ARCSABER 7: Hold For Flight

Introducing the highly acclaimed ARCSABER series, renowned for its superior control, now expanding its lineup with the all-new and reimagined ARCSABER 7. This latest addition takes flight trajectory to new heights. Specifically designed to optimize flex and torque, the ARCSABER 7 enhances precision targeting for intermediate and advanced players. Its unique construction grants players a few extra milliseconds of shuttle contact time, enabling assertive and precise shot-making. The ARCSABER 7 will hit the courts in late August 2022.

Within the Yonex racquet range, the ARCSABER series holds a distinct position as a collection focused on shuttle-hold. When the series was first introduced in 2007, repulsion-based racquets were the norm. However, over the years, extensive research and development have established shuttle-hold as a crucial element, instilling confidence in athletes and their shuttle control.

The new ARCSABER 7 embodies the development concept of "Hold for flight." Through careful analysis of its predecessor, opportunities for improvement were identified, including enhancing frame stability and prolonging shuttle contact time.

Frame stability is heightened by a unique structure exclusive to the ARCSABER series. The top and bottom of the face feature a rigid build to minimize unwanted distortion upon impact. The sides of the frame, in contrast, offer greater flexibility around the sweet spot, contributing to extended shuttle contact time. The shaft of the ARCSABER 7 has also been redesigned to accommodate torque, generating powerful repulsion upon impact.

The incorporation of the POCKETING BOOSTER, a proprietary rubber-like material lining the frame's sides, further enhances elasticity, promoting both shuttle hold and increased launch speed.

The new ARCSABER 7 will be wielded by esteemed players such as Huang Dong Ping (CHN), the Tokyo Olympic Gold Medalist in mixed doubles, as well as Rawinda Prajongjai and Jongkolphan Kititharakul (THA), Thailand's top-ranked women's doubles duo. Scheduled for a global launch on August 19th, 2022, the racquets will be available in three different models: PRO, TOUR, and PLAY. Each model adheres to the same performance concept, with variations in the materials used to cater to different performance needs.

Achieve confident control with the distinctive frame structure of the ARCSABER 7, featuring varying degrees of flex in the top, sides, and bottom. This carefully designed construction enhances shuttle hold while minimizing instability and twisting upon impact.

The shaft of the ARCSABER 7 is meticulously engineered to provide optimal twist, resulting in enhanced control and flight performance.

The ARCSABER 7 features a side frame lined with the exclusive POCKETING BOOSTER*, a rubber-like material that enhances the frame's flexibility and elasticity, significantly improving shuttle hold performance.

*PRO & TOUR Models Only

In comparison to its predecessor, the new ARCSABER 7 boasts an enlarged ISOMETRIC face. This expansion results in a larger and more forgiving sweet spot, providing players with increased accuracy and forgiveness on their shots.
