    Hi guys,

    it's a long time ago since my last login here but I still know this is the best badminton community in the world wide web :)

    I need to buy a new racket.
    Currently I am playing with a Yonex Voltric 80. I had two of them, but one is broken and as this "old model" is getting harder and harder to get, here I am searching and looking for a new one.

    Even my playing style is not that aggressive, I am quite happy with my VT80 regarding stiffness and power.
    But in fast doubles I often notice that the head heaviness is sometimes too much.
    As I am playing more singles than doubles this should not have the main focus.

    Therefore I am looking for a racket which is also stiff but maybe slightly not that head heavy as the VT 80.

    I am not very familar with the new yonex racket models and as I am playing since ever with yonex rackets, I would also consider a racket from Victor.

    I discorvered the Victor Thruster K BXR which looks in specifications regarding stiffness and head heavyness good to me. But I also heard that it could take some time to get used to it.
    Do some of you guys are playing with a Victor Thruster K BXR?
    Is it compareable with VT80 in any way?
    Are there other rackets from Yonex/Victor you would recommend for me?

    Thanks a lot in advance!

    VT80 etune without the parts. Less head heavy than the VT80.
