About the new X-FEEL series
The new X-FEEL rackets are Babolat's new POWER range. Four models that have been specifically designed by skill level to give you power and playability.
X-Feel Origin unstrung weight: 85 g - 3U (85-89 g)
The weight (actually the mass) is measured in grams. Rackets can weigh anywhere from 60 to over 100 grams. They are sorted in weight classes expressed in "U". The lighter the racket, the more manoeuvrable and comfortable it will be, while also hurting your arm less and increasing your swing speed. On the other hand, a heavier racket will be more powerful.
X-Feel Origin flex: Semi-stiff
Flexibility is defined as the shaft's capacity to bend while hitting. Shafts can range from flexible to rigid. A flexible shaft will be more forgiving and comfortable as you easily hit into the backcourt. A stiffer shaft will be more responsive and accurate, but will require a fast swing. A stiff racket is also not very forgiving of hitting errors.
X-Feel Origin balance: Neutral
Balance refers to the racket's weight distribution. It is indicated in millimetres and is measured from the base of the handle to the balance point. A head light racket will be more manoeuvrable and reactive, making it perfect for defensive and doubles players. Head heavy rackets will provide better power, the ideal choice for offensive players. However, they can feel heavy and difficult to swing.
X-Feel Origin composition: HM Graphite
The price of a badminton racket is affected by its composition. Steel and/or aluminium rackets are sturdy, heavy and better suited to recreational use. Graphite/aluminium and full graphite rackets are lightweight and perfect for beginner and intermediate players. Finally, rackets made from High-Modulus Graphite and other materials like tungsten are designed for advanced players.
X-Feel Origin length: 675 mm
The length of an adult's racket is measured in millimetres and ranges from 660 mm to 680 mm. Only the shaft length will vary. A shorter shaft length will be more manoeuvrable and provide a better feel. A longer shaft will offer increased inertia for added power.
X-Feel Origin grip size: Size 2 = G4
Grip size is measured in millimetres. Grip size ranges from 75 mm to over 90 mm and is categorized into size ranges expressed in "G". While a larger handle is easier to hold, many players have difficulty changing their grip. A smaller handle is easier to wield and lets you put more power on the racket by using your fingers.
Original strings
The racket comes pre-strung with black Babolat Ifeel string with a gauge of 0.70 mm.
X-Feel Origin factory tension: 8-9 kg/18-20 lbs
The tension is expressed in kilograms (kg) or pounds (lb). The rackets are strung at about 9 kg (20 lbs) but can decrease as the stringing loses tension over time.
X-Feel Origin maximum recommended tension: 12 kg/27 lbs
Babolat provides a recommended maximum tension to prevent the frame from breaking when stringing, after an impact, or after a string breaks.
X-Feel Origin string pattern: 20*21
The string pattern is expressed in the number of vertical strings x the number of horizontal strings. In badminton, you say mains and crosses on a racket. This configuration increases grip and improves spin.
82 eyelets stringing instructions: A = top, B = bottom
"4 knot stringing instructions. Mains: start from top centre and continue to A13 (skip A8, A10, A12 and B9, B11) and tie off at A9. (same other side) Crosses: start from the centre and string the bottom crosses from B23 to B8 (skip B12 and B10), tie off at B7. String the top crosses from A19 to A8 (skip A13, A11 and A9) and tie off at A6."
SPEED AERO
Grommets built into the racket frame to improve the aerodynamics for more power and manoeuvrability.
X-FEEL TECH
The same shape as the original X-Feel rackets, but with stiffer frames to stop them distorting and to give you more feel.
