For shoe just buy yonex 65z3 RM400+ very good enough lor.

For newbie better buy cheaper racket lar. Apacs, felet, chepaer version yonex or victor. Bang racket with partner common among beginner player. U buy expensive racket then accidently bang with partner racket u crybaby. Unless u play single.

But since u afford racket for budget RM1000, just buy Thruster Ryuga 2, u will automatic play like LZJ. Lulz!

Dont buy tennis shoe for badminton. Not to say kenot use, but better buy proper indoor shoe for badminton.
Since u got good bajet and prefer asics, can check out gel blast ff 3, court control ff 3, blade ff, gel tactic 12 or netburner ballistic ff mt 3(high cut).

just curious, whats the different between 100-200+ racket vs those 500-1k racket?

Expensive racket better material and good technology in it.

Well if u already a pro player, using cheapo RM80 racket also still can win.

U give Datuk LCW use RM30 Mr.DIY racket vs ktard with RM1000 racket, sure kelong also kena hantam Datuk LCW.

Exactly, there's a lot to learn about a sport other than hitting back and forth. gonna know the basics, not just hit for the sake of hitting the bird / ball
Buy good equipment doesn't equal to good player. Anybody with skills / training can easily tapau a noob with cheap equipment.
Asics gel rocket 10 also good enough la. Rm 250. Yeah newbie use cheap racket better. If you play doubles, always clash rackets with your partner. Some high end rackets can break quite easily though. Start low, maybe rm 100+ to 200+ can settle la. Bruh I'm using 2nd hand li ning bought from the badminton shop where I usually play at. RM 80. For a year plus dy still going strong even winning players with RM 500++ rackets... expensive rackets don't mean shit when you can't play.
The technology used to produce the racket, the material and all..
Manufacturers claimed it would produce higher smash speeds, better control etc etc.. but to us regular club / social players.. it wouldn't make a difference la.

For beginner yes asics gel rocket 10 or 11 good as starter. But since TS afford and list expensive shoe and high bajet, so just rekemen him high end lulz!
But ya different people different choice, some newbie who afford they straight away get high end shoe and racket. For some they get cheaper shoe and racket. Nextime after gain good skill and play better then can buy better racket and shoe.

Most important in badminton is correct technique. If u can win by just play setting the shuttle for opponent and less smash, cheapo racket can already. If u a good powerful smasher, good racket give better power.
If me i depend on opponent. If opponent i can makan without power play, i use my old RM80 carbonex racket also can. But if meet powerful player and need do lot of powerful smash then i use good racket.
But now i dont really go for high end racket liao. I only use bajet racket yonex Astrox 9. Bought during promotion few years back RM150. My badminton group mostly use high end also i can win them most of time.
Many people thought using expensive racket they immediately can play as good as Lindan. Lulz!

since we're talking about badminton rackets..
anybody got any nice recommendations for slightly head heavy rackets?
budget RM 250 max not as rich as TS here. lol
*
Astrox 9 gooding but sadly no more production. Lulz!
If lucky u can find shop tat still keep astrox 9 stock, grab it.
If in yonex, slightly head heavy to fully head heavy look around under astrox series.
Astrox 77 play or game.

yeah but not all newbies can use the high end racket.. as in fully utilize it. Later might even injure himself / herself if get the wrong equipment.
like tennis shoes for badminton..

Unless they get head light to even balance spec then ok.
If they straight away using full head heavy racket then can get injured.

that's why when i start coaching newbies
i will always tell them that the first two weeks of training will be very very very boring.

first and second week, i will train them without the squash ball.
training with just the racket.
learn how to hold and grip the racket.
learn about body positioning when hitting a forehand and backhand
learn how position the racket before swinging a forehand / backhand
etc etc
*
Tats right. Not as easy as they thought. Even swing also have right technique. Anyone can hit shuttle just that not in right technique and stance.
Basic badminton stance also need to learn 1st before start hitting shuttle.

nowadays i play mostly on placing and setting to beat opponent.
to save me from having some muscle sore the next day.

just placing and setting make them move from corner to corner, front to back,  and wear out their stamina.  LOL.

Same as me. Less playing smash now a day. Placing and setting good enough to win. Make them move around the court. tongue.gif
