CONCEPT Exceptional "METALLIC SOUND" and BADMINTON "SUPER DURABILITY".

We focused on Durability and Power for development of badminton string so far, but G-TONE series string is focused on Hitting sound as a main concept. Overwhelming Competiter by Normally, stringing high-tension creates high-hitting sound; however GOSEN focused on synergistic effect between high volume and METALLIC SOUND core fiber and outer wrapping fiber to create METALLIC SOUND.

TECHNOLOGY TENNIS

GOSEN adopts new production method to stick firmly between core fiber and outer wrapping fiber.(Patent applying in Japan)

A high ℃ ℃ 27~23℃ 22~18℃ 17~13℃ quality cork is then fitted to complete the process, producing one of the highest quality and durable shuttlecocks. SLOW MIDDLE ORDINAL NYLON SHUTTLECOCK There are 4 key characteristics that we use to verify the quality of our shuttlecocks: SHORT MIDDLE DISTANCE DISTANCE NET STABILITY : 1 This involves checking the shuttlecock's balance and stability of it's flight, to ensure there is minimum or no deviation in it's trajectory. FEATHER GOSEN NYLON UNDER 15 ACCURACY : 15~35℃ ℃ SHUTTLECOCK SHUTTLECOCK Our shuttlecocks are hit under a fixed temperature, angle and speed. This is to ensure that they 2 all fall within our expected distance and tolerance levels (refer to diagram). DURABILITY : A simulation of a real badminton game is created, so that we can test and assess the level of NET 3 durability of our shuttlecocks. This is based on things such as: the level of breakage in the feathers, the corks and how they affect the slight and accuracy of the shuttlecocks.

FEELING : CORRECT FLIGHT DISTANCE 4 We have a number of testers hitting our shuttlecocks, to ensure that the feel is consistent.
