Tri Voltage System Gives Powerful racket smashes: Voltric series is head heavy series as per Yonex design. Head heavy series rackets generate tremendous power on smashes as it leads to give more momentum. Further, to improve the head heavy racket characteristics, Yonex used stiff material at racket head which result into optimized shuttle hold time at string bed. By using stiff material at racket head, now player will get better power and control on shots. Yonex further improve the racket characteristics by making thin racket frame side. This improves the racket flex and help in transferring the more energy into shuttle. With more energy transfer, badminton player will get maximum power on shots.

Overall, the combination of head heavy, stiff racket head top and flexible side offer incredible power, speed and control to badminton players.

Tri Voltage System Gives Speedy Racket handling: In order to balance the head heavy effect of racket, Yonex first time used the very thin and aerodynamically shape side at frame head. This type of aerodynamically designed racket head side offers fast racket swing speed by which player gets quick racket response which helps in placing fast drive shots, quick corner smashes and quick response to opponent drives.

Overall, with the help of Tri Voltage System, Badminton player will get maximum power while player don’t need to compromise on racket speed.

YONEX Compact Frame: We all know that Air resistance is unwanted parameter in racket swing speed. More Air resistance means less swing speed. Further, if racket frame size is more than its more racket area will come into contact of air thus more air resistance will affect the racket swing speed. Yonex research team identifies this and developed the frame which is compact in nature. Compact frame will helps in better aerodynamics of the racket results into fast racket handling.

Built in T Joint (More joint rigidity):  Joint of any device is a weaker part and its affect the overall dynamic of the device. In Racket T joint is a weaker part and its affect the racket stability when shuttle hits the string bed. During shuttle impact on string bed, forces are transfer to T joint and if joint is weak in nature then it could cause direction instability of shuttle. Yonex identified this problem and developed built in T Joint. Yonex used Molded deep into the layers of graphite which gives joint free section and provide more rigid racket.

Racket Feedback at 3rd Line:

It is a head heavy racket so player will feel more power during 3rd line shot clear. Racket sound is good and attracts us on court. With very less power we can able to place shuttle into opponent’s 3rd line thanks for Tri Voltage System. Player who wants to test the opponents into 3rd line shots will definitely love to play with Voltric 1 ld.

Feedback at net area:

As it is a head heavy racket so we faced some difficulties in controlling the shuttle at net area but that is very marginal (Yonex putted aero dynamic frame concept to improve the swing speed).  After spending 1 hr time we could able to judge the racket handling at net area and finally able to get the right timing. So finally, it’s performed well on net area.

Feedback on Drive and Cross Corner Shots:

Player who already tried Muscle Power or carbonex series racket can face some difficulties initially to get the right timing. In comparison to carbonex, its response is little sluggish but if you spend some time on court then you will get your timing back. After spending good time in court you will love this racket.

Summary:

Voltric 1 Ld is good option for those players who wants attacking game style with good skills on net and dive shots. In our test, Racket performed well on net area and drive shots. Player needs to do some adjustment in timing if you already using muscle power or Carbonex Series rackets.

Control cap is a concept which is developed by Yonex to improve gripping of racket. Cap is a part which connect shaft with handle. Badminton player hold the racket from handle and finally grip it’s with Cap. Yonex used more flat surface on cap (88% flat surface) which gives opportunity to grip more accurately.

New Grommets Patterns – More Grommets -More Hole: In order to improve the string pattern, Yonex used single passed grommets hole construction system. This type of system gives more grommets hole in same racket frame length which delivers the best in class rackets holes optimization.

Combination of Aero Box Type Frame:

Yonex Used combination of Aero and Box type frame for making the cross section of the frame. Box type frame construction gives better strength while aero type cross section offer better aerodynamics of racket frame. The combination of two certainly helps in improving the overall characteristic of the racket.

Yonex Worked on Two area of Racket frame to improve the performance.

Material properties and Racket Frame Re-Design change at Top Area:

Traditionally, to make racket head heavy, manufacturing companies used extra material at head area so that more racket swing can be generate to get maximum power. But to make racket head heavy, players need to compromise on racket swing as head heavy racket tends to give off balance.

Yonex used, stiff racket geometry at racket top which gives racket bending action in a controlled manner. Further, to improve the flexibility, Yonex used flexible sides so that shuttle gets maximum energy transferred from string bed. By combining both the technologies together (Stiff racket top and Flexible racket side) , Yonex Voltric series racket delivered incredible power and quick racket repulsion.

Material properties and Racket Frame Re-Design change at Top & Bottom Area:

Further, Yonex re design the frame in which racket weight is redistributed at top and Bottom part. By doing so, players get maximum benefits of head heavy racket balance point. Thin cross section at side, gives less air resistance thus player will get better and improved racket swing speed.

Following are key points & Benefits of Yonex Voltric Series:

YONEX BADMINTON RACKET SELECTION MATRIX IN 2017

About this Guide:

M1

Yonex Badminton gives full range of rackets for professional to amateur players. With New and latest technology, Yonex rackets are the choice of professional badminton players. In this guide we shall explain the different models of Yonex racket and How to select as per player need. In Yonex Selection matrix, Rackets are divided into four categories .i.e.

  1. Head Heavy
  2. Head Light
  3. Solid Feel
  4. Soft Feel

Head Heavy:

M8

Head heavy as we all know belongs to rackets where weight of racket is more at head side. This type of racket configurations gives maximum power in stroke. Badminton Head is the main part of racket which holds the racket string from top End. Racket Head weight is a critical parameters. If weight of the racket is more at head side then player will get more power on shots but at the same time it will be difficult to move racket fast. If the weight of racket head less then player can easily move the racket. So we can say that Racket weight is very important for players. Racket Head material is also play crucial role in overall performance of badminton player. If the racket head material is hard and brittle then it will become more stiffer which results into quick shuttle release from racket string bed while if racket head is made from ductile material then it will allow shuttle to flex on string bed and provide more control on shots. As a concluding remarks , Racket head material and its placement of weight plays key role in racket performance so players need to select racket accordingly to playing style
