Babolat Satelite 6.5 Essential Badminton Racket - Blue

Babolat Satelite 6.5 Essential Badminton Racket is a strong counter-attacking racket. Designed for steady accurate attacks and controlled defence shots the racket would suit most players. Used by pro's Gabriela Stoeva and Kazushi Yamada.

Metricflex System in the shaft combines a powerful shaft with precision aim. The bore inside the shaft is oval in shape. This allows improved flexion on the overhead in the preparation phase. When the arm rotates to open the racket face up the stiffer section of the shaft holds the head steady for precision. This gives the benefits of both flexible and stiff shafts.

GT technology - hybrid material, combining braided carbon fibres and tungsten filaments. Greater stiffness concentrated in the racket head boost both power and control.

SlimT - New thinner construction around the T-Joint has improved aerodynamics by 11%

Powerful Head Size - The head shape improves the size of the sweetspot for improved power across a greater area of the head.

Shaft 6.5 - the ultra thin shaft slices through the air better than ever for faster, more powerful hitting. The shaft is overall thinner, with a thicker cross section for durability and response.

20 x 21 Stringing Pattern - a specific stringing pattern for improved shuttle grip, giving more spin to the shuttle
