We need more pros like you making these kind of videos. I just picked up badminton again since high school. Been watching all your videos keep up the great work!
@streetninja23 i like its feelings. I paired it with the Aerobite and it definitely excels in net play & control. Sometimes when I'm feeling tired after heavy smashes with the 1000Z I'll switch to the Nextage for easier maneuvering.
I think the price will really hinder this racket. For $150 it'll be competing with the NF1000 tour and NF800 tour, and apart from the more flexible shaft, I see no reason to buy this over those two.
I honestly tried a few pro version rackets and I just can’t go back, I’m so used to the super stiff shaft that it makes me feel like am cheating using anything with flex. That being said, for example, I can’t use the Arcsaber 7 Pro, but the 11 Pro is amazing. All the Astrox series from the 88D pro to the 100ZZ are awesome, my most recently used is the Nanoflare 1000Z which is in a class of its own, still don’t get how it’s so powerful compared to something like a 100ZZ, however the smashes are not as steep, since it’s head light compared to the Astrox being head heavy.
Yes pricing is always an issue, in Europe ist costs 109 Euro same price as nf 800 game, it is way cheaper than any tour model, so in Europe I think many will buy the nextage
Do you think a [headlight] racket can be too fast? I'm a doubles front court specialist, and few years ago I purchased a Victor Jet Speed 12. I found it difficult to intercept because I was always swinging early. After 8-ish sessions, I gave the racquet to my wife and switched back to my previous racquet (a lightweight, head heavy racquet). Do you think I should have given the racquet more time?
It definitely takes an adjustment period to get used to any racket. I find that my timing is off when I used headlight rackets also because I just quite frankly am not used to them. However if headlight is what you like, then I would say maybe give it some more time to see if you can adjust the timing. Once the timing is adjustment and if you like the feeling, then you are good. For me, even after I adjust to the timing, I just don't like the feeling of a headlight racket. So that is why I personally don't play them. Hope that helps!
how was Satwiksairaj Rankireddy able to hit 565km/h smash with a head light racket Nanoflare 1000z? Normally we hear that head heavy racket make faster smash?
The Nanoflare 1000z definitely is a Nanoflare in that it isn't specifically head heavy but that racket is designed specifically to have an extremely fast swing but also is extra stiff so if you have the power and whip in your swing, you can definitely generate some huge smashes like Rankireddy
Wider Profile Frame width is referring to the thickness of the frame. So the racket head size actually is not bigger. It just that the thicker frame provides for a smoother swing
Definitely less crisp and less repulsion. Main reason is the 1000z is a higher end racket. So the metals are a little better but also because the 1000z has a stiffer shaft so it doesn't feel as soft@@Kamikazejets
I am little confused now but I definitely think that you can remove my confusion, my question is, which one is good between nanoflare game vs nanoflare nextage? I would like to play both offensive and defensive games. I am an intermediate player looking forward to improve my games. Thanks in advance 🙏🏸
Let’s goooooo!!! 🔥🔥🔥

Appreciate the support bro!
Thank you for the video! Because of it, I bought it today, and wow-I didn’t realize we play at the same court. Lucky me!
Great review Howard! I didn't know there was this much variation between rackets.
Ordered mine yesterday. Can't wait to get my hands on it
So how is it ?

@@jjgates6351 do the smashes feel good?
Excellent content HOWARD
Would love your comparison thoughts on the Nanoflare Nextage and the Nanoflare 700.
I think the price will really hinder this racket. For $150 it'll be competing with the NF1000 tour and NF800 tour, and apart from the more flexible shaft, I see no reason to buy this over those two.
However, some people don’t prefer the rexis shaft. It is kind of in between game and tour version on specs, but yes, quite expensive.

Nanoflare 800 pro review pls!

wow, thats going to be a cool looking combo! hope you enjoy!
How's your experience?
Can you review astrox nextage as well?
Yonex nanoflare 1000 game vs nanoflare nextstage which one is better for intermediate to advanced player
What did you decide?
Yah i am also considerinf both of these
Can you do the astrox next stage?
how would you compare this to the nanoflare 800 tour?
Just bought it
how was Satwiksairaj Rankireddy able to hit 565km/h smash with a head light racket Nanoflare 1000z?

Do you recommend apacs or felet which one is better?
You have to need to show rhe sound of the racket during review ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤from Bangladesh
do u think this racket can "broke" itself like the nnf 700?
Really?
Can you do a comparison for astrox 88d pro and nanoflare 1000z
Hi, do a review about astrox 88d pro..
So basically it’s similar to a NF700?
What is the recommend knots for the nanoflare nextage? (2 knots or 4 knots)
Always recommend 2 piece stringing so 4 knots
I’m just begin to play serious so I decide to buy it and i start string tension with 28lbs. I’m so dead 😂
Does wider frame width of racket means larger sweetspot?
Wider Profile Frame width is referring to the thickness of the frame. So the racket head size actually is not bigger. It just that the thicker frame provides for a smoother swing
can i still use it for singles in tournaments, i see everybody talking about how the nnf nextage is mainly for doubles
You can definitely still use it if you like the feeling. All up to your own personal preference!
@@howeezy oooh okay thanks
@@kwz8139
So what was your experience?
How is this compare to nf1000z?
Nanoflare 1000z has a much stiffer shaft. Also even though both are Nanoflare headlight series. The Nextage for sure is way more headlight
@@howeezyhow bout the repulsion? I own nanoflare 1000z and it's very crisp.
Definitely less crisp and less repulsion. Main reason is the 1000z is a higher end racket. So the metals are a little better but also because the 1000z has a stiffer shaft so it doesn't feel as soft@@Kamikazejets
@@howeezy Thanks. Btw, love your videos. Keep up the good work!
