I don't know why anyone would be skeptical that a million dollar company would be unable to design and implement a simple clip-on strip. It's a clip...on.....strip. Not a rocket. Not a nuclear reactor. A clip. On. Strip.
because some are pessimists by nature? i, for once, is looking forward to new innovations in badminton equipment!!! the cup is half full!!!
I'll be excited when they have piezo-electric materials in the shaft powered by batteries in the handle that allow you to dial-in the stiffness.
If all the strings were on pulleys, then yeah, you could make tension fully adjustable. I often wonder just how many of the strings actually do anything. It would be a good University paper.
flying strips?? they should have extended the clip around the top of the frame so that the strip does not come off and injure opponents eyes. maybe going forward badminton players will have to wear glasses like in squash to prevent eye injury because of flying strips...!
From my discussions with Adidas, the Switch will not be introduced with the reason given that they were not confident enough in the design of the strip. I think it was more a case of evaluating the material rather than the actual fixing system itself. Paul www.badminton-coach.co.uk
not confident enough in the design of the strip?? last time they said that it being tested with pro player and there is no need to worry that it will fly away during hard smash
He already mentioned is wasn't the fixation that needed work but the strip itself (too ugly/simplistic/....). The fixation is fine, we had one Switch at the demo day and it's really sturdy. Unless you change the strips like 10 times a day you won't be losing one anytime soon
What if the strip getting hardened & can't "bite" the lip by the time goes by? New product to sell?? a replacement strip. Maybe, 10 grams strips
Can anyone compare this racket to Victor rackets? I don't expect this racket to be as fast as jetspeed or Bravesword rackets but wondered if it compared to Thruster or Meteor rackets.
