The ARCSABER 11 TOUR shares the stiff shaft and POCKETING BOOSTER frame of the ARCSABER 11 line, giving a controlled, solid feel on drives and placement shots. It suits intermediate to advanced players who play a precise, tactical game and want a step below the PRO in price.
Key features
-
POCKETING BOOSTER – frame shaping that holds the shuttle on the strings a fraction longer, so you can steer placement more precisely.
-
SUPER HMG shaft – high-modulus graphite for a firm, direct response.
-
T-ANCHOR joint – anchors the shaft firmly into the frame for extra stability at the throat.
-
Built-in T-Joint – the shaft is set inside the throat of the frame, which keeps the head steady and the shot direction consistent.
-
10 mm longer than standard – a little extra reach and leverage on overhead shots.

Stringing
This racket is sold unstrung (frame only). You can add professional stringing on this page: choose your string and tension, and we string it at our Point Cook shop. See our racket stringing service.
Questions & answers
Is this racket better for attack, control or all-round play?
Control. It is designed for accurate placement and stable, flat exchanges.
What weight and grip is it?
We offer it in 4U G6. 4U means an unstrung frame weight of 80–84 g. G6 is one of the thinner YONEX grip sizes (thinner than G5).
What string tension do you recommend?
YONEX advises 19–27 lbs for this 4U frame. Please don't string above 27 lbs.
Does it come strung, and can you string it for me?
No, it is sold unstrung (frame only). We can string it for you: on this page choose "Add professional stringing", then pick your string and tension, or choose "Keep original condition" to leave it as supplied. Shop stringing starts from $24 with string included (YONEX BG65 $27, BG65Ti $29, BG80/Exbolt/Nanogy $30, Aerobite $32, Aerobite Boost $34). Regular in-store stringing is ready for pickup after 4 days; a faster service is available for a fee when we have capacity.
How is it different from the ARCSABER 11 PRO and PLAY?
All three use the ARCSABER 11 shape. YONEX lists the PRO and TOUR with a stiff shaft, HM Graphite frame with POCKETING BOOSTER and a T-ANCHOR joint; the PRO adds Ultra PE Fiber in the shaft and is made in Japan. The PLAY is a medium-flex graphite version that is easier to swing for newer players.
