I remember the first time I contacted badminton, my family brought me this Razor 10, at that time I have no concept, only heard others say that this brand is very good, but also as a treasure like cherish, but with the passage of time, with more and more, more and more good racket, this racket will naturally be quietly abandoned in the corner. Luckily, thanks to the protection, the racket is still in mint condition, so it’s time to regain the “original sharpness”.
As usual, let’s look at the equipment parameters first:
4UG4, length 675mm, center bar 210mm.
Weight after removing the three layers of film on the sole is about 90g, balance point is about 307mm.
Wind breaker frame, 72-hole line bed, 24lbs warranty.
Line 23lbs YONEX AB, hand rubber soft flash large disk
I have this is the blue model, the paint as a whole gives a fresh and not lose the feeling of detail, the frame of the blue and white two-color transition is very good, and symmetrical pattern design can still be pleasing to the eye. Racket paint I think can still play, and the paint seems to be quite durable? Anyway, I have been in the hands of so long, the racket basically did not fall off the paint ……
The weight of the racket is not too heavy, so I can’t feel any head weight, but the swing speed is good, up to the level of a speed racket.
Sugar is reflected, iso frame in this racket can feel the big sweet spot. The racket has more dexterity in handling small balls in front of the net, and the flat draw is quite consistent. This allowed me to hit good small ball handling in the game that day.
However, due to the positioning of the racket, the mid-range feel was soft, and the downward pressure was not strong enough to kill the ball, which made the performance a bit incompetent. When returning the ball, you need to have a certain amount of power to return the ball to the backcourt. Maybe it would be good to play the role of a “net wiper” in doubles? The good cable makes up for some of the shortcomings of the racket.
I think the passive ball handling is still passable, but still the same problem – a little weak, return, pick up a little directional but always appear the position of the front of the problem, you need a certain level of power to use this racket well.
But overall it was a good “re-experience”.
One more thing, the handle of the G4 is still a bit thick for me!
