Hiya, I'm lookin to sexy up a bit and get a backpack style bag instead of a duffle type. I rather pack it on my back than lug it on one shoulder. I was thinking the Yonex 8112 style, but has anyone tried this bag before? Comments? http://www.yonex.co.uk/Tennis/Product.aspx?ProdID=1028 I need to fit 2 racquets, shoes, 3 or 4 tubes of feathers, a T-shirt and shorts. (and maybe the odd left over candy bar). Does this have enough room for that? I'm dimension impaired so Thanks for your help!!!
That pic shows 2 racket handles sticking out the corner. Compare a tennis racket with a shuttle tube to get an idea of size. There may be just about enough space for your 4 tubes and rackets and small amount of clothes when well packed and dry. Shoes maybe not - that bag looks a bit flat. In the past when I tried backpacks with racket handles sticking out like that after walking some while the rackets would start to lean over and make it a bit awkward. It needs a strap or something in the bag to hold them vertical, not just the zipper. I use an rsl explorer 1 bag, If you dont need to have a yy bag its a good choice. http://www.badmintoncentral.com/forums/showthread.php/81431-RSL-Explorer-1-Backpack
Thanks Johnv. Poo. I kinda like the square look. Good suggestion on the RSL E1. After poking around I think i'm now on the hunt for the E1.1 Thanks again for the help
