SEM images download link BG-80, Yonex Aerobite and Yonex BG-66 Ultimax stringsYonex BG-80, Yonex Aerobite and Yonex Aerosonic under the microscopeThis is the first post of the Badminton Under the Microscope series and in this post, we will be looking at Yonex racket strings using two types of microscopes, an optical microscope and a scanning electron microscope SEM. The models of strings that we are going to looking at today are the legendary Yonex BG-80 in both pink and sky blue, the up and coming ultra-popular Aerobite including the Aerosonic which is used as a cross string, and ultimately the BG-66 started with the optical microscope. I took a craft mat and used it as a base for the optical microscope. Then, using my fingers to hold the string in place, I adjusted the microscope to focus and magnify the strings. For the SEM, I had to cut the strings into tiny bits, small enough to fit into the 1cm diameter carbon dot of the vacuum chamber. Let's take a look at the pink BG-80 string first. At 25 times magnification under the optical microscope, you can see how clearly printed the BG-80 printing is. If you have your badminton racket with you, go take a closer look at your strings now to feel how much magnification we've had to clearly see the printing on our strings. You can also see that there are plenty of fibres encased in the pink outer casing of the string. I tried to use the tweezers to poke and mess around with the nylon filaments inside and they actually felt very soft and has a stretchy feeling to it and as they're nylon filaments, which tend to be stretchy and able to store energy under you also noticed the little holes on the string? I have circled them out in blue in the photo above. BG-80 is known for having a grippy and rough feel on its surface but I did not expect to see holes in the casing of the string. Moving on to the sky blue version of the BG-80, here you can better see the internals of the string and the holes perhaps due to its more transparent outer casing. It looks like there are plenty of filaments and fibres in the core of the string, which is not surprising as all Yonex badminton strings are multifilament strings. The image from Yonex's BG-80 packaging shows that there are weaves on the outer casing of the string, and I was really pleased to be able to see those weaves under the optical microscope, though I must say that the weaves are not is a photo of the BG-80 magnified to around 25 times in the SEM. Can you see the holes on the string clearly? We now move onto the Aerobite. Stringers and users of the Aerobite know this string really grips and bite onto the shuttle. From my recent racket research of players at the Tokyo Olympics, I realise there are quite a number of players using the Aerobite. They are easier to spot than other strings because of their dual coloured nature with the mains and crosses in different string colours. The main string is the one that is grippy, whereas the cross string is actually the Aerosonic string which is superfine and very smooth in comparison. Let's start by looking at the grippy mains. Under the optical microscope, you can see that there are two little triangles or love hearts before the 'Aerobite' printing. So far I've not seen these shapes on other strings. You can also see that the weaves are finer and tighter compared to the BG-80 and there are some slight holes on the casing of the string as well. Perhaps this is a design feature of grippy badminton strings from Yonex. Aerobite vs AerosonicAt the core of the Aerobite string, you can see how fine these individual strands are. If we were to optically compare the Aerosonic cross string, instantly you can see the string is smoother and less textured compared to the red Aerobite main string and it is also thinner in diameter. Aerobite vs Aerosonic vs BG-66 UltimaxHere's a further comparison with the BG-66 Ultimax. The Ultimax is clearly shinier than the rest of the group and also has a very fine weave of its outer casing. You can see how bumpy or more textured the casing of the Aerobite is compared to the Ultimax. The Aerobite is also slightly thicker than the Ultimax. You can see how smooth the Ultimax is and thicker than the Aerosonic under the microscope. The Ultimax also looks a lot shinier under the light. Let's now look at the internal filaments of the Ultimax. Below are the images of the Ultimax magnified at 50 times, 100 times and 200 times respectively under the SEM and you can see how the casing is slightly crushed on the bottom whilst some of the filaments are squashed before breaking off. Based on the scale of magnification, I estimate each nylon filament to be around 20 microns and that's less than half of the thickness of a human hair which is typically around 70 microns!Here are images of the inner filaments from the SEM when they are cut without a super sharp pair of cutters. They go everywhere and you can see how fine each filament is. Imagine how many strands of filaments are needed to make a single hope you've found this post interesting.

