The Astrox 100zz had been my primary racket for years. However, when I first tried the Nanoflare 1000z, I instantly knew it would become my new go-to racket.

[@MoreThanASwing]

SAME!

Which one is best bro

dang, I love your testing method and units! definitely subscribing for more badminton data, thanks!

[@devy1440]

I still dont know whether i want to get the NF1000Z or the Astrox 100ZZ. I saw alot of reviews of the NF breaking mid game…

[@yashj1072]

I have slight shoulder pain and get fatigued in the right arm. Will this be suitable or should I get 100zz. I'm refraining from 100zz as it is head heavy while this one is head light. Excellent review btw.

[@xman3514]

i bought nanoflare 1000z few days ago.bro,,go for it.its light and fast.but you wont believe how powerful it is compare to head heavy.

[@mingxthing3922]

Would like to check if you had a chance to use both the 3U and 4U versions? Which would you recommend? and which U did you used for the 1 month of playing with?

[@MoreThanASwing]

I've been using the 4U version. this is so that the comparison is kept fair. however, i am considering to get the 3U version for myself. hehe.

[@markdextergalang]

nice review, may we know the string tension and type that you use for 1 month for the 3 rackets compared?

[@MoreThanASwing]

for all my rackets, I use Yonex Nanogy 98. 25lbs.

[@leechongyew8807]

If you are using 29 lbs and you're an average player (like myself): Astrox100zz: Solid solid solid hitting with negligible vibrations. Like driving a VW Golf GTI. Head heavy construct gives you far superior control on slice shots, drops, and smashes. But I wasn't able to generate as much smashing power compared to Nanoflare 1000Z. Poor technique on my part? Nanoflare 1000z: No longer solid hitting. Vibrations can be felt like the ArcSaber 11 pro. Small head design condenses all the power, unleashing powerful smashes (if you hit the tiny sweet spot which is hard). Much harder to control net shots and slices. Much harder to execute back hand smashes. BTW, I can do back hand from end to end but I can't do backhand smash with it.

[@leechongyew8807]

Also, for the 1000Z, the shaft is so stiff, prolly the stiffest yonex shaft, my hand is starting to hurt....

[@Kevin.yuwono]

Super nice review!! ❤ , can you do comparison with astrox 77 pro and arcsaber 11 pro? Which one is the best for all around playing character

New 800??? 😮😮 How does 1000z compare to normal Nanoflare 800 please?

[@dennywidyanto5064]

At defense clear area .... Which is better for intermediate badminton player..... Nanoflare 1000z or astrox 100zz ?

[@mybackandbodyhurts]

Are you playing with a 3u or 4u racket? I recently picked up a 4u 1000z and it reminds of my old NS9900 and NR800. Good review!

[@MoreThanASwing]

I'm using 4U. oh..... the NRs are really light too.

[@Justlookingaround19]

One is head light one is head heavy.. go for the one you are most comfortable with

[@djhmax09]

Leagues above the next best racket sounds like a stretch. It's not like there are any breakthrough technological advancements in racket design recently.

What is the frame size difference between Astrox 100zz and nanoflare 1000z?

[@williamfelisilda6067]

where to buy authentic nanoflare 100z

[@rossivasanth1258]

Please review Arcsaber 11 pro. I’m stuck between choosing that and the 1000z in 4u. Pls helpppp

[@SergioYao-pr8jl]

I have tried both at 4U . I would say Arc11 pro is for technical players, 1000Z is for speed demons. I kept the Arc11 pro .

[@rossivasanth1258]

@@SergioYao-pr8jl thank you 🙏🏽 appreciate it

[@MoreThanASwing]

they are both VERY VERY different rackets. I'm definitely biased. i think you should give 1000Z a try before you reject it.

[@Doc_Mitch]

I'm a beginner and I train 4x a week. I've never had a Nanoflare so I won't know the feeling and handling (I played with Arc 11 pro and 7 pro and now Astrox 70) But I'd really like this 1000z to be in my arsenal however, I feel it's not suitable for female players as we have less arm strength.

