The most challenging and difficult task in front of any badminton player is how to select the right badminton racket. Now some people might think it’s pretty easy, but the players know how big an impact wrong equipment have on the game. Well, professionals follow various ways to select their badminton racquets. But if you are in the process of mastering the sport, it’s better to have a brand preference. The certified brands in India include Li-Ning, Yonex, Ashaway, Head and Dunlop. While checking out the Li-Ning badminton racquets, keep the following things in mind.
The first thing that you need to know is that this brand manufactures racquets in five different series, catering to the needs of five different playing styles. They are:
Mega Power - If your playing style is offence oriented and you strike with maximum power then look for badminton racquets from this series.
Ultra Sharp - If you are one of those players who keep changing between offence and defence then this series is specially engineered for you.
Extra Skill - The racquets in this series are designed for people with quick hands. You enjoy playing with lighter racquets and react fast during the game, then pick one from this range.
Multi-control - Some players have a style that is a combination of strong offense, solid defence and a good control. If you have a controlled and focused playing style then a racquet from this series is perfect for you.
Pro Master - And that leaves us with Pro Master series. This one is for those players who have honed up their skill sets and have a well-balanced style of offense and defense.
But if you want to choose a Li-Ning badminton racquet without following any series, then follow the five-characteristic rule of buying Badminton racquets. You need to check for the grip size for a comfortable hold, and the balance point to know the overall distribution of its weight. Also look at its weight for a comfortable fit, its flexibility and a higher string tension for better service.
