    Yonex is going to introduce a new badminton string with a soft feel and high resilience (and control?) By the end of the year.

    The string is marketed for players who need to reach further distance from the backcourt and release the stress on their articulation/elbows. It seems to be oriented for beginners/intermediate players.

    More information in Japanese here: http://www.yonex.co.jp/sp/badminton/news/2019/11/1911201430.html

    Seen it too and was willing to give it a try regardless of his soft string profile (BG80 user) just for the sake of trying because who knows but it was priced too high at 16 euros. In terms of marketing I don't quite understand why a beginner/intermediate oriented product is priced higher than a competitive string. Regardless of the new technologies included. When prices drop I will try it :)

    Because beginners are the ones who are willing to buy Yonex marketing. ;)
