[Review Experience] Better THRUSTER RYUGA with two more pounds | VICTOR TK – THRUSTER RYUGA 4U Review

Jayce September 6, 2024 8 0

Introduction In a long, long time ago, the feather world jianghu appeared a magic weapon, it has the most violent pedigree and the most unruly nature, only violent badminton player can handle, ordinary people even if they have, but also can not play out its full strength, for no other reason, this weapon on the line pounds to be higher than 28, in order to play the full power. Time has changed, the feather world rivers and lakes have not much of its figure, about its legend has never been broken. “Black bottom cover”, “blue bottom cover”, “small square head plate”, “large square head plate”, “with C”, “with R”… There are also a lot of black words about it in the jianghu, it is called Ti99, a non-high-pound must not be cool violent attack shot!

To start with such a middle-of-the-road introduction, the author is slightly embarrassed, this review has little to do with the Ti99, the Ti99 type of balance point moderate, the overall weight of the heavy, extremely hard middle pole of the basalt iron heavy sword to put the current has been difficult to cater to the public’s preferences, just the object of the author’s current review and the Ti99 in the optimal threading poundage is a little bit similar to the author in the 25/27 pounds to make the author and his friends around the hard to bear, but in the 27/29-30/32 pounds to make the author and his friends have a lot of fun – VICTOR TK Assault (Attack) Series new TK-Dragon Tooth Blade (4U version). /29-30/32 lbs let the author and friends are cool a batch – VICTOR TK assault (attack) series new product: THRUSTER RYUGA (4U version).

A month ago, my friend who works for Vlogging asked me: Firefox, we are going to release a heavyweight next month, do you want to try it? If you want, I’ll send you a 5U racket, you often play 4U speed racket, this 4U may not be suitable for you.

Of course I want it! I’ve been working hard for the past two years, and I haven’t updated my account in over a year, so I just decided to start over, and I’m in need of material! Still, I turned down his kind offer and very definitely went with the 4U spec! Looking down on who? Who can’t move a 4U offensive shot! (Although I found out later that 4U is a bit heavy for me, but I still have to save face!) The THRUSTER RYUGA was put through the line three times during a slightly stressful two weeks.

First threading

The first time I wore the 25/27 lbs VBS66N according to * customary, played a few times to feel the racket frame is a bit stuffy, the ball can not fly out, very not smooth. Lend to two friends to play are slightly try to be put aside, can not find that kind of playing the new beat of the smooth feeling, one of the friends also said: this racket rod good spring ah, but playing the ball and a little out of the way, playing strange.

The first experience of THRUSTER RYUGA is depressing, the depression does not lie in the speed and all-round type of racket I did not play the feeling, but rather the two kill the ball cannon hastily play a few shots to put it aside, this depression has exceeded the joy of obtaining a new racket, and even began to worry about my review.

Second threading

With the attitude of “no matter what”, I thought I might as well put on a high poundage to see if it’s strong, and the second time I put on the VBS66N, I got the VBS threader to put on a 30/32 poundage, and the first thing I felt when I put it on my hand was: a good crunchy and bouncy feeling!

Although the high poundage makes me need to pay attention to more concentrated power, which distracts my energy and increases physical exertion, the hard and crisp feeling of the racket frame and the toughness of the mid-shot ejection really made me feel good for a few shots! And compared to the previous 28/30 lbs Ti99, 30/32 lbs THRUSTER RYUGA to save a lot of energy, the mid-shaft of the tough popping feeling of the first time reminds me of the TK – Ghost Chop, the same in the high pound after the crisp, mid-shaft of a hint of ejection feeling, just the same specification Ghost Chop is not as heavy as the THRUSTER RYUGA, the threshold of the hand is low, the normal threaded pounds to play up is also very good.

THRUSTER RYUGA racket frame has a very high strength, threading process I have recorded video, interested friends can go to watch a wave, many racquets in the high pound, the frame 2/10 point direction will be obvious contraction, but the THRUSTER RYUGA racket frame in the process of threading almost can not be seen deformation. 30/32 pounds of cool for about 10 minutes, the burden of high pounds seems to be infinitely enlarged, the test racket to warm up, although very cool, but really play doubles some can not keep up, so there is a third time to change the string. Although it was great to warm up on the test racket, I couldn’t keep up with the doubles, so I changed the string for the third time.

Third threading

In my friend’s hands, THRUSTER RYUGA experienced the third line change in a fortnight, 27/29 pounds, this 4U THRUSTER RYUGA finally became a lot more normal, the frame is crisp and popping, the middle of the stick ejection feeling obvious, and because of the lower poundage after the racket surface is a little softer, attacking the ball can be wrapped in the right way to increase the feeling of downward pressure when the kill shot to improve the directionality of the ball. However, in and friends against the pump still feel the head weight is a little concentrated, I often play this kind of balanced racket and speed racket, continuous flat pump a little more, the wrist will be difficult, as if a little bit of suffocation, a little bit of blockage, lack of smoothness.

