Hayabusa Ultra, the speed of a sewing machine, not the strength of a pile driver!
Since the experience of HS Plus, 90KM two speed beat, let me on the victory of the fire rose again, and the announcement of the Hayabusa ultra naturally aroused my great interest ~! Ancient text has the following: Guan Guan Ju, in the river’s continent. My fair lady, gentleman’s good martial arts. Falcon ultra is that beautiful and virtuous woman, is a good spouse of the gentleman!
2024 Tang You Cup held in Chengdu, Sichuan Province, and I as a native of Chengdu badminton people, naturally can not let go of this event. Venue doorway of the three major plants and more to attract countless will be the wallet before and after …… I thought I could abide by my heart, and when I saw it, I realized it was my turn.
Ps:It is said that because of this tournament, the dealer stalking victory before releasing 5 at the door of the arena original! Price! Sold! Sold!
Now that the first line has been broken, I’m here to share my feelings about playing.
Non-professional evaluation blogger, photo conditions are limited, we look at the picture a fun on it.
Face value of this thing is very subjective, we like it, do not step on a cupped one.

Comparison of the two falcon shooting frames:

The frame looks basically no different from the naked eye, the frame shape and thickness are basically the same.
Differences:
The Black Falcon is a bit taller than the Falcon U.

Write in the front: I wanted to compare with the Black Gold Falcon, so I borrowed a Black Gold Falcon from a colleague, but before I could experience two games, the Black Gold Falcon died without hitting the racket, landing on the ground, or bumping into the racket. …… So there is no comparison content to present to you.

Let’s start with the conclusion: maybe the Black and Gold Falcon can still be categorized as a speed attack racket, while the Falcon U might just be a speed racket ……
The 5.8mm center stick that is making the most noise:
Does it play? Yes, it does. My friend put it in his hands and said clearly, “It feels like it pops out right after I put some power into it.” I felt the same way. My own feeling is almost the same, my stinky backhand can be added or very good to the bottom line.
Hardness? Medium to high hardness. The power technique can easily hit the shape change. The hardness of the center stick is HSPLUS > 90KM > Hayabusa U > Black Gold Hayabusa.
But when I just got my hands on this center stick, it actually scared me, if you don’t hit the sweet spot, the feedback of the center stick is shaking! Especially after short power braking, you can clearly feel the center stick shaking…
I’ve experienced this feeling before with the AXFORCE 90 Dragon, both of which are thin centersticks, and the phenomenon got a little better after playing for a while, but it didn’t go away. Is this the legendary open shot in the racquet world? I don’t get it, feel free to can join the discussion…
High Balls:
Although the Hayabusa U is said to have a 300+ balance point, it really has a very slight head heavy feel in your hand. It’s still easy to warm up in general, and normal power is still easy on pulling high shots, but there’s so little that this minimal head weight feeling can help you when passive. So much so that I needed a little more force than usual to get the ball to bounce out, and the ball was not solid, I’d say “floaty” to describe his results. With my HSplus (4U), I could tell the quality of the shot as soon as I hit it high, but with the Hayabusa U, I didn’t feel like I was hitting the ball right, and I think it will take me a little longer to get used to it.
Killing the ball:
This is one of the shortcomings of the Hayabusa U: when you go for a big hit, you will feel that you have used 10 percent of the power, but the effect is not 10 percent of the power, but only about 80 percent of the power. It’s because the swingweight is really low… It doesn’t feel like a meteor hammer, and just as I said above that I feel “floaty” in the high range, it also feels like a kill shot. And without the whip gain system, the downward angle of pressure is not particularly sharp, and the path is a little long. (Then again, I’m limited…) This is also a “characteristic” of speed racquets.
Fast, but not heavy: This is not to say that it doesn’t have any offensive power, the focus of this racquet is on continuous offense. The Hayabusa U’s kill shot is very fast as long as you hit it correctly, so it’s not about jumping up and solving the battle with a single shot, but rather, it’s about using a fast kill shot to make the defender’s reaction lag and miss the best time to hit the ball, so that he or she receives a kill shot from the top of the court that is out of place and then continues to attack. Or the opponent is well prepared but the attack is not heavy but just fast, the top of the backcourt is easy to get out of the bottom line. Then at this point Hayabusa U is very no problem.
Hanging:
Perhaps this is more of a test of the user’s technique, at the beginning of my hanging when I was full of surprise, why hang the ball so high and some slow, suddenly realized that such a heavy sense of need to change, in the strengthening of the fingers and wrists of the push action as well as some more than a little bit of downward pressure to be able to get better, the speed of the ball in the middle of the road this is not the colorful place, perhaps it is designed for doubles should be more force, the landing point of the It’s not the distance that counts, it’s the 5.8 center stick that pops the ball out fast and lets your opponent pick it up low and give you another chance to attack.
Defense:
This is Hayabusa U’s strong suit, and it’s still relatively easy on the catch and kill top backcourt. This part of the game reminds me of the 90S I once had, which is also an excellent speed racket. The Hayabusa U has a much more resilient mid-range that makes it easy to top the ball to the backcourt, and if your opponent isn’t a heavy hitter, you can top it until the end of time. And the flexible head and this center stick is a better experience when doing a change of line split, one push and go.
He was also very good at catching and blocking near the net, hardly needing to do much catching, it felt like the racket just popped the ball over. This is also one of the advantages of the speed racket, the subject > attack.
Sealing the net:
That’s a smooth talk together. Closing the net is very comfortable, the slight head weight does not affect the continuous lifting of the racket to close the net, and I even feel that these slight head weights effectively help the downward pressure. We are happy to see the link is to seal the net out of bounds and down the line, but Falcon U seal the net remember the short power above, then the movement is small, the power of short and fast seal the net pressure is very strong.
Flat draw:
This is another great strength of the Hayabusa U. I’ve been emphasizing that the short serve Hayabusa U is great. The small deformation in the center of the flat draw gives the ball good acceleration, fast ball, and also very good change of line, in my few sessions with the Black and Gold Falcon, this is a very obvious contrast, the Hayabusa U’s swing speed and agility are all-around better than the Black and Gold Falcon. The big power draw in the center and back of the court is a little bit like the effect in the kill shot above, with the capacity of a large cup filled with the content of a medium cup…
Frontcourt Minor Techniques:
I don’t want to talk about this part of the game, I think it’s more about a player’s “feel” than the racket’s ability to help you roll a ball over the net and hook it diagonally, so forgive me if I don’t talk about this part of the game.
Here is a clip of the game, I am white, you can see, and my level of comrades should be able to play a reference role in this article!

My suggestion is that it’s better suited for doubles and favors frontcourt type players. If you want to use it for singles then you can just go 3U aftermarket. So, the Black and Gold Falcon is called a speed attack racket by all the players, and I would classify the HSplus and 90KM in my hand as speed attack rackets, but I really think the Falcon Ultra is a speed racket. If this is true, the ASTROX 88S/D next door is a doubles offense racket, so is the Black Gold Falcon/Falcon Ultra a doubles speed racket?
