You gave detailed and technical answer and that's really appreciable and will be helpful to all! I purchased 99 play just 2 days back and so far liking it very much! Thanks again!
Yes, Stiffness and Flexibility are used to describe the feel of the shaft. Medium Stiff, then its stiff and very stiff. Or Medium Flex or Flexibility or soft. This is how most people describe the feel. So Medium Stiff and Medium Flex are same.
Nano Fusion Speed 722 for beginners for sure, Ziggler is heavy and with smaller sweet spot is not something for beginners, Speed 722 is lighter and faster and good to learn Badminton with.
@@BadmintonRacquetReviews Upon further research it seems like the N Force 111 is a more versatile racquet than the Ziggler. Would recommend something with a flexible shaft but a little bit of heft on the head? I want to have some power and learn to do smashes even though I don't have experience yet.
Hi Bro, I have not played with 232 xtra power so not aware if its better than Ziggler, if you are a intermediate player and have good strength go with ziggler. 232 xtra power could be just as heavy, so cant go wrong with ziggler between these two.
Yellow sticker falls off at times so cant reply on that, I have not seen a Apacs racquet without a UK flag. Even apacs has a post in their Insta page how to identify fakes, so it must be an issue. Buy from their authorized dealers and online sales portal, you will get original.
30 pounds is too high, small sweet spot, will not be able to time it well, wont like the feel of the racquet as it will feel hard, can give shoulder or wrist pain.

Apacs z ziggler or finapi 232 xtra power , which one is better , I play both singles and doubles.

Suggest me a head heavy racket around 4k price range ..
Yonex Astrox 99 Play for singles and Yonex Astrox 88 Play for doubles.
If you are from Delhi, then you can buy astrox Nextage for 6k from me.
Hi, if there no UK flag and there is no yellow sticker is it original?

@@BadmintonRacquetReviews thanks bro muje lagta hai hindi mai log jada connect karenge

But I am not an advanced player.
What will be the effects of that??
30 pounds is too high, small sweet spot, will not be able to time it well, wont like the feel of the racquet as it will feel hard, can give shoulder or wrist pain.
