ARCSABER series description
Control-oriented racquets with ARCSABER (replacing the DUORA range) to meet the demands of a versatile, precise game. They have a more or less neutral balance for maximum control and feel.
Weight
83 gr - 4U (80-84 g).
Weight is expressed in grams. Racquets range in weight from 60 grams to over 100 grams, and are classified into "U" weight ranges. The lighter the racket, the more maneuverable and comfortable it will be, the less traumatic it will be for the arm, and the more arm speed it will provide, but the more power it will lack. On the contrary, the heavier the racket, the more powerful it will be, but the less comfortable it will be.
Flexibility
Rigid.
Flexibility is defined by the shaft's ability to deform when struck. A racket's rigidity ranges from flexible to rigid. The more flexible the shaft, the greater the forgiveness and length of the shuttlecock, but the less speed. On the contrary, the stiffer the shaft, the more repulsion it will offer, but the greater the arm speed required, and the less forgiving it will be of hitting errors.
Balance
Neutral.
Balance is the distribution of the racquet's weight. It is indicated in millimeters and measured from the bottom of the handle to the balance point. The higher the handle, the more maneuverable and responsive the racket, perfect for a defensive or doubles player. On the contrary, the higher the head of the racquet, the more power it will offer, ideal for offensive players. On the other hand, it will feel heavier and more difficult to handle.
Composition
HM graphite.
The composition of a badminton racket influences its price. Steel and/or aluminum rackets are solid, heavy and suitable for leisure use. Graphite/aluminum and full graphite rackets are lighter and more popular with advanced beginners. Finally, rackets made of High-Modulus Graphite and other technologies such as tungsten are designed for expert players.
Length
675 mm 10 mm longer.
The length of an adult snowshoe is measured in millimeters and varies between 660 mm and 680 mm. In reality, it's the shaft of the snowshoe that's longer or shorter. The shorter the shaft, the easier it is to handle and the better the feel. The longer it is, the more inertia it offers to accentuate power.
Grip size
G5 = small (80-84 mm).
Grip size is expressed in millimeters. Racquet handle sizes range from 75 millimeters to over 90 millimeters and are classified in size ranges expressed in "G". The thicker the handle, the easier it is to grip, but the more difficult it is to change grip. The thinner the handle, the more dexterity it offers, and the greater the power of the fingers that can be used to impart speed to the racket.
Original rope
Racquets are originally strung with a 0.70 gauge Yonex string mm not commercially available. Only the very top-of-the-range rackets made in Japan are originally strung with BG 65 string with a gauge of 0.70 mm.
Original and recommended voltage
Original tension 8-10 kg.
Brand-recommended tension 8-12 kg.
Original strung snowshoes are tensioned between 8 and 10 kg, depending on the loss of tension due to transport. Each brand then specifies a recommended tension, usually between 8 and 12 kg. This is to avoid any breakage of the frame when stringing or in the event of a shock or string breakage. Finally, some snowshoes with reinforced frames can withstand tensions of up to 16 kg.

4-knot rope instruction
Upright: start at the top center and rope up to B9 (skip eyelets H7, H9 and H11). Pass through B12 to H16, then back to H14 to go down to B10 and finish by tying the knot on eyelet B8. (same on opposite side)
Travers: Tie a knot on eyelet B6 and start traversing from B9. Continue across to H7 (skip eyelets H12 and H10) and finish by tying a knot on eyelet H5.
ISOMETRIC
The ISOMETRIC design increases the sweetspot by 7%*. Compared to a conventional round frame, an ISOMETRIC square-shaped racket generates a wider sweetspot by optimizing the intersection of the main and cross strings.
SUPER SLIM SHAFT
An ultra-thin shaft reduces air resistance and allows for better responsiveness and quicker stroke sequences
ENERGY BOOST CAP PLUS
The new top cap maximizes stem performance. The front allows the shaft to flex and exert the maximum effect of the Namd. The arch-shaped curve stabilizes the snowshoe frame, preventing the shaft from twisting.
T-ANCHOR
New composite material increases T-joint rigidity to significantly reduce racquet head torsion for greater precision
SUPER HMG
This ultra-elastic graphite material (Super High Modulus Graphite) increases repulsion, putting more power into smashes, drives, clears and many other shots.
REXIS SHAFT
A high-performance shaft precisely engineered with an original molding technique from Yonex. Improves stroke performance.
BOX FRAME
Frame with extra-rigid profile for a solid, stable feel on impact with the steering wheel.
POCKETING BOOSTER
Exclusive rubber-like material enhances frame elasticity and flex.
CONTROL ASSIST BUMPER
The eyelets at the head of the racket contain T-ANCHORs which help to stabilize the string struts for greater precision.
