    Hi Guys

    I have been out of badminton for around 25 years, just got back into it a month ago mainly to improve fitness and cardio, playing with my son Cab21 SP, old tech but trusty whip. I still have an old steel shaft Yonex (blue alum frame), Cab 8, Cab 20, Cab 21. Previously had one of those weird-flattened-at-mid-point-shaft-dont-remember-which-model Carlton and a Cab16(?)

    I experienced a rekindled passion for badminton as of 2 days ago which started with a visit to the local store to get my 7 yr old son a racquet for his birthday. What would a new tech (to me!) racquets feel like..., on a whim with the store owner's recommendation, I bought an Arcsaber 5 and a pair of Asics shoes.

    Oh my God! These new racquets are amazing! Effortless, so light, powerful and lets one concentrate more on just playing the game. i'm hooked. Just one session and I'm scouring the Internet and found this site. Now wondering what the Arc10s and AT900 must be like, will post queries later on the relevant thread but most info I have searched.

    Anyway its looking great and looking forward to catching up with current tech to find what would be most suitable for my moderate badminton skills!

    Forget about the Arc10 and AT900T or Power, good as they are, and instead go for the Voltric 70 (preferably 4U) which is significantly better. I would say it is Yonex's best badminton racket to date.
