Victor Thruster TK-280 5U Badminton Frame Strung

The Victor Thruster K 280 R is a well-balanced, power-oriented racket designed for intermediate to aggressive players who want to deliver solid smashes without sacrificing stability and control.

Key Features & Technologies

• Power Box Frame — The racket’s box-shaped frame design increases torsional stability and reduces torque, allowing it to handle high string tensions with confidence. 

• Fiber Reinforced System (FRS) — Built with layered carbon fiber, this system boosts elasticity while maintaining reliable controllability, especially during high-tension string play. 

• 7.0 Shaft — The shaft is composed of graphite + resin with a 7.0 specification, giving it a relatively stiff flex which helps transfer energy efficiently for powerful strokes.

Performance Insights

• Attack Power: With its head-heavy balance and stiff shaft, this racket is excellent for generating strong smashes and driving shots.

• Control & Stability: Thanks to the Power Box frame and FRS reinforcement, the racket remains stable even under high tension, reducing unwanted torque.

• Durability: The graphite-resin construction provides a good balance between weight, strength, and resilience.

• Stringing Potential: The ability to handle fairly high string tension gives advanced players room to tune the string bed for personal play style.

Ideal For

• Intermediate to advanced players who rely on strong offensive play — particularly smashers.

• Players who want a durable racket that can be strung at higher tensions.

• Anyone wanting a reliable, power-focused racket without jumping into top-tier (and more expensive) professional-level models.
