Expert Review:
The Yonex BG80 excels in delivering explosive power through its high-repulsion characteristics. The Vectran fiber core provides exceptional energy transfer, making smashes noticeably more powerful and penetrating. The string's quick snapback response enhances shuttle acceleration, giving players a distinct advantage in attacking situations.
While designed with an intentionally hard feel, the BG80 still maintains reasonable touch sensitivity for delicate net play. Advanced players will appreciate the crisp, responsive feedback that allows for precise shot placement. The firm tension helps maintain consistent string bed response throughout extended play sessions.
FAQs:
What is the ideal string tension for Yonex BG80?
For most advanced players, 24-28 lbs provides optimal performance. Higher tensions (26-28 lbs) maximize control and power, while slightly lower tensions (22-24 lbs) offer more comfort and touch.
Yonex BG80 or BG80 Power: Which one is better?
Both are ideal for hard hitters who want a durable badminton racket string. The BG80 Power is more forgiving because of its softer feel. Hence, it is better suited for beginners and intermediate players. On the other hand, the original Yonex BG80 has a hard feeling and is recommended for advanced players. It offers a quick repulsion to make your smashes even more powerful than before. And, the hitting sound makes for an incredible playing experience.
Is the BG80 suitable for beginners?
No, the BG80's hard feel and high repulsion characteristics are designed for advanced players. Beginners should consider softer alternatives like BG80 Power or BG65 for better comfort and control development.
What's the expected string life?
With regular play (3-4 times per week), expect 2-3 months before restringing. Competitive players may need to restring more frequently to maintain peak performance, while recreational players might extend this to 4-6 months.
Can I use BG80 for doubles and singles play?
Yes, the BG80 performs excellently in both formats. The high repulsion benefits aggressive doubles play, while the control characteristics support the varied shot requirements of singles play.
What racket types work best with BG80?
Head-heavy rackets benefit most from BG80's characteristics, as the string's repulsion complements the racket's power potential. Even-balanced rackets also work well for players seeking a powerful, controlled setup.
How should I store the string reel?
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid extreme temperature fluctuations. Properly stored, the string maintains its properties for 2-3 years.
