A stiff, even-balance ArcSaber with a smaller, narrower head that gives a lot of pace to players who time the shuttle well. Reviews call it powerful but hard to master, with frame shots for anyone whose timing is off.
- Strong smashing power for an even-balance frame
- Quick to move at the net
- Stiff shaft feels precise when timing is good
- Small sweet spot punishes off-centre hits
- Described as a high-risk purchase: some players sold it within weeks
- Stiff shaft and 24 lb max tension limit fit for some players
Where to buy