See you in the next one!SEM Images full resolution download link HERE String-Test 2020 YONEX Strings YONEX has been supplying the international tournament world in badminton with its strings for years. The YONEX BG 80 has become the most popular badminton string among professionals. But there have also been some innovations in recent years such as the super-thin Aerosonic mm or the aerobite hybrid stringing for badminton took a closer look at how these developments compare to the top strings that have been tried and tested over the years. About the methodology In order to be able to concentrate fully on the differences between the strings - just like in the first string test - all strings were again pulled with identical hardness 11 kg on identical rackets the new YONEX top racket NANOFLARE 800. As always at BADLAB, the test criteria for our 5 testers were not just any laboratory measurements, but the personal impression of every single string on the racquet. Since we do not make our tests for professional players, but for ambitious recreational players, our testers are a well mixed team of highly ambitious recreational players up to the national league level. The character of each string was evaluated according to 8 criteria on a scale from 1 not applicable to 5 fully applicable. So the maximum score is a 5th, but this time we have refrained from making an "overall score" per string to focus your attention more on the differences between the strings. After all, in the end it's all about finding the string that suits each individual player. Let's start with the hard facts YONEX AEROSONIC - 0,61mm rating 1 2 3 4 5 Average 1. The string conveys a good feel for the stroke touch/feedback - - - 1 4 4,8 2. The string has good elasticity and damping properties - - - 3 2 4,4 3. The string retains its elasticity trampoline effect for a very long time - - - 2 3 4,6 4. The string supports a good length on Clears - - - 2 3 4,6 5. The string supports my underhand play in defense - - - - 5 5 6. The string provides good control during short game cut or short crossball at net - - - - 5 5 7. The string offers a rich, controlled power transmission in hard smashes. - - - 4 1 4,2 8. The string impresses with a good "sound” - - - 1 4 4,8 Rating The YONEX AEROSONIC / mm is the only string to achieve the unanimous top score of in individual categories - with "good control in short game" and "supports my underhand play". The AEROSONIC also received a top score of for "good feel", and the thinnest string in the test mm also managed to achieve the best score of all strings in the "Sound" category. But this very thin string also has its limits, namely when it comes to power transmission and a rich feel when smashing. For professionals it therefore "only" appears as a cross string in the Aerobite and Aerobite Boost hybrid sets. For all other players who prefer feeling and perfect control in short game, the YONEX AREOSONIC with its incomparable sound is our top recommendation. YONEX AEROBITE - 0,67 / 0,61 mm rating 1 2 3 4 5 Average 1. The string conveys a good feel for the stroke touch/feedback - - 1 3 1 4 2. The string has good elasticity and damping properties - 1 - 2 2 4 3. The string retains its elasticity trampoline effect for a very long time - - 1 2 2 4,2 4. The string supports a good length on Clears - - - 3 2 4,4 5. The string supports my underhand play in defense - - - 4 1 4,2 6. The string provides good control during short game cut or short crossball at net - - - 3 2 4,4 7. The string offers a rich, controlled power transmission in hard smashes. - - - 3 2 4,4 8. The string impresses with a good "sound” - - 2 2 1 3,8 Rating The YONEX AEROBITE / mm has been the pioneer in hybrid stringing sets since 2016. What has been common practice in tennis for years has now been successfully brought to the badminton market by YONEX two different strings are pulled lengthwise and crosswise onto the racket. In badminton, the main aim is to get the badminton into a spin more effectively during the short, cut shots at net. The coloured longitudinal string of the AEROBITE is a mm thick coated PU string with a very high coefficient of friction. The very thin mm cross string is the ultra-thin AEROSONIC string described above in the test. In our testers, this string combination also impressed with very good values for the length of Clears and the controlled power transmission of hard Smashes. All other evaluations speak for themselves and prove that the first hybrid stringing in badminton is an absolute hit. This is also known among the top players in the world. Currently, YONEX AEROBITE is played, for example, by Kento Momota, Carolina Marin, Lin Dan, Mark Lamsfuss and Viktor Axelsen. YONEX AEROBITE BOOST - 0,72 / 0,61 mm rating 1 2 3 4 5 Average 1. The string conveys a good feel for the stroke touch/feedback - - 2 3 - 3,6 2. The string has good elasticity and damping properties - 1 1 2 1 3,6 3. The string retains its elasticity trampoline effect for a very long time - - 3 - 2 3,8 4. The string supports a good length on Clears - - - 2 3 4,6 5. The string supports my underhand play in defense - - 1 3 1 4 6. The string provides good control during short game cut or short crossball at net - - 2 1 2 4 7. The string offers a rich, controlled