  • 1. What type of racket is the Havoc S1?

    It is a head-heavy racket, meaning that the balance point of the racket is close to the head than the handle of the racket. The balance point is 300-305mm from the base of the handle.

    2. What type of player is it for?

    As it is a head heavy racket, it enhances the attacking power of an offensive badminton player. It would be the go to racket for those looking to pack a punch. The 4U (82g) version is suitable for beginners to advanced players, and is for both males and females although. However, we would recommend the 3U (87g) only for those that are physically stronger than average or are intermediate to advanced level players.

    It comes in 2 different weights: 4U which is 82g and 3U which is 87g.

    I was very excited about my new racquet however on first use the strings broke - to which I sent Volant a photo requesting them to restring the racquet - they responded saying that it happened because of a miss-hit and because of which, no restringing from them.

    Hi Yash, Thank you for your review and sorry to hear that your strings broke. Unfortunately we do not have control over broken strings when there has been a mis-hit. Strings can definitely break on their first use if the shot has been mis-hit and it happens to all of us! If you'd like some more information about mis-hits, please see this link: https://volantbadminton.com/blogs/volant-community/badminton-strings-break-from-mishits . We hope that you are able to get your racket re-strung and use it again very soon. If you'd like to reduce the likelihood of mis-hits causing the string to break, we would suggest stringing it at a lower tension and using a thicker gauge string. All the very best and hope that you enjoy playing with the racket!

    Hi Manoj, we're sorry that you haven't had a good expereinece with our Havoc S1. We do suggest that head heavy rackets aren't use for beginners and would recommend a head-light or even-balanced racket instead. Please feel free to use our Racket Quiz to help choose a suitable racket for you. We have also recorded a video on beginners on how to choose a racket too. Please see links below.

    Not the best racket

    New in the sports and decided to get this since it was the first website that came up on Google. Used it for 3 months and it felt alright, took a break in between and came back 3 months later to play the sport, the racket broke just within the first few rally, without hitting anyone, the floor or anyone's racket. I would say that it was disappointing considering the price is in comparison with any mid-tier Yonex rackets.

    Amazing racquet

    It's a great fit for player with low arm strength, I got the 4U version and it is a little on the lighter side, the balance and control is outstanding.
