Hi Everyone.

As the topic name suggests, I'm looking for some advice on what Victor racket I can use to replace my now damaged Z-Slash. I'm looking to Victor rackets now as I feel its time for a change. Been with Yonex since I started playing over 10 years ago and should try something new. I would say that I play an even amount of doubles and singles so I need a racket similar to the Z-Slash that can accommodate both disciplines of the sport. So far I've been looking at the Meteor X and Bravesword series, in particular the Bravesword LYD as it offers specs very similar to the Z-Slash.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Bravesword lyd power speed consistency and from what i saw on central sport is 100 pound i think which is an amazing price but my friend have got an Victor London which is also very nice. Also look on my badminton store im sure they still have arc z slash th so might be a good choice for you because i know that arcsaber z slash takes a while to get used to so might as well keep it. Also my badminton store has lots of many racket like li ning n70 n50 also kason c7 or f9 which im using so they all relative cheap compare to other racket from direct badminton or any other retailer so might be a good choice. Also if you do buy from my badminton store they are located in hong kong I think so i will expect it take longer to deliver.

Be careful about referring others to online sellers in different countries. There can be a multitude of problems such as payment of customs duties, and what happens when there is a problem? I do know My badminton Store took around 9 months to resolve a simple torn pair of shoes which had been worn once and it cost the player to send them back without reimbursement.

 

So, headline pricing is not always the way to go.

 

Personally i wouldn't buy a Victor racket from Central Sports. There are other places to go if you know.

 

LYD, Meteor 60, 70 or London are all very good but please don't expect them to play like a Z Slash or you will be very disappointed. However, if you want a good racket then LYD or Meteor 60 would both score very highly indeed.

I'll not be drawn to answer that question in public.
