WHICH RACKET SHOULD I CHOOSE?

Below, you can read more about which racket suits you and your game best. Unfortunately, we often see people playing with a completely wrong badminton racket compared to what they should be playing with. We understand that many rackets have attractive designs, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's the right racket for you.

Therefore, we have tried to put together this guide so you can learn more about the factors to consider before finding your next or maybe first racket.

If the guide is not helpful enough, you are ALWAYS welcome to contact us! With our range of +45 racket models and more than 60 variants, along with our many years of experience, we will definitely find the right badminton racket for you!

 

WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION

All badminton rackets, regardless of brand, are produced with 3 weight distributions:

 

  • Headlight
  • Even balance
  • Head-heavy

 

The weight distribution in the racket is also what is called the racket's balance. This is where you decide whether you want a racket with power or a racket with fast swing speed. Of course, you can also "mix" both preferences, and then you will get an even balance racket.

 

HEAD-HEAVY

If you are looking for a racket that can help add more power to your shots, you may consider looking at a badminton racket with a head-heavy weight distribution. With a head-heavy racket, you achieve the 'hammer effect' as the weight is at the top of the racket.

 

HEADLIGHT

If you are, however, seeking more speed, a headlight racket might be the answer. Here, you compromise more on the power in the shots, but, in return, you can add much more speed to the racket swing itself. Therefore, many doubles players use headlight rackets, as they can engage in the fast, often flat play typical in doubles matches.

 

EVEN BALANCE

If you play both singles and doubles and want a combination of head-heavy and headlight weight distribution, then there is Even Balance. It means that the weight distribution is even and is, therefore, a compromise between head-heavy and headlight weight distribution.

FLEXIBILITY

Just like with weight distribution, there are also three versions of flexibility.

 

  • Flexible
  • Medium flexible
  • Stiff

 

The flexibility in the racket's shaft determines how much power or precision one desires in their racket. However, one should choose the racket's flexibility based on their level. Unfortunately, we see too many people playing with the wrong flexibility compared to their skill level.

 

FLEXIBLE

If you are a beginner or relatively new to the sport, we always recommend a racket with a flexible shaft. This allows you to get more power in your shots and length/power in your strokes. It is much better to have added power in the shots than to place the balls precisely.

 

MEDIUM FLEXIBLE

If you have been playing for several years and maybe participate in tournaments, then you should read more here! A racket with a medium flexible shaft is one of the most preferred choices and suits 70% of all players. Here, you get the flexible shaft, just a little stiffer, allowing you to better control the balls without compromising on power.

 

STIFF

A stiff shaft contributes significantly to precision, and therefore, it is primarily advanced/elite players and top players who play and should play with a stiff racket shaft. The reason is that you don't get much "help" in the racket.