Then go back to think about the V record friend’s recommendation, perhaps 5U THRUSTER RYUGA is really my appropriate choice, especially in the last month to play smooth 4U speed 12 second generation, and then play THRUSTER RYUGA as if Sable Cicada carrying Guan’s sword, Yu Ji carrying Xiang Yu’s tripod, Yang Yuhuan flinging the royal grandfather Li Yuanba’s sledgehammer …….

Of course, the actual is not so exaggerated, 4U THRUSTER RYUGA, I warm-up warm-up is still very comfortable, as long as the pace of play is not fast, THRUSTER RYUGA on the pull of the high long, kill the ball, can be very good with the head of the racket inertia and the elasticity of the middle rod to play a high-quality hit, but just to accelerate the tempo of the real play up to the use of the freedom can not be done.

THRUSTER RYUGA plus two pounds after the feeling of killing the ball is very smooth and transparent, listening to the cannon (my friend nicknamed) kill the ball when the cannon sound, really exceptionally envious.

The main purpose of sharing THRUSTER RYUGA’s three stringing experiences with you is to express a point of view: many times a racket is not smooth, not necessarily a bad racket, but also in not choosing the right specification, the right poundage, and the matching string.

Sometimes the thickness and hardness of the rubber will have a great impact on the feel of the racket, the most typical example is the towel rubber and PU rubber, a racket on the towel rubber, the feel will be more direct than on the PU rubber, the weight of the head will be weaker than on the PU rubber, so when the racket is not particularly smooth, you can consider adjusting the characteristics of the racket for some accessories, pounds or threading, a little patience may be able to obtain! A little patience may lead to greater joy.

Although VICTOR has launched a lot of new rackets over the years, but there are not many real offensive rackets, many are such as God Speed 90K, God Speed 98K, TF – claws and other speed (all-round) and offensive racquets, even before the TK – boxer, but also in order to reduce the threshold of the hand, reduce the weight, less violent pure-blooded offensive racket.

In my opinion, THRUSTER RYUGA is the most pureblood offensive racket after VICTOR’s TK-Ghost Chop, maybe it will be slightly higher than the threshold of Ghost Chop, but has a more aggressive paint and physical properties, 4U specifications, I think for most of the players who love to attack is enough, I’m used to the speed and all-around type of racket, 5U specifications will be enough to feed my skin, other heavier specification will not be so smooth. Other heavier sizes are not as fast, and once you get into a confrontation, it’s a bit of a drag.

Finally, a few words about the frame shape and technology. THRUSTER RYUGA’s frame is very special, the finger from the T head slowly touch to the top, the regular box frame to about 1 o’clock position suddenly turned into a wind-breaking structure, the construction of the surface of the racket has an impact on the racket’s resistance to swing, the feeling of touching the ball, and the special structure of THRUSTER RYUGA’s violence and stability may be also achieved. The high modulus hybrid carbon fibre may be the real technological breakthrough, the publicity mentioned that it can further improve the torsion resistance, good torsion resistance is the basic guarantee of the performance of the offensive racket. Many people may not be a fan of this material upgrade, but if you’ve tried pre-2010 racquets, you’ll know how much of a difference it can make in performance.

Attacking racquets have a concentrated weight in the head, and the head is more prone to wobble. Compared to full-face and speed racquets, attacking racquets have a higher demand for twist resistance. The criteria for evaluating a racquet’s torsion resistance is very simple. When you start to think about a racquet’s torsion resistance after hitting it a few times, or after breaking it a few times, the torsion resistance is in all likelihood a problem. A racket with poor anti-twist will have a momentary wobble when you hit the ball hard, and in serious cases, you may even have the illusion that the racket surface suddenly breaks and then recovers immediately, I wonder if you have ever had this experience. In addition to elasticity and weight, clear power feedback, reliable performance, reasonable physical properties and excellent quality control are also important for high-end attacking rackets.

Summary
I think THRUSTER RYUGA is a real sense of pure blood attack racket launched by VICTOR in recent years.

4U specifications for the vast majority of enthusiasts performance is sufficient, often play speed racket players recommend choosing 5U specifications; this racket is recommended to appropriately increase the stringing poundage, in the higher poundage to get a very crisp hitting sensation, because of the excellent elasticity of the mid-shaft, increase a pound or two is also easy to manage; THRUSTER RYUGA has an aggressive coating and heavy flat parameters, increase the stringing poundage to kill the ball when the power feedback is very strong, the high weight of the head makes it have a strong downward pressure. The high weight of the head gives it a strong downward pressure, excellent torsion resistance, and very reliable ball pointing; the stiff centre stick makes this racket a little bit tougher, and the deformation of the centre stick is less than that of the THRUSTER RYUGA Ghost Chopper when hitting the ball hard; the Ghost Chopper Ghost Chopper has the advantage of borrowing power to hit the ball, but the THRUSTER RYUGA Ghost Chopper Ghost Chopper Ghost Chopper is more direct and violent in terms of proactive and strong output of power.
