    "Neo CS Carbon Nanotube" gets caught in and it sharply shoots with "Sonic Metal".

      Satomi （Experience：6-10 years） Switching to ARCSABER

      I tried it out while considering switching from the ARC 10, and even compared to the 10, it felt really heavy. My drives and receives felt late. Personally, I couldn't get the feel for smashes either, so I didn't get any satisfying shots. When I asked people who are using it now, it seems it took them a while to get used to it too. It seems to be a really good racket once you can master it. It's for advanced players: weight in the head + ARCSABER-style flex + a narrow sweet spot. Maybe these three points are what make it hard to handle? It's not a racket for beginners. It might be perfect for powerful singles players.

      courage （Experience：6-10 years） This one's good

      It's a racket that quite a lot of people use, even within the ARCSABER series.
      It feels heavy when you first use it, but as you gradually get used to it, you can feel its high performance.
      It's a racket that I feel has both high repulsion for powerful smashes and clears, and soft control for things like hairpins.
      I think if you can master it, it can become a long-term partner.

      Yune All-rounder

      It's a racket for all-rounders.
      For how easy it is to swing, the head still has real effect, so smashes really fly.

    • Uracchi 1203

      Uracchi 1203 （Experience：6-10 years） Well balanced

      It's a well-balanced racket. The head is heavy, but the racket flexes and lets you transfer power to the shuttle. Receives leave a solid feeling, and it's very easy to handle. It makes a high-pitched (metallic) sound. The frame is thin, so you can swing through. There's little shock on the face at the moment of contact, and the shuttle flies where you aim. Smashes feel firm too, and the head snaps back, so it has a firm hitting feel.

      Tan （Experience：6-10 years） Reliable YONEX

      I've used YONEX rackets the whole five years I've been playing badminton. The ARCSABER 11 I bought this time is easy to use. What I like most is that it makes the shuttle very easy to control and is excellent for swinging all the way through.

      Taro ARCSABER 11, outstandingly easy to use

      The reason I started using the ARCSABER 11 is that a teammate was using one and it looked really easy to use. When they let me try it, it felt so good to use that I was quite surprised. I can hit strong smashes from all kinds of angles, so playing badminton has become even more fun.

    • Pacific saury

      Pacific saury （Experience：4-5 years） A well-balanced racket

      My first impression when I held the racket was that the head felt slightly heavy. But the fine maneuverability and the feel when you swing through are good, and smashing feels great, so I recommend it for hard hitters. The weight is moderate, but some people might find it tiring to use in doubles.