power transmission in hard smashes. - - 2 - 3 4,2 8. The string impresses with a good "sound” - 1 2 2 - 3,2 Rating The YONEX AEROBITE BOOST = / mm is the second hybrid string of this series. As the longitudinal string here, an extra thick fiber wound from Vectran twice as thick as nylon was used, which with its diameter of mm not only ensures significantly longer durability but also reduces the loss of energy on impact. The cross string is the ultra-thin Aerosonic here too. Practical tests have shown that the YONEX Aerobite Boost with its top value of is right at the top in the category "support of a good length at Clears". Compared to the normal aerobite, however, our testers could not find any other advantages. Kevin Sanjaya Sukamuljo, the No. 1 in the world-ranking list in men’s doubles, currently plays this string combination, for example. . YONEX BG 80 - 0,68 mm rating 1 2 3 4 5 Average 1. The string conveys a good feel for the stroke touch/feedback - - - 1 4 4,8 2. The string has good elasticity and damping properties - - 2 3 - 3,6 3. The string retains its elasticity trampoline effect for a very long time - - - 3 2 4,4 4. The string supports a good length on Clears - - - 3 2 4,4 5. The string supports my underhand play in defense - - - 3 2 4,4 6. The string provides good control during short game cut or short crossball at net - - - 1 4 4,8 7. The string offers a rich, controlled power transmission in hard smashes. - - - 2 3 4,6 8. The string impresses with a good "sound” - - - 4 1 4,2 Rating As expected, the YONEX BG 80 / mm was convincing in every respect! Almost all ratings have a peak value. It is therefore no wonder that the YONEX BG 80 is one of the strings most played by professionals. The fact that the string delivers a good hitting feel is beyond question with our test results. But the real strength lies in the rich, controlled power transmission in hard smashes. On this point, the BG 80 achieved the maximum value of over all strings in the test together with the BG 65 Ti.The Yonex BG 80 is a little rougher than the Yonex BG 65 and therefore balls can be cut better. However, it is also rubbed through faster. We recommend this hard top string preferably for tournament allround players. The Yonex BG 80 is currently played by world class players such as Kevin S. Sukamuljo, Chou Tien Chen, Lee Yong Dae, Anders Skarup Rasmussen YONEX NANOGY 95 - 0,69 mm rating 1 2 3 4 5 Average 1. The string conveys a good feel for the stroke touch/feedback - - 2 3 - 4 2. The string has good elasticity and damping properties - - 2 3 - 4 3. The string retains its elasticity trampoline effect for a very long time - - 3 1 1 3,6 4. The string supports a good length on Clears - - 2 2 1 3,8 5. The string supports my underhand play in defense - - 3 1 1 3,6 6. The string provides good control during short game cut or short crossball at net - - 1 4 - 3,8 7. The string offers a rich, controlled power transmission in hard smashes. - - 1 4 - 3,8 8. The string impresses with a good "sound” - 1 4 - - 2,8 Rating The YONEX NANOGY 95 / 0,69 mm is far above average in all our test criteria, but the special strength of this string is in our testers' opinion its elasticity and damping properties as well as an excellent feel for the hitting. The CS Carbon Nanotube material combines optimum speed, maximum rebound power and excellent recommend this medium hard string to players who focus on speed and durability. No wonder that one of the fastest men's doubles players, Keigo Sonoda from Japan with world ranking no. 4, plays the YONEX NANOGY 95. YONEX BG 65 - 70 mm rating 1 2 3 4 5 Average 1. The string conveys a good feel for the stroke touch/feedback - 2 2 1 - 2,8 2. The string has good elasticity and damping properties - - 2 3 - 3,6 3. The string retains its elasticity trampoline effect for a very long time - 1 3 1 - 3 4. The string supports a good length on Clears - - 3 2 - 3,4 5. The string supports my underhand play in defense - 1 4 - - 2,8 6. The string provides good control during short game cut or short crossball at net - - 5 - - 3 7. The string offers a rich, controlled power transmission in hard smashes. - - 4 1 - 3,2 8. The string impresses with a good "sound” - - 1 4 - 2,8 Rating The YONEX BG 65 / mm is one of the most popular standard strings worldwide and a solid all-rounder. This is also reflected in the midfield assessment of our testers. The elasticity and damping properties are particularly noticeable here. But the biggest advantage of the BG 65 is clearly its durability. From our point of view, this durable string is therefore a top choice for all those who play with nylon balls. But also NG Ka Long Angus, currently ranked No. 9 in the men's singles world rankings, prefers the YONEX BG 65. YONEX BG 65 Ti - 0,70 mm rating 1 2 3 4 5 Average 1. The string conveys a good feel for the stroke touch/feedback - - 1 3 1 4 2. The string has good elasticity and damping properties - - 3 2 - 3,4 3. The string retains its elasticity trampoline effect for a very long time - - 1 4 - 3,4 4. The string supports a good length on Clears - - - 4 1 4,2 5. The string supports my underhand play in defense - - - 5 - 4 6. The string provides good control during short game cut or short crossball at net - - - 5 - 4 7. The string