Graphite Badminton Racquet

Details

A full graphite racquet at 86 g unstrung, even balance, medium shaft flex. Even balance and medium flex is the setting that suits most club players, which is why it is the one we make. A head-heavy stiff frame flatters a strong smash and punishes everything else. The grommet strip is a replaceable part sold on its own. Grommets are the small plastic eyelets the string passes through, and when they split the string cuts into the frame and the racquet is finished. Any stringer can pull a strip and fit a new one in ten minutes if the part exists. Most brands do not sell it. We do, for five years. Rated to 30 lb tension, which is stated as a real limit and not a marketing number. It ships strung at 24 lb with a synthetic gut, and unstrung on request.
