Victor Brave Sword 1800 D
VICTOR Brave Sword 1800 D - A sword for all occasions
For years, bestsellers with the proven Brave Sword technology have been coming onto the market from VICTOR. Of course, we from the BADLAB "test team" wanted to know exactly what this is all about, so we decided on the new update of the VICTOR Brave Sword 1800 D and put it through its paces as usual. We are curious to see what the "brave sword" with the noble look in the basic colours wine red/silver has to offer.

YONEX ARCSABER 7 PRO
YONEX ARCSABER 7 PRO: Control made easy
In August 2022, the new YONEX ARCSABER 7 PRO was introduced to the market. The BADLAB racket team could hardly wait and immediately took a close look at what this new 7 upgrade has to offer in the practical test during the usual long-term test. Of course, we are also concerned with the question of whether it stands in the shadow of the legendary YONEX ARCSABER 11 PRO or what exactly the qualities of the new ARCSABER 7 PRO are. We find out.

With a diameter of 0.66 mm, it belongs to the midfield of the KIZUNA string series. When we received the KIZUNA D66 strings directly from Japan, the KIZUNA team told us: Especially for hard hitters! Of course we wanted to know exactly how "lusty" the new KIZUNA D66 Duratech string really is and our testers from the BADLAB team strung the D66 on their personal rackets for a long-term test with great expectations.

KIZUNA Strings
String-Test 2020
In the badminton string test: KIZUNA Z58 Premium, the thinnest badminton string in the world as well as KIZUNA D61 Duratech, Z63 X, Z 65 and Z 69 Premium.
KIZUNA, a Japanese company that is still relatively unknown in Europe, has established itself as one of the most popular string manufacturers in Asia in recent years. Responsible is Mr. Abe Hideo, who founded KIZUNA in 2013 and stands for the production and distribution of badminton strings and equipment "Made in Japan". As a long-time badminton trainer and former national coach, Mr. Hideo has made it his goal to develop good badminton strings that support the game of amateur players. Many recreational badminton players lack physical condition and technique. And this is exactly where KIZUNA comes in. Good badminton strings should make you feel like a better player. BADLAB racket team tested to which extent KIZUNA achieved this goal.

At the beginning of March 2020 we received the latest top models of the YONEX ASTROX series from the BADLAB racket team for our proven long-term racket test: ASTROX 100 ZZ and ASTROX 100 ZX. Then Corona came and spoiled our fun for the time being. Fortunately, the first halls were reopened at the end of May so that we could finally get an idea of what - and above all for whom - the ASTROX 100 ZZ and ASTROX 100 ZX are the right rackets.

But there have also been some innovations in recent years such as the super-thin Aerosonic (0.61 mm) or the aerobite hybrid stringing for badminton rackets.
We took a closer look at how these developments compare to the top strings that have been tried and tested over the years.

At the same time, VICTOR has now supplemented its own VBS premium string series and brought it out in a new look. The goal: to have something of convincing quality for every player type.