offers a rich, controlled power transmission in hard smashes. - - - 2 3 4,6 8. The string impresses with a good "sound” - - - 3 2 4,4 Rating The YONEX BG 65 Ti / mm cannot be compared with the normal BG 65 due to the shock-absorbing Titanium coating. Our testers felt that immediately. Although the BG 65 Ti also has one of the strongest diameters in the test with mm, it feels much thinner when playing and impresses with a particularly good sound. The biggest highlight of this string, however, was found by our testers in the controlled power transmission during hard smashes. Just as with the BG 80, the BG 65 Ti achieved the best value of overall strings in this category. But top scores were also determined in all other categories. These advantages of the YONEX BG 65 Ti are also used by world-class players such as Marcus F. Gideon and Ratchanok Intanon. Conclusion Just like in our first string test, the BADLAB Racket Team was impressed by the extent to which the different string diameters and materials shape the character of a badminton racket! It's definitely worth experimenting with different strings and stringing tensions instead of just looking for durability - especially if you want to take the qualities of high-end badminton racquets to the limit, and if you play with real feathers! This often makes even more sense than thinking about a new frame. About the YONEX strings in the test The choice of the "right" string is extremely individual. What is my personal playing style? My punching technique? With which racquet must the string harmonize? We, therefore, recommend that you really look at the tables above in detail. Nevertheless, three strings stood out especially for our testers The YONEX AEROSONIC is our recommendation for sensitive players. For us it is the upgrade of the thinnest YONEX string Ultimax 66 so far because although the AEROSONIC is even thinner and more sensitive than this one, it is also more durable. For the demanding all-rounder, our recommendation is shared by the YONEX BG 80 and the hybrid stringing YONEX AEROBITE. Both combine a very good feel with a maximum of control and are therefore played by a large number of professionals. Which of these two strings suits you better personally, we recommend to try them out! A tip in passing Every string tires in the course of time. String your rackets at least once every 3 - 4 months instead of waiting until the string breaks. An elastic string will definitely add to the fun of badminton and improve your game, because it will provide more power and better feedback! If you want to check the condition of your stringing yourself, we recommend the free stringster app, with which we at the BADLAB racket squad of course also work. NEWS As the new YONEX SKYARC - mm was not yet available for this test, we tested it separately for you. 20. February 2020 Let's take a look at the Yonex Exbolt 63 - Yonex's latest string for 2021. In today's post, I will share with you some of its specs and my experience of stringing and playing with Exbolt 63 in two different coloursFirst of all, let's take a look at the external features and packaging. The string comes in yellow and white colours. You might notice that Yonex has rebranded its Repulsion series as Quick Repulsion. In terms of packaging, Yonex has also updated its individual string set packaging slightly and now features an environmentally friendly logo on the back saying it's used some bio-based materials. All good for the planet so that's a good direction!Yonex Exbolt 63On the packaging, Yonex has cheekily given the string an 11 out of 10 rating for quick repulsion so we'll check on that in a bit. Hitting sound and control parameters are both given a 10 out of 10 as new material that is marketed by Yonex for the Exbolt 63 is the Forged Fiber on the outer casing of the string. It claims to produce amazing sounds alongside amazing drives too, let's see!To test the strings out, I strung it on my usual racket, the Arcsaber 10 at 27lbs tension on the mains and 29lbs tension on the cross to make an overall 28lbs new forged fibre outer for Exbolt 63Upon opening the string pack, the initial feelings of the strings are quite matt and dry. It reminds me a little bit of the Yonex Aerosonic, which is Yonex's thinnest string at You can run your fingers through the string and feel slight textures of the string. For the Exbolt 63, I find its surface to be pretty smooth with almost no grip, unlike the Aerobite which is slightly sticky or spent about 4 to 6 hours testing the Exbolt 63 and I feel the string is slightly medium-hard and also feels slightly metallic - definitely in between the 66 Ultimax and Nanogy 98 for me. It reminded me a lot of the Nanogy 98 which has been my favourite string for many years. However, when I looked at the Yonex strings matrix, I was surprised that Yonex had placed the 66 Ultimax and the Nanogy 98 at the same level in terms of feeling the degree of hardness or softness, depending on which way you look. Yonex strings matrix showing the Nanogy 98 and the Ultimax 66 being placed at the same level in terms of feelingPersonally, I disagree with Yonex's classification and would put the Nanogy 98 slightly higher up on the chart, towards the hard feeling region. On the other hand, I