[@JLneonhug]

Hey, CK great video, I sense this maybe help dampen the mis-hits etc. On another topic, do you think you can do some updates/video on stringing? I've been doing it for 8-10yrs and of recently my rackets are becoming more circular shaped rather than oval. I have no idea why this is happening, but I've tried it on other electric machines and it's doing the same thing.. I sense I maybe not tightening the clamps enough but they are "finger tight"... 2 piece, crosses I do bottom to top. Any suggestions welcomed!

[@kedarpandhare8522]

I recently purchased this racket and strung it with BG-80 at 26lbs and BOY it feels like a beast!!! Smashes and drops feel very crisp, but I had to exert more power for clear shots (which is fine IMO). Absolutely recommend it for intermediate players. Great videos @CKYew as always!!! Keep up the good work

[@epicnagger2216]

Appreciate the quick reviews from others who have tested it. Wish I could test new racquets locally

[@jayden77734]

I hope to see more Victor, Lining racquet review, good to see you recovering well and back to review racquets!

[@nigeldollentas]

Glad to see you back on court! Great review as always :)

[@RH-hz9ly]

Good to see you on court again! These reviews from your friends really help to predict what the racket feels like 👍 Anyway I've tried the exbolt, both ver. Like your review i think the 65 is more forgiving, if you miss the sweet spot with the 63 you'll noticed how much power it lose

[@CKYew]

Absolutely! Glad to see you enjoy the Exbolts👌

[@Azril1981]

I had strung this racket with a Yonex Exbolt 63 string, however, stringing at my usual tension of 26lbs, I couldn't get a good repulsion from it. I had to restrung it to 22lbs to get the same repulsion power. The sound was really awesome though.

[@adriankpk]

Thank you so much for the review. I have watched your review at 3-4 times before deciding to get one. It is a racket that fit my playing style and I love the whippy feeling. Smashes are powerful that are easy to execute. The head heavy allows me to that. I figure out why the front court isnt so sharp that because of the swing speed as well as sweet spot. So you will be quite accurate. All in all thank you and an excellent racket.

[@CKYew]

Nice! Glad you found your racket 👌

[@Kashimo333]

Qué tal es el juego de red con esta raqueta?

[@fastfab56]

Would be helpful to put up what racket/string/tension your buddies are using as compared to what they tried on the Nextage? Would be easier to see the contrast

Love to see you back on the court and back with the racket reviews❤️. I also really enjoyed the updated badminton equipment of the professionals❤️. If i could suggest what to review next, i would really love to see reviews of the yonex lite series rackets such as astrox lite 27i or 21i, and nanoflare lite 33i or 29i ❤️. Hope you'd stay healthy and on the grind. Keep up the great and exciting works.

9:26 that's a well taken shot and not a fault. Contact point was on your side of the court, and only time your racket went over was during the follow through, which is legal.

@@steffenfpv5579 nice Racket for a Racket not produced in Japan :D good solid attack feeling. Exbolt 65 and the Green Aerobite String look pretty good to the nice black and green design. It really feels like the best of the Astrox Series combined in this nice racket. really love it.

Hi Ck! Great review as always! I know you've already made review video of the TKF-E, but how would you say these two rackets compare? Cheers.

They’re different price categories so it’s not a fair comparison. The TKF is certainly smoother and faster but ultimately, more expensive.

OMG I'm so surprised when I see you're back making review videos! Welcome back and hope you stay healthy. Interesting review format with you asking your friends about their opinions. One thing that could help maybe to add details about which rackets they are using, so we can know how the reviewed racket stacks up against other racket. Nevertheless, great video as always!

[@AnkitSingh-yq7kc]

That is a really good suggestion.! I agree if they would tell what racket they are using normally it would paint a more clear picture of what to expect from the Racket being reviewed.

Hello, keep delivering great content for the badminton community! Just a quick question Would you suggest astrox 88s game or 88s play? Since you preferred game over tour

Only just found your channel. I’ve been considering a new racket and came across the Nextstage. Years ago my favourite racket was the Yonex Voltric 70 which unfortunately they don’t make anymore. I like a head heavy racket, I’m not the most technically gifted player so I tend to enjoy a more physical (smashing) game 😆 Could this be the racket for me? Great review btw, thank you ☺️ I think you’ve probably explained enough to make me want one but any feedback from you or anyone else here would be appreciated. Thank you

Hey CK, Very informative video. I am waiting for this racket to come in India. Btw have you used any rackets from APAC. What is your opinion on APACS as a Brand as they have quite a few rackets with more than usual tension (that they called mega tension of 35 or 38)?

[@CKYew]

I've not tried Apacs for a very long time but they do make affordable rackets!

[@BenjaminSorrellSax]

I’ve loved your videos of all the tiered racket lines. How do you compare this to the mid tier (either Taiwan made versions) of the other Astrox series? I’ve been playing a NanoFlare 700 I picked out as my first racket and I’ve been enjoying it overall, I think I just prefer head heavy rackets. You say this is similar, but like a head heavy version, but would it be better to just go to 88D Game/Tour to try? It seems to slot in the middle price wise, but similarly to the 700/88D Play in terms of shaft flexibility. Thank you for any insight.

[@muhdsazlly4510]

Exbolt 65 is more suited for me. Because usually I use the Bg66 ultimax or Bg66 force. It feel weird using the Exbolt 63. Anyway, I already change to Aerobite. My god, that string feels so good to use. Now I know why Lin Dan and Kento Momota using that string. And also u are using it. 😁

[@маркмендес]

Пожалуй самая не до оцененная ракетка среди ракеток продвинутого уровня, уж очень редко встречается на площадках)) Приобрел её с полгода назад, до этого играл 88S tour и поначалу вообще не понял для чего NextAge?)))) Сейчас это моя основная ракетка)))чуть помедленнее 88S, НО заметно мощней и стабильней. Контроль волана на самом высоком уровне, привык к скорости ракетке и игра на сетке такая же быстрая как и с 88S. Струна 66Ultimax, пока самая моя любимая натянута на всех моих ракетках)))...Повторюсь - переход с 88S дается не сразу. Думаю , что 88D по ощущениям ближе к NextAge... В ближайшее время закажу 88D tour 3 поколения и скорей всего перейду полностью на D серию...Но NextAge - в своем сегменте как АК-47)) надежней оружия нет)))
