Tension also similar?

When I was younger I used my aunt/uncle wood badminton racket. The weight to it was really nice. But too bad it broke
Back then, the tension was limited more by the wood frame than anything....

Eh? Weight nice?? To murder ppl ah? Wooden rackets are like more than twice the weight of current rackets.... You like the weight, can always buy training rackets... I have one that is 150g, friend got one that is 180g.... I use for training and he use for warm ups... :s13:

Aluminum rackets are probably quite low end rackets... These days all carbon composites with some kinda weave reinforcement... Tension go up to 35lbs.... Although no strength to actually play at that tension... :s22:
