Yonex BG80 power

**Maklike Tier** · 11-10-2011, 12:04 AM

I got my ZM67 Red from stringers world in the uk. Good price, reliable and surprisingly quick postage. And about a third the price of BG80P JP. Can't say I can see the value yet, but I'll know better after a few weeks of use.

i just strung my two rackets with BG80P.

N90II - 28lbs
VT80 - 28lbs

it seem that if the stringer use the electronic string machine, the tension is maintain better because of the pre-stretch setting. let me try it first... if good, i will not go for those cranking stringing machine.

Finally got BG80P done properly at 25lbs on my AT900P and I don't like it

Too soft... Not enough feedback...

You forgot the 'and no power' part.

**WoOZY** · 11-16-2011, 02:55 PM

Well for that I can blame my technique... It's been awhile since I've used the AT900P.... The smashes sound powerful but is really slow... Miss my Shiden with BG66 M

I reckon it's probably great for advanced players at 30lbs, but so far at 25lbs ZM67 Red is pwning it.

do red zymax last much longer than others? my yellow ZM67 strung at 23x25 snapped at first warmup session while 2 of my other rackets strung with red ZM62 strung at 24x26 n 26x28 is still works fine after 40 hours each :s

Also in white only?? What a crock ... or is it white power time

? I guess they weren't kidding about a shortage in the orange ones ... or they were just premature with their digital leaflet listing both colours for the EX version ...

Ask Ruud Bosch for some of the other colour?

It says "BG80P isn't really that good at tensions below 30lbs, and if you use it at 24lbs like Maklike Tier does, you're 20% dumber than someone who strings at 30lbs."

Badminton String/BG80 Power/R&D Background/Special Points
Badminton String's needs and direction->mainly for offensive players, The need for more repulsion and power increase. Mostly for male offensive player who likes higher speed produced by higher tension and hard feeling. (no comment on hard feeling)
Consumers demand
-Power and faster smash
-Durability under high tension

OK, got to go back to work.
