broke my first 2 racquets: the first was a B560 DF a steel shaft raquet. Someone borrowed it and broke the string. He restrung it for me at a higher tension. Soon after while playing in a competition my opponent pointed out to me that my raquet was broken. the second was d first raquet I ever bought, a B-750, first it became deformed then it broke.
I've broken rackets in very stupid ways. I had a woven 8, I wanted to do the hand stiffness test. Unfortunatly, I bent it way too much and the shaft snapped. My heart was broken. Another time, I was at home doing some dry swings and the racket head caught the ceiling, that also broke, this time it was an Apacs racket. So my lesson learned, don't do anything with a badminton racket that your not suppose to do with, only play with it in actual play.
i only broke one racket (an old black knight serie8) in the most shameful way ever... i did a very bad jump smash (back then when i couldnt jump smash...) so i hit the birdie then i hit my knee with my racket... so bad that it broke the T Joint (of the racket, not my knee!) i was screaming in pain and crying for my racket (was my 1st racket ever) while all my friends around were laughing non stop... the lesson i learned is that my knee is stronger than an aluminium T Joint !
My racket (the first one) was a yonex but don't remember the type... Anyway, I was kinda "angry" that match, since I had a very very frustrating opponent.. So I thought: "Let's smash the hell out of this shuttle" I wanted to put so much power into the smash that the racket flew out of my hands and to the ground at an amazingly high speed. Consequence? The frame decided that the ground won, and snapped.
Broke 4 rackets in this 2 years. TSF300A,broke while being strung at 32lbs by a computerized stringing machine.Broke on the 2 o'clock and 10 o'clock position. Broke an AA titanium racket while playing double.Clashed with someone i don't know,a friend of my friend.10 o'clock. Broke a kason carbon 3.0.My first all graphite racket.It just suddenly happends when i play.Broke on 12 o'clock.Sustained some numbers of clashes during double. Broke a bonny ti-v 90 while returning a shuttle.Clashed for some times before it actually fell.One of the best budget racket i've played with.
ahaha woww ! so many accidents well mine was horrible only broke one so far the Carbonex 8400 in Canada i was in the car, tying my shoe, and the racket was on my lap it fell and i closed the car door on it -_-
i only broke one racket. it was a nanospeed 7000. in school there was this huge steel beam above me and i wasnt watching where i was backing up to. one small touch and and it broke at 10 o'clock position. that was very stupid and now i try to avoid carrying my racket there.
that acutally made me laugh, almost attracting the attention of other people in the office anyway on topic.. heres my casualty list: ashaway T5: killed two of these at the 5/7 o clock position due to mishit smashes ahsaway T2: same as the T5 (almost cried, this was my first one-piece racket) CAB 20: got angry, threw it in the air and didnt manage to catch it much to my embarrasment, broke at the 12 o clock position MP 99: one died from a racket clash going for a net kill, the other died after i smacked it against the bottom of my shoe both at the 10/2 o clock position AT 700: mishit on a microfractured frame due to a stringers incompetence
I used my old metal cheap Carlton racquet to swat flies and mosquitoes...clash many times with the ceilling and floor....flies are dead...but racquet survived
snapped a slazenger and my new prince triple threat racquet, both snapped at the handle/shaft from hitting it baseline t play the same shots with my carlton as1 all the time and had it for 6 years no problem

lols, mine's probably the worst out of all you guys. was practicing backhand smash inside my living room. brother sends the bird to me a little too far for my backhand but i still went for it...and kabam i smash my arcsaber 7 which was about 2 months old into a metal chair...frame cracked, then warped like mad...and i was mad....... =( but now i got an arcsaber 10 toudlees!!
Backhand smashing isn't really something to do in a house with a low ceiling and cramped areas . Maybe drives is okay to do, or serves, but definately not back-court backhand strokes.