would place the Exbolt 63 in parallel with the Aerobite. But I do agree that the Exbolt 63 feels slightly harder than the 66 Ultimax as shown in the string I think the Yonex string matrix should lookPerformance wise, The Exbolt 63 is certainly very "repulsive" - I mean this in a good way of course and here's my that is caught with good timing in the sweet spot will just scream off the racket with a lot of pace. You can actually hear that the strings have a pretty clean but slightly "stiffer" sound compared to, say, the 66 Exbolt 63 when strungI also found the Exbolt 63 to be not as forgiving as the 66 Ultimax. Anything that is off the sweet spot will feel quite stiff and doesn't bounce off the racket well. Perhaps this is a compromise that Yonex made in order to increase the durability of the strings. If the shuttle is caught on the sweet spot, you're golden; if it's off the sweet spot, it doesn't feel as good but on the bright side, your string doesn't break easily! Sounds like a pretty good compromise if you ask me. In fact, I have yet to break the Exbolt 63 string even after a fair few mishits. If this was the 66 Ultimax or the Nanogy 98, I'm pretty sure that they would have snapped. So I think Yonex did a good job in striking a balance between feeling and durability for the Exbolt wise, the Exbolt 63 is definitely on the expensive side. In the UK, it costs more than £7 for a pack and over £100 for a I had a pretty good experience stringing and playing with the Exbolt 63. It doesn't kink or knot itself too much when being pulled - pretty good all round!Check out my YouTube video in the link below to hear what it sounds like after stringing.

Take a look at our Complete Guide to Yonex Badminton Shuttlecocks Feathered to learn diving into the details, you may be wondering why you should even care about strings. The string is a core part of any badminton player’s experience as it’s the part of the racket that actually makes contact with the shuttle. This means that the strings are highly responsible for the maximum potential of how well you can hit the shuttle – including both control and repulsion power. Hitting the shuttle in the same way with different strings at the same string tension can result in vastly different results. Even the smallest nuances in the properties of a particular string can be the difference between the shuttle landing in or out of bounds.

The higher the repulsion power, the greater the force you will be able to generate with the string when you hit the shuttle. This is due to a trampoline effect that occurs when the shuttle contacts the string bed and is subsequently ricocheted power typically holds an inverse correlation to the durability of the string since strings with high repulsion power tend to be thinner and thus easier to break through. Players should be wary that repulsion power is also inversely correlated with string tension. This means that lower string tension results in higher repulsion Inverse Correlation is a relationship between 2 variables which move in opposite directions. For example, since repulsion power and durability are inversely correlated, an increase in repulsion power will result in a decrease in indicates the resilience of the strings against wear, pressure, and damage. It is natural for strings to wear down after repeated use from the strings sawing against each other due to hitting the shuttle. The time it takes for the string to break depends on the thickness and material of your strings. Typically, the thinner the string is, the quicker it is to break due to repeated Sound indicates how much noise is made when a shuttle is hit. This helps players gauge if they hit the shuttle properly in the sweet spot or not. If the sound is clear and pristine, it indicates that a clean shot was hit while a muffled sound indicates a mishit. The higher the hitting sound, the easier it is to tell the difference between clean and mishit Absorption indicates how well the string copes with the force of a shuttle hitting your racket. When the shuttle contacts the string bed of a racket, the string and racket will vibrate to absorb the shock of the shuttle. Any remaining vibrations will be absorbed by the player’s arm and body. This phenomenon causes a delay to the player as he/she will need to recover from the shock. The better a string is at absorbing shock, the fewer the vibrations that will be transferred to the player, and subsequently the faster the player will be able to recover from the indicates the degree to which, upon execution of a hit, a player is able to influence the shuttle’s flight. Control is generally inversely correlated to repulsion power, as a reduction in the trampoline effect will allow players to hit with more accuracy and ProductsHere we will introduce each of the Yonex badminton string products along with their product specific attributes such as core, outer, coating and gauge.

The Vectran™ Super Fiber core and oval-shaped outer of the mains minimizes the loss of energy upon impact, translating to explosive repulsion of the shuttle.

This string is geared towards younger players, older players, and beginner/social players who may not yet have the power or techniques themselves to send the shuttle deep into their opponents’ court.
