Victor VBS 70 Power Badminton String

The Victor VBS-70 Power (VBS-70P) is a durability badminton string built for players who want long string life and a soft, powerful feel in the same set. It uses a 0.70mm multifilament nylon construction with a high-tenacity weave, which gives it strong resistance to breakage while keeping a soft touch on the shuttle. This is genuine Victor stock, made in Japan, imported to India by Victor Rackets Pvt Ltd.

Who this string is for

The VBS-70 Power suits power players who break strings often and want a set that lasts without feeling stiff. The thicker 0.70mm gauge takes the punishment of hard smashing and frequent training, and the soft feel gives a comfortable, forceful response on contact. It is a sensible choice for school teams, academy players, and anyone who restrings often and wants to spend less doing it.

Who should pick a different string

If you want maximum repulsion and a lively, fast string bed, a thinner gauge in the 0.62 to 0.66mm range gives more spring than this 0.70mm string. Beginners and lighter hitters may also find a thick durability string needs more of their own power to feel responsive, so a thinner string is friendlier while you build strength. And if you prefer a firmer, medium feel over a soft one, the standard Victor VBS-70 is the same durability with a medium feel rather than this soft one.

VBS-70 Power or the standard VBS-70?

Both are 0.70mm durability strings from the same family. The VBS-70 Power has a soft feel tuned for powerful, explosive hitting. The standard VBS-70 has a medium feel and a slightly crisper response. Pick the Power for a softer, power-focused feel, and the standard VBS-70 if you prefer a firmer touch.

Specifications

What the 0.70mm gauge means

String thickness is a trade-off. A thicker 0.70mm string like this one lasts longer and resists breakage better, which is why it sits in Victor's durability range. The cost is a little less repulsion than a thin string, so it rewards players who bring their own power. The Power version offsets the thickness with a soft feel, so you get the long life of a thick string without the dead, stiff sensation thick strings can have.

String tension guidance

For this string, a tension around 24 to 27 lbs gives more repulsion and easier power, while 27 to 29 lbs sharpens control for cleaner hitters. Higher tension gives more control and less power, lower tension does the reverse. If you are not sure, mid-range is a safe start, and you can adjust at your next restring.
