    Hi
    I recently bought the Victor auraspeed 90s and throughly enjoyed using it but still need some more time to get used to due to me getting back into badminton after 4-5 years. I wanted to get another racket so I have 2. I was looking into the auraspeed 98k and the only comparison to another victor racket has been with a 90k and not a 90s. If someone has experience with both could you please explain the differences in feel and reccomendation. Just for more information I used a arsaber z-slash 4 years ago and mainly play doubles and have a more aggressive playstyle (continuous heavy smashing from the back).

    The 98k is more powerful and has a more solid feel.
    The 90s is more of an allround racket.

    Thank you for the quick reply. How much of the 98K sacrifices its speed compared to the 90s. If its not much in at all then I will just buy the 98k.

    The 98k is still a very fast racket

    How is the stiffness between the 90S vs 98K?

    98k is stiffer than 90s

    How does the 98k balance feel? Would it be considered even?
