Because same stringing pattern (2+4) So if the holes are a bit further due to frame size, just cut and slot them in anyway.
Great news for badminton players in Singapore as Victor Singapore has launched their products on Lazada http://www.lazada.sg/world-champ-distributor/ Happened to chance upon it and took the opportunity to get myself a JS12 3U with the credit card discounts available on Lazada weekly The racket came well packed. Loving the looks of the racket so far! Cannot wait to start playing with it >_<
No news from Victor and from what i know it i not scheduled for release in Q3. I may know more over the next two weeks. Paul www.badminton-coach.co.uk
Paul, you think a 4U version of this would be better than a 3U for doubles? I'm an intermediate player by the way. Thanks for any help.
hello paul have one question for you do u think using 2 differnt rackets for mixed and mans double is a good idea??? coz im thinking of using js 12 for mens and dura zstirke for mix or u recomend just stick to one??? thanks in advance
I am not an expert like Paul, but I think just using one racket is the best way. However Zhang Nan uses different rackets for MD and XD.
I'm not sure why using one racket only would be better. In golf they use a different club for each shot they're making! In badminton we have different halls that play differently. You have different opponents that require different tactics. You get tired as the tournament progresses. Having a separate racket that suits all of these different situations should be possible.
The way I see it, both theories work, but being versatile enough to use different rackets based on location, type of play/situation and even shuttlecock used is even better.
Also add in mental thinking as well. Sometimes it is just in your head. But only using one type of racket would improve consistency of shots pulled off as your body remembers and learns what it has to do to pull of those same shots. Saying all that I do switch up rackets
The comparison with golf is not very good I think and the differences in the halls are quite marginal if you are just playing in your country.
Racket choice is so personal. I havea bunch of different rackets in my bag because i am either testing them or they are demo rackets. I actually own two rackets. Some players prefer to have a racket for doubles and one for mixed. It's fine if it works for them. I suppose in mixed a man is expected to be controlling from mid to rear court and therefore may refer a heavier racket. After all, male players tend to spend very little time at the net. In doubles they may play with a more powerful partner and therefore it makes sense that there main game is net or defence. A lighter racket may then be preferred. I do not play, I only coach. If I was to play, I would still choose one racket that I feel covers all the requirements of the game. That's my personal take on it but I respect other players will differ in opinion.

I agree with that golf analogy, but use same racquets with different string setups. I'm having second thoughts on it though as I'd rather I was able to adjust.
Yes, with Gold it is something different. They have quite a lot of time for each stroke and get used to a specialized racket for each situation. In Badminton for instance you want to make sure that from a special position you can always make the same shot - then a different racket could lead to miss timing or hitting the net. So most professional players are only using one racket, also they always play in different halls and countries with different climate. I think Zhang Nan is a exception.
Sorry to change the topic for a bit, but can anyone please recommend where I can buy a case for this JS 12 having gotten one just last night? Something like the sample attached.