[@bowseplayz1111]

might actually be the complete opposite - it's head light by design so it'll be easier to use with less strength

[@Doc_Mitch]

@@bowseplayz1111 I’ll never know until I’ve tried, right? So, I ordered during the holidays and it will come in a few days time.

[@definitelynotnoreen]

Is it durable?seen so many comments from other videos that it breaks. Maybe cuz of the headlight characteristic

[@MoreThanASwing]

It would not be unusual because of its headlight characteristics. Having said that, professionals are using it. They tie at high tension and hit with great power. The racket is designed to withstand pressure as long it is from the correct "direction". No racket is designed to take a hit on the floor or from another racket.

[@kaverienvelopemachinesindi2752]

It compact head is good ?

[@MoreThanASwing]

Its a double edged. The sweet spot is smaller, so it makes it more difficult to play with. But the response, power and control seems better.

[@Kamikazejets]

Compact head is not for a beginner. You have to be very consistent hitting to the sweetspot to use compact frame

[@justin_t]

May i ask if you use a 3u or 4u racket?

[@MoreThanASwing]

All my rackets are 4U. :)

So aa the video whats the best..is it NF 1000

[@MoreThanASwing]

NF1000 ftw!

[@schreiber6220]

Thanks for the impressive review! Do you know which version of the 1000z beat the world record in terms of weight and grip size?

[@MoreThanASwing]

That's an interesting question. I couldnt find the answer when i searched for it. but let me know if you do find out. :)

[@schreiber6220]

I also looked and could not find that information. If I come across it I will make sure to post it here. Thanks again.

[@schreiber6220]

I talked to my local pro shop guy and asked him if he knew which weight of Nanoflare 1000z was used during the world record smash and he said it was done using the heavier 3U version. I wasn’t surprised to hear this as the extra weight is known to help with extra power. He wasn’t sure about the grip size but that’s subjective. I picked up 2 in 3UG4. I had heard the shaft was longer and head smaller than conventional rackets and to my surprise it was relatively the same shaft length and head size as my Voltric Z Force 2 rackets. So far they play very well and a little whippier than the Z force as they should be.

[@GTChow]

@@schreiber6220 I was also using ZF2 (3U) as my main for a few years and I'm a singles player. I liked that it is head heavy and super stiff, but recently I felt like trying something faster and got the 1000Z and now it is my main racket. I bought two 4U ones and oh my is it a clear upgrade from the ZF2 by a mile! It is a lot faster and I can feel the repulsion of the shuttle literally shooting off the racket head, I am certainly smashing harder and my backhand clear -- even from a disadvantageous position -- is going to the opponent's baseline. The only thing is that I need to be accurate because mishits with this racket is really unforgiving, but I am getting used to it over time. I noticed the same thing as you too, I was expecting a longer shaft but it is identical to the ZF2, even the racket head size is the same (I knew ZF2 had a smaller racket head, but didn't expect the 1000Z to also have a compact head and the same size too!). In any case, really happy with the 1000Z. How is your 3U version? Have you tried the 4U one, and if you did how does it compare?

[@abiyyugm9243]

Hello coach i want to ask , it is NF 1000z feels vibrate while contact to shuttle? I once try my friend astrox 100zz and its feel much vibrate , does it feel the same?

[@MoreThanASwing]

the NF 1000z and the Astrox 100ZZ feels VERY different. I would say the vibration on the Astrox feels much much stronger. The vibration on the NF1000Z is much quicker/shorter.

[@andreaskihlgren]

3u or 4u?

[@MoreThanASwing]

all my rackets are 4u for comparison sake.

[@calvenyeoh5997]

Everyone using 100zz switched to 1000z 😂 . Including myself best racket ever released

[@Raven-qg5vl]

Is it really better I’m planning to buy.

[@calvenyeoh5997]

@@Raven-qg5vl yes it is easier to maneuver . It is marketed as extra stiff like the 100zz but it doesn’t feel as stiff as 100zz . High repulsion , light head weight might need some time to adjust to the racket . But once you master it , you will like it

Hockey puck speed still faster than badminton shuttle though.
