The Victor Auraspeed Fantome is a groundbreaking achievement in badminton engineering, featuring Victor's thinnest-ever 5.0mm frame. Designed for advanced and professional players who demand blistering speed without sacrificing stability, this racket utilizes aerospace-grade materials to deliver lightning-fast drives, rapid defensive clears, and highly precise attacking angles.
The Auraspeed Fantome represents a paradigm shift in Victor's speed racket category. The core innovation lies in its ultra-thin 5.0mm frame. Historically, reducing frame thickness to this extreme compromised structural strength and resulted in a hollow hitting feel. Victor solved this engineering challenge by integrating Nano Aerogel—the world's lightest solid material—and PBO High Performance Fiber into the carbon matrix. This allows the Fantome to cut through the air with zero drag while delivering the dense, solid impact that advanced players require.
While officially categorized with a Head Light balance for maximum speed, the integration of these high-density materials gives the racket head a surprising solidity. This means it doesn't just excel in rapid flat exchanges and defensive blocks; it also packs a highly effective punch when executing full-power smashes from the rear court.
The transition to the synthetic Free Core handle further enhances the Fantome's performance profile. By moving away from traditional wood, the engineered handle absorbs excess vibration and allows the stiff 6.8mm shaft to flex more freely. This racket is not built for beginners; it is a high-performance, tournament-ready weapon strictly tailored for fast, aggressive, and highly technical badminton players.
The defining feature of the Fantome. By narrowing the frame profile to a razor-thin 5.0mm at its thinnest point, aerodynamic drag is virtually eliminated. Each swing feels like wielding a sharp blade, enabling players to react faster at the net and execute rapid drive returns under extreme pressure.
A revolutionary, lightweight material originally developed for aerospace applications. Infused into the racket frame, Nano Aerogel increases the carbon fiber density without adding overall bulk. This effectively elevates both the frame's tensile strength and the density of the hitting feel, preventing the "hollow" sensation often associated with ultra-light frames.
An aeronautical-grade fiber renowned for its extreme tensile strength and thermal stability. In the Fantome, PBO is woven into both the frame and the shaft to significantly elevate force transmission performance. This maximizes torsional stability, meaning the racket face stays square on impact for pin-point shot accuracy.
An evolution of Victor's classic aerodynamic Sword shape. The Dynamic-Sword adjusts the frame's cross-section based on specific aerodynamic principles. The 12 and 6 o'clock positions feature an inward-cutting structure, while the 3 and 9 o'clock regions push outward. This optimized blade-like structure directs airflow efficiently, making swings smoother and noticeably faster.
Designed using computer simulation and precise injection molding, the synthetic Free Core handle replaces traditional wood. This hollow handle design allows the shaft to move and flex more freely upon impact, improving overall swing fluidity while providing exceptional vibration dampening.
Developed by Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation in Japan, Pyrofil is a high-performance carbon fiber characterized by its ultra-lightweight and high-intensity bonds. It provides the racket frame and shaft with excellent shock absorption capabilities, reducing arm fatigue during prolonged, intense tournament matches.
Inspired by military helicopter rotor technology, this system involves a complex multi-layered structure of carbon fiber and composites. It minimizes material size while reinforcing the handling feel and performance to a critical, professional standard.

The Victor Auraspeed Fantome is engineered strictly for advanced and professional badminton players. The combination of a stiff shaft and a highly responsive, ultra-thin frame requires excellent wrist technique and timing to fully unlock.
This racket is not recommended for beginners or intermediate players. Developing players will likely find the stiff shaft unforgiving, making it difficult to generate sufficient clear depth and smash power without an already advanced swing speed.
The standout feature of the Auraspeed Fantome is its 5.0mm ultra-slim frame. By utilizing aerospace materials like Nano Aerogel and PBO High Performance Fiber, Victor managed to create one of the thinnest frames on the market without compromising structural integrity or hitting power, resulting in unmatched swing speeds.
No. Victor specifically engineered the Fantome with Nano Aerogel and PBO High Performance Fiber to significantly reinforce the frame. These advanced composites maintain a high density and strong structural integrity, allowing the racket to withstand heavy impacts and string tensions up to 30 lbs (in the 3U model).
The Auraspeed Fantome is officially categorized as a Head Light racket, designed to maximize maneuverability and speed. However, because the Nano Aerogel material creates a very dense carbon structure in the frame, many advanced players report that it delivers a surprisingly solid and powerful impact feel, preventing the "hollow" sensation common in extreme light-head rackets.
The Free Core handle is Victor's proprietary synthetic handle that replaces traditional wood. Created through injection molding, this hollow design provides better shock absorption and allows the racket's stiff shaft to flex more naturally upon impact, creating a smoother swinging experience and reducing hand fatigue.
If you order the Grip, then it will be shipped separately in a corrugated box. The grip will not be applied over the racket to avoid the removal of Barcode/MRP and other useful information. This also helps in understanding that the product is new and unused. Grip color will be assorted/Random, no specific color will be provided.
If you select this option of Custom Stringing, then Racket will be Stringed with the selected string @ maximum 25lbs (if racket supports) otherwise whichever maximum tension racket supports. We don't provide the facility of stringing more than 25 lbs to avoid any transit shock damage.
If you are looking for higher tension then we suggest you to strung at your end.
There is NO Warranty/Replacement of the strings which break during the play either that's your first shot or 10th game.
** Custom Stringing Rackets required 2 days extra time for shipping and such orders can't be cancelled once placed.
