FAQs
What is the benefit of the isometric head shape?
The isometric head shape expands the sweet spot, making it easier to hit the shuttlecock and improving your chances of a successful return, even if you don't hit the center of the racket face.
What type of shuttlecocks should I use?
This racket is designed for use with standard badminton shuttlecocks, both nylon and feather varieties.
How do I store the racket when not in use?
Store the racket in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Using a racket cover is recommended to protect it from dust and damage.
How often should I replace the strings?
The lifespan of the strings depends on how frequently the racket is used and the intensity of play. As a general guideline, replace them when they break or lose tension.
Can I adjust the string tension?
The racket comes pre-strung with a fixed tension. The tension cannot be directly adjusted.
How do I clean the grip?
Use a damp cloth to clean the grip. If the grip is worn or damaged, it can be replaced.
What material is the frame made of?
The frame is made of aluminium.
Troubleshooting
Strings breaking prematurely
Avoid hitting the shuttlecock off-center frequently, as this puts extra stress on the strings. Consider switching to a more durable string type if this persists.
Grip becoming slippery
Clean the grip with a slightly damp cloth to remove sweat and dirt. Replace the grip if it becomes worn or uncomfortable.
