Racket Review at 3rd Line:

Yonex VT Z Force 2 is no boube a powerful racket when we tired it in court. WIth latest material and state of art manufacturing technology , Yonex developed new frame designed which gives extremely powerful shots from 3rd line. We could clear the shots from 3rd line with minimum effort.

Yonex used compact frame and you can feel the different on court. Earlier version (Z force ) was equipped with larger sweet spot as compare the ZF2. SO we faced some power losses for mis hits. However ZF2 aerodynamics is better than ZF. So we observed massive swing speed and enjoyed it from 3rd line.

Racket Review at Midline:

Due to its improved aerodynamics , we observed following benefits:

  1. Racket maneuverability is improved which helps in placing better drive and cut shots from mid court.
  2. Overall Head size is less which gives better swing speed so we place fast cross corner shots.
  3. Thin shaft provided better repulsion . Extra power is observed in drives.

(1)Flexible Shaft      (2) Stiff Shaft

  • Flexible Shaft:

Flexible shaft are those which flexibly when try bend it. Ref Image. Different
manufacturing companies used different material to make shaft flexible. Like
Yonex used HM graphite to make shaft flexible. While, Li Ning Used Graphite
material to make shaft flexible. Flexible Shaft provides following performance
advantages to player.

(A)  Quick Repulsion :

Flexible shaft have tendency to bend opposite to shuttle hit direction. During bending
its store the impact energy developed by shuttle. Flexible shaft does not hold
the shuttle for longer time thus doesn’t provide extended strength to shuttle.
Quick repulsion is suitable for drive shots, quick return to opponents.

  (B)  Moderate level of Shuttle placement:

As shaft of the racket flexible nature of shaft, it creates vibration on frame.
Due to vibration, placement of shuttle may get deviated from target. Modern
racket comes with additional innovation to overcome this problem. For E.g.,
Yonex used T Anchor technology to minimize the vibration in flexible shaft.
These new innovation helps in better racket characteristics.

Flexible shaft with modern technologies will be suitable for those players who want all
round type of game play. Player with defensive playing style will definitely

great extent. Heavy racket considered good for powerful game but heavy racket
gives sluggish swing speed whereas lightweight racket gives fast racket speed
and quick repulsion. Yonex used U nomenclature to define the racket weight and
it is like 2U (90 to 94 gms),3U (85 to 89 gms), 4U (80 to 84 gms) and 5U (70 to
75 gms). 5U rackets are considered as feather light rackets, Yonex Arcsaber FB
is considered as feather light racket. Most common weight category is 3U. Li

ISOMETRIC_7
ISOMETRIC_7

Player who already tried Z force 2 or any head heavy racket will feel some power loss when try to hit shuttle deep in the court. Duora 10 is not head heavy. You need to put extra power to clear the shuttle while on smash it is difficult to manage the power as compared to Voltric series of racket. With comparison to Nanoray Z speed , hitting power in good enough to dominate opponent.

Review on Defense:

The main strength of the racket is its defense. With Aero Side of frame, player will get more opportunities to make versatile shots. Its shaft is flexible, swing speed is good while it’s a lightweight racket. With these 3 qualities ,player will get  upper hand in making quick drive shots , quick return shots, player can adjust the racket at last time to surprise the opponent.

Feedback of Racket:

At 3rd Line:

Z strike is Stiff Racket which gives extreme power on shots.  When we tried racket with Box side then with less power shuttle is able to clear the line.

Difference of Hyper MG graphite material is something which we observed when tried drive shots.

With very quick time span we are able to drive shuttle into opponent court with more accuracy. Player can try, Aero side frame section better results.
