    I've been trying to purchase a new racket, but I am having trouble finding the right racket.
    I'm looking for a racket that is balance or slightly head heavy and with a shaft somewhere around a medium stiffness.

    I've been looking to get a new doubles racket and I've stumbled upon the Victor Brave sword 12 and Yonex voltric 70 e tune.
    I would say I'm intermediate.
    Also what is the difference between the brave sword 12 and 12l?

    Hi, the bs12L is 4u and has a smaller grip size than the bs12, other than that it's just the colour that's different.
    The bs12 is a great racket for doubles as long as you like a little flex in a racket, I've not used V70E so I can't comment on that.

    I have been using a headlight 4u racket with similar specs as the bs12. I have also been suggested the V70E from a friend, therefore I included it.

    If u r into headlight rackets that emphasize in speed and defence, the likes of Yonex Nanoray, Victor Jetspeed and the new Yonex Nanoflare comes to mind with a aerodynamic/diamond frame that slices thru the air with minimum air resistance. Each of these may suit your needs depending on the shaft stiffness you prefer:
    Flexible shaft: Yonex Nanoray 750
    Mid stiff shaft: Yonex Nanoray 700, Victor Jetspeed 12
    Stiff shaft: Yonex Nanoray 800, 900, Nanoflare 700, Victor Jetspeed 10, 11

    try astrox 77, it's head heavy but doesn't feel too heavy (probably due to rotational generator system), and it is medium flex.

    You can also try Lining Turbocharging 75 (n9ii) and 3D Calibar 900 Boost (n90iv) both are slightly head heavy and medium stiffness, also suitable for doubles.
