Raised the head speed by reducing the air resistance to the greatest extent possible.
Reduce the air resistance = minimize Karman vortex
When you swing the racket, air flow called “Karman vortex” which affect air registance will follow behind the racket frame.
“Karman vortex” cause unsteady separation of air flow which makes to have energy loss to the shuttlecock after impact.Compared to the conventional rackets, original frame shape of TYPE-N have smaller energy loss because the Karmanvortex is generated away from the frame.
This original frame with minimum Karman vortex transmit your swing power to the shuttlecock without loss.

DEVELOPMENT
HISTORYNew challenge with latest technology
Racket frame shape… It much affects on playability.
Recent popular sqaure frame got popular among general players more than 20 years ago.Since that evolution, the frame of badminton rackets has not been dramatically changed until now.
But the rules of badminton has been changed much for these 20 years.
13 point setting match was abolished.
Change from Service point scoring system to Rally point system.
As the game is shortened, each shot got to be more important to win.
Not only stamina for the game, player needs to control the shot quickly and accurately.
GOSEN is challenging to the next generation of racket in which more speed and accuracy will be required.
All-ROUND INNOVATION PROVIDED WITH STRENGTH AND FLEXIBILITY
At the development stage, we approached from totally different direction about materials and designs.
What is the essencial factor to respond to every player’s style ?
What could be done to improve the racket performance with more strength and speed ?
After many trial productions, the edgy frame proportion is completed.
MATERIAL
MATERIAL
MITSUBISHI CHEMICAL PYROFIL
To design special structured frame, the presicion of carbon prepreg is requred much more than for conventional rackets.
Mitsubishi Chemical Pirofil used for INFERNO racket is the material which has already adopted for the material of aircraft and golf shaft.
Moreover, all hotmelt processing realized high strenth and clear feeling at impact.
Excellent strength
All hotmelt processing hightened the bonding strength of each carbon fiber by covering them with resin. Conventional carbon sheet has less bonding strength because each fiber is not covered with regin.
Clear Hitting impact
Impact shock on typical carbon sheet is scattered around, but impact shock on all hotmelt carbon is spread from the center evenly as the carbon fibers are bonded well.
