Badminton Racquets
Gravitas Series
The Gravitas series builds onto GOSEN’ Ryoga Concept and focuses on maximising the transfer of power when the racquet head is twisted and swung through the air.

Inferno Series
The Inferno series is GOSEN’s breakthrough in racquet innovation. This series was developed with speed and accuracy in mind. The unique frame design was developed through multiple trials and feedback from different players. The frame’s structure increases it’s torque and structural strength, leading to more stable swings and increased durability. As a result, the shuttlecock smash speed has increased as well as sharper angles.

Gungnir Series
The Gungnir series racquets focuses power and durability. This is GOSEN's first 80-grommet frame design, used to increase the sweet spot of the racquet, resulting in increased power and frame control. The racquet frame also uses the company's special Variant Frame design, which separates the design of the frame into 3 unique shapes. This allows the racquet to reduce air resistance, reduce the stress of the frame and also generate more torque and power. Lastly, the refined carbon design, weaves the carbon around the frame in 3 different ways - which increases the durability and tension hold of the racquet. This is arguable of the most powerful racquets offered by GOSEN.

Customedge Series (Versions 2.0 and 1.0)
The Customedge series got its name from the many thousands of hours of research and testing. This series focuses on the importance of the bottom two edges of the racquet design. Technically known as the "4 o"clock and 8"clock" locations, the importance of the varying "custom"edges has been tested extensively to positively influence the aerodynamic nature of the racquet; resulting in enhanced control and power; allowing the feeling of the racquet to be customised.
The v2.0 series incorporates a new manufacturing process using a hotmelting carbon sheet, which increases the durability and tension hold of the racquet. Each racquet’s weight and balance points have been refined, enhancing the control, speed and power of its predecessors.
This series has a few models: the Type K, Type V and Type X – all with an isometric head, allowing a larger sweet spot and enhanced power.
Designed for the player who likes speed, control and power.
This racquet starts at the top with a 9.0mm frame, a 6.5mm at the shaft’s pending point which gradually joins and becomes a 7.5mm stiff shaft.
