About grip size
Comparing G5 and G6? G6 is slimmer; G5 has a fuller feel.
In an option such as 4U G6, 4U is the weight class and G6 is the grip size. For YONEX badminton racquets, a higher G number means a slimmer handle.
| YONEX size | Handle feel |
|---|---|
| G5 | Fuller than G6 |
| G6 | Slimmer than G5 |
Choosing your fit
- Smaller hands or prefer a thinner handle? Start by trying G6.
- Prefer more to hold? Try G5 for a fuller feel than G6.
- Adding an overgrip makes either size thicker. Check the fit with the wrapping you intend to use.
Choose from the sizes listed for this model; not every weight is offered with both grips. This G5/G6 comparison follows YONEX sizing; other brands can differ.

VICTOR THRUSTER RYUGA III – Razor-Sharp Power, Upgraded
The VICTOR 2026 THRUSTER RYUGA III CQ is the latest evolution of the RYUGA attacking series, engineered for players seeking powerful offensive performance without sacrificing stability and control.
Featuring the upgraded FREE CORE 2.0 handle, a DYNAMIC BOX frame with spiral structure, and a WES 3.0 Metallic Carbon Fiber shaft, the RYUGA III delivers smoother power transfer and faster shuttle release.
Combining stable handling with explosive attacking performance, the RYUGA III is built to generate razor-sharp, devastating smashes while retaining the versatility required for continuous attack, fast follow-up shots and controlled placement.
FREE CORE 2.0
The upgraded FREE CORE 2.0 handle enhances energy transmission between the shaft and handle, creating a smoother and more connected power transfer through the racket.
The synthetic handle structure also helps improve shock absorption, stability and handling precision, giving the RYUGA III a cleaner and more direct response during powerful strokes.
DYNAMIC BOX
The DYNAMIC BOX frame incorporates an optimised box-frame structure with spiral construction to improve frame stability and energy transmission.
The reinforced structure helps the racket remain stable through high-impact shots while supporting faster and more direct shuttle release during attacking play.
WES 3.0 – Whipping Enhance System
The upgraded WES 3.0 works together with Metallic Carbon Fiber in the shaft to enhance whipping performance and improve force transmission.
This allows the shaft to accelerate more efficiently through the hitting zone, helping generate sharper downward angles, faster shuttle release and more penetrating attacking shots.
Metallic Carbon Fiber
Metallic Carbon Fiber combines carbon fibre with metallic material to enhance elasticity, stability and force transmission.
Integrated into both the frame and shaft of the RYUGA III, it contributes to a more responsive hitting feel while supporting powerful and precise shot production.
46T PYROFIL by Mitsubishi
High-performance 46T PYROFIL carbon fibre provides an advanced combination of high strength and low weight.
Its material properties contribute to excellent shock absorption, improved stability and enhanced control during high-intensity play.
NANO AEROGEL
NANO AEROGEL, one of the world's lightest solid materials, is infused into the frame.
By optimising the weight balance of the frame and allowing a greater proportion of carbon fibre to be used, it helps improve both frame strength and hitting feel.
Nano Fortify TR+
Nano Fortify TR+ reinforces the carbon structure of the racket frame, combining strength and resilience to improve stability and responsiveness during impact.
HARD CORED TECHNOLOGY
VICTOR's HARD CORED TECHNOLOGY uses a multi-layer carbon construction concept to reinforce the racket frame and improve structural stability.
The result is a solid, controlled hitting response designed to remain dependable during powerful attacking exchanges.
6.5mm Shaft
The slim 6.5mm shaft helps reduce air resistance while maintaining the rigidity and responsiveness required for fast racket acceleration and attacking play.
