TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
About the Arcsaber series
The Arcsaber (which replaces the Duora range) is designed for control to meet the needs of all-round, precise players. These rackets have a more-or-less even balance to retain maximum control and feel.
Weight
83 g - 4U (80-84 g). The weight (actually the mass) is measured in grams. A badminton racket's weight ranges from 60 grams to over 100 grams and is classified into different "U" weight ranges. The lighter a racket is, the more manoeuvrable and comfortable it will be. It's also easier to swing and faster, although less powerful. On the other hand, a heavier racket will be more powerful but less comfortable.
Flexibility
Semi stiff.
Flexibility is defined as the shaft's capacity to bend while hitting. Shafts can range from flexible to rigid.A flexible shaft is more forgiving and will help you hit the shuttlecock further, although your shots will be slower. While a rigid shaft provides better propulsion, it requires a fast swing and is less forgiving.
Balance
neutral.
Balance refers to the racket's weight distribution. It is indicated in millimetres and is measured from the base of the handle to the balance point. A head light racket will be more manoeuvrable and reactive, making it perfect for defensive and doubles players. Head heavy rackets will provide better power, the ideal choice for offensive players. However, they can feel heavy and difficult to swing.
Composition
HM Graphite.
The price of a badminton racket is affected by its composition. Steel and/or aluminium rackets are sturdy, heavy and better suited to recreational use. Graphite/aluminium and full graphite rackets are lightweight and perfect for beginner and intermediate players. Rackets made from high-modulus graphite and other materials like tungsten are designed for advanced players.
Length
675 mm: 10 mm longer.
The length of an adult's racket is measured in millimetres and ranges from 660 mm to 680 mm. In fact, the shaft is the only part that changes in length. A shorter shaft will be more manoeuvrable and provide a better feel. A longer shaft will offer increased inertia for added power.
Grip size
G5 = small (80‒84 mm).
Grip size is measured in millimetres. Grip size ranges from 75 mm to over 90 mm and is categorized into size ranges expressed in "G". While a larger handle is easier to hold, many players have difficulty changing their grip. A smaller handle is easier to wield and lets you put more power on the racket by using your fingers.
Original strings
The rackets come factory strung with Yonex strings with a 0.70 mm gauge (not available from stores). Only very high-end rackets made in Japan are factory strung with BG65 strings with a 0.70 mm gauge.
Pre-strung and recommended
Factory tension: 8-10 kg.
Tension recommended by the brand: 8-12 kg.
The rackets come with a tension that ranges between 8 kg and 10 kg, depending on tension losses that occur during transport. Each brand indicates a recommended tension, generally somewhere between 8 kg and 12 kg. This is to prevent the string or frame from breaking while stringing or hitting. Finally, some rackets have a reinforced frame that can withstand a tension of up to 16 kg.
String pattern: mains * crosses, Stringing instructions for 76 holes B = bottom, T = top
22*21.
4-knot stringing instructions
Mains: start from top centre and string down to B9 (skip holes T7, T9 and T11). Go through B12 towards T16, then go back to T14, down to B10 and finish by tying off at B8. (same other side)
Crosses: Make a knot at B6 and start crosses from B9. Keep on stringing the crosses until T7 (skip holes T12 and T10) and finish by tying a knot at T5.
ENHANCED ARCSABER FRAME
You can be confident of having complete control thanks to this unique frame structure with different degrees of flex at the top, sides and bottom, which reduces instability and twisting upon impact.
Isometric
The Isometric design increases the sweet spot by 7%*. A square-shaped Isometric racket creates a larger sweet spot than a classic round frame by optimizing the intersection of the mains and crosses.
SUPER SLIM SHAFT
A very thin shaft to reduce air resistance and allow you to be more responsive, stringing shots together more quickly
ENERGY BOOST CAP PLUS
The new top cap maximizes shaft performance.
The front optimizes shaft flex and allows for maximum use of the Namd material. The arch-shaped curve stabilizes the racket's frame, preventing the shaft from twisting
T-ANCHOR
The new composite material increases the rigidity of the T joint to considerably reduce the amount that the head twists, resulting in more precision
REXIS SHAFT
A high-performance shaft precisely designed with an original Yonex moulding technique. Improves your hitting performance.
BUILT-IN T-JOINT
The built-in T-joint reinforces the connection between the shaft and frame while reducing twisting for greater control
BOX FRAME
Frame with an extra-stiff profile for a solid, stable feel as you hit the shuttlecock.
POCKETING BOOSTER
Exclusive material that's similar to rubber to make the frame more elastic and flexible.
