    If I hit a birdie on the frame really hard and it breaks with no previous cracks or any frame damage. Will I have guarantee on it (warranty) So i get it replaced by Yonex Canada?

    Nope, the warranty only cover if the string breaks or cracks the racquet. Like if your in the recommeded tension range and your racquet cracks from it then the warranty will cover cuz its a manufactuer issue.

    I'm not a 100% sure tho.

    But I think it's if the tension is within the 18-24 lbs then if i hit a frame. shot Without any previous colissin (OtHER racket , Floor) Then it's okay I just wanna be sure.

    In theory, it's not covered under the warranty, because hitting the frame is mis-usage. Warranty only covers for obvious manufacture defect, but not others.

    However, it still worth a try, to see whether they can give you a break. :rolleyes:
