      @@iimiboy I was actually thinking now of the Nanoflare nextage instead, since the zforce2 is already a pretty head heavy racket, maybe having the variety of a head light like the nanoflare would be a better option (Although I heard it doesn't produce much power and it's better for doubles player front to mid court which I am not, I'm a singles player) Would you say the Nanoflare nextage is better or the Astrox nextage... or an entirely different racket that's maybe well balanced (If Arcsaber will come out with a nextage maybe?)

    I agree. This racket is amazing. I strung it exbolt 65 at 28lbs. It feels great. My smashes and drives are way more better. I have an astrox 100zz and that is way more expensive.

    Amazing video once again Ken brother thank you for providing the badminton community with succinct yet detailed information about rackets! May I ask if you have any thoughts how it compares to an Astrox 88S? 😊

    • @KenKarsaputra
      @KenKarsaputra  Рік тому

      Thanks for tuning in! Glad this video is helpful! 88S is at a different price bracket and isn’t really a direct competitor. Overview: 88S for speedy attack, Nextage for heavy attack.

  • @iimiboy
    @iimiboy Рік тому +4

    Bought this a few days ago and it is very head heavy and not recommended for doubles but lovely for singles as it's much harder to manoeuvre in those close fast exchanges compared to the 88d pro or similar racket.
    This racket feels much more head heavy than my 3x zf2 3u, 3x 100zz 3u let alone 4u 88d pro

    That is not affordable at all. This nextage is quite expensive for Taiwan product 😂
    I kinda agree similar feeling with 77 Pro, but I need more power so I don’t get that from nextage.
    It is like comparing 88D Pro with 100ZZ. You get something in return, I think i am curious whether Yonex will revive Z Force III or make it Pro.

      It is a great choice especially if you have heavy attacking play-style, the head heaviness made it feel weighted enough for a good punch. Try it out in person if you can, to see if 4U Nextage is too light for your choice
