I just bought a new yonex in the Philippines during my vacation --- yonex carbonex 6 super titanium pro. It was only for 40 $ including bg65 sTrings. I bought it an Tobys Sports which sells only real badminton raquets. Wow how it could be this cheap!! Ive been using it here in Canada for the last month and , have been pleased with its performance. Its fairly stiff, has execellent power if you have a strong wrist. Control is as good as any Carbonex raquet. Draw backs -- not head heavy if you like to smash alot. This raquet is fairly light 3u, which is good for all around play. Did any one else buy this new Yonex? I'd like to know your opinion for a fairly cheap yonex that is made of 100% carbon graphite.
budget racket this racket was released as a budget racket including the carbonex 7 super.. I bought the carbonex 7. Overall it was a very solid all around racquet.. but a little bit heavy compared to my MP25. yes its stiff and has good power for strong players but for beginners they may need to adjust and practice more to realize its potential.. like other cabs it has EXPLOSIVE POWER!!! By the way this racket doesnt have any titanium technology. Only full carbon graphite..
Thanks For The Info Mel Thanks for the info Mel. My friend is going for a vacation in the Phil. I'm going to get him to buy me a Cab 7, coy I like this Cab 6. Do you know the difference between the two? I'm glad that badminton is so popular in the Philippines ---- Finalyl
The higher the tension does not mean the better the performance. You should string to whatever tension you feel comfortable with. For well made rackets in recent ages, 20-25 lbs should be fairly safe for various club level of players, under the assumption the racket is still in decent condition.
I think it would be safe to do it at max 22lb because it is full carbon graphite. Some people have had problems with warping etc
