    Specs and features: Solid feel for speed & power smashes. Technology: [High-strength multi]: A multifilament whose core combines many fibers thinner than a human hair (about 1,000 for tennis, about 300 for badminton). It offers good dwell time and is known for its soft feel. High-strength multi is stronger and more abrasion-resistant than ordinary multifilament. [Vectran]: A high-strength, high-modulus fiber. Wound in a spiral around the core, it minimizes loosening and improves durability. [High polymer]: Excellent at recovering from the "flattening" and "stretching" at impact, producing sharp shots. [Nylon (polyamide)]: A type of plastic with a good balance of repulsion, feel, and durability. [Braiding]: A process that weaves the outer braid around the core, reducing damage to the string.

    • Former Badminton Club Guy

      Former Badminton Club Guy (Experience:4-5 years) Really, really good

      I've used it strung at 25 lbs on an ASTROX 99 (the blue one).
      I tend to break strings near the bottom of the frame on mishits, so I picked this string thinking I'd go with a thicker one.
      After hitting with it, it's the string that felt most like it suited me of any I've used.
      First, overhead shots like clears and smashes had great repulsion and were easy to hit. It feels so good to hit!
      Drives and receives also felt like they had nice hold.
      However, maybe the tension didn't suit me, or I'm just not good enough, but I used it twice and broke it within about a week both times. Well, it's probably my own fault, so I can't really judge durability.

      In terms of feel when hitting, it's definitely the one I'd recommend most!

      Both my racket and my chair are Duora (Experience:4-5 years) A stiff string, but not just stiff

      Used on a black/silver 88D PRO at 26-29 lbs.
      It's stiff, but not only that; it feels like a different beast from BG80, Z66 Rusty, and the like. The stiffness is completely different, but it has a momentary hold from flexing, like BG66F or thicker high-durability strings, so it seems to be a string with good control as well as power. Also, maybe thanks to this, it has relatively few bottom breaks for a stiff string?
      The surface is slick, but slicing and spin shots aren't bad either.
      If you've got power, you can hit really good smashes. Image-wise, I think it matches the catchphrase. However, I feel it performs best when the player has power and strings it at high tension. At low tension it'll probably start to feel dull.
      You should use it thinking of it as something different from BG80 and the like. Thinking that way will definitely make its strengths easier to appreciate.

      Satokoko (Experience:Less than a year) Pretty good!

      I use it on a Composite Techno LESMO P7 at 23 lbs.
      The sound is great, and it feels awesome when smashing.
      Might be because of the tension, but I got the impression the strings shift out of place easily.
