The Yonex Arcsaber series is known for its precision, control, and balanced performance. Introduced in the late 2000s, the Arcsaber series was designed to offer enhanced shot accuracy and control rather than the extreme power focus of other series. It uses flexible graphite materials to improve shot hold and minimise vibration, making it suitable for players who rely on precision and finesse.
Designed for Control: Unlike the head-heavy Astrox series or the speed-oriented Nanoflare, Arcsaber rackets are more balanced, offering a blend of power and control. The series prioritises flexibility in the racket frame, giving players more "hold" time for the shuttle on impact, which enhances precision.
Introduction of Cup-Stack Carbon Nanotube Technology: Yonex introduced this technology to create a flexible yet durable frame. The Cup-Stack Carbon Nanotube holds the shuttle longer upon impact, allowing players to control the direction and speed more precisely. It remains a core feature of the Arcsaber series.
