User review

  • Bought the 3u5g
    Suddenly bought an advanced racket as my second one
    Using YONEX AEROBITE BOOST at 25p and a YONEX TOWEL GRIP DX (with a YONEX underwrap beneath)
    My previous racket was a 5u beginner racket, so this felt very heavy and I had sore muscles on the first day.
    Now, three weeks later, I've gotten used to the weight and can hit both clears and smashes well.
    Maybe because the shaft is stiff, I feel it takes strength to get distance
    Hairpins, which are my specialty, are easy to hit, as you'd expect from a racket used by Kento Momota.
    It's an advanced racket I wouldn't really recommend for beginners to buy, but if you do shadow swings and hitting practice for a week or two, you can handle it at an ordinary player's level. Rackets are consumables, so I don't recommend it as your first purchase. (I think you should buy it after learning the basic racket movements)
    I'd be glad if this helps those considering buying it, even a little.

  • It's a 5u and a very light racket.
    It was the first racket I bought, and because it's light, the maneuverability is good.
    The shaft flexes well (it's soft), so clears are easy to get deep.
    It can only be strung up to 22p, so I switched rackets in order to go to a higher tension.
    The racket I switched to was a 3u, so I felt once again how light this one is.
    I especially recommend it to people buying their first racket after starting badminton, people who aren't very confident in their strength, and people who want to enjoy badminton as a hobby.
    I'd be glad if this helps anyone buying it.
