Thanks Howard! I'm an old man 5U user now. When are you going to come up to Toronto to play? Did you play Pan Am in 2015?

@howeezy 6 месяцев назад

Yes I was in Toronto for the 2015 Pan Am Games in Markham! Hopefully I can visit again soon!

Can you review astrox 100zz and astrox nextage?

@waterbottlethatalsolikesme1670 6 месяцев назад

hey Howard, thanks for this vid, it's really good:). But i have a question, which would be better in terms of generating power? A 5u head heavy racket, a 4u medium balance racket, or a 3u head light racket? If u chose to answer this, u can take ur time :))

@howeezy 6 месяцев назад

It would depend on what kind of power you're looking to generate. I would say if you are looking for overhead power, it's always best to go with a head heavy racket. Even if it is 5u, I feel the head heavy balance would be the best in terms of generating power for smashes. I find it quite difficult to generate good overhead power with headlight rackets even if the overall racket is heavier. Hope this helps!

Hi brother, plz clarify for me on the racket's grip size G1-G5. Which one is smaller & biggest 🤔

@howeezy 5 месяцев назад

I have a video explaining grip sizes also! Check it out on my channel.

@Totoro88 6 месяцев назад

Hi Howard, I wonder where they put the extra weight between a 4U and 3U within the same model?

@howeezy 6 месяцев назад

Great question. Typically the rackets maintain the same with distribution so my best guess would be that they evenly distribute the added weight throughtout the racket to keep the overall feeling the same.

@WayneManor-qi5mb 3 месяца назад

Hi, which weight would you recommend for a Beginner who is just into badminton recently ? Is heavier the better ? Or should start with lighter racket?

@alancmchan 6 месяцев назад

Great vid. Looking forward to the next one. Which racket weight do you prefer?

@howeezy 6 месяцев назад

I personally still really like the Original 3U Arc Saber 11 but on the Arc Saber 11 Pro I prefer the 4U

@benjiminchew8676 6 месяцев назад

Often times i feel that my 3u 1000z is lighter than my 4u astrox 88s I guess weight distribution is extremely important

@howeezy 6 месяцев назад

exactly! nanoflare are quite head light while the astrox 88s will be more top heavy which is why even though the astrox is 4u, it might feel heavier when you swing it

@user-ww7qh8qq2x 5 месяцев назад

I realized that now my racket is 0U 96grams

@howeezy 5 месяцев назад

Is this with or without strings and grips. Again the weight should be completely without any strings or grips.

@raoanwar178 6 месяцев назад

Should have weight them with getting strings and grips on

@howeezy 6 месяцев назад

That would make it inconsistent because everyone uses different kinds of grips and also cuts the grips different lengths. Weighing the rackets without strings and grips keeps it the most objective measurement for comparison purposes.
