VICTOR VS-65 – balanced 200 m reel for versatile all-round play
The VICTOR VS-65 is a balanced badminton string for players and stringers who want to combine control, solid repulsion and practical durability. Its 0.65 mm gauge sits between ultra-thin speed strings and thicker durability-oriented options.
The nylon multifilament construction creates an elastic and manageable string bed. This makes the VS-65 suitable for a broad range of strokes, from deep clears and fast drives to drops, blocks and precise net play.
The 200-metre reel is particularly suitable for clubs, coaches, frequent players and professional stringing services. Depending on racket head size, stringing pattern, knotting method and working technique, it will generally provide approximately 20 to 22 complete badminton racket restringings.
Playing feel and characteristics
The VS-65 provides a medium and balanced impact response. It feels neither especially hard nor excessively soft, providing a manageable middle ground for different playing styles.
Its good elasticity supports shuttle acceleration on clears, drives and attacking strokes. At the same time, the response remains clear enough for controlled drops, short serves and accurate placement.
At 0.65 mm, the string feels livelier than traditional 0.70 mm durability strings. Compared with extremely thin performance strings, however, it provides greater stability and more resistance during regular training and occasional off-centre contact.
The VS-65 is therefore not an uncompromising specialist string for maximum speed or maximum string life. Its main strength is the balanced combination of power, control, comfort and durability.

Important: The maximum permitted stringing tension of the badminton racket must always be observed. Damaged or sharp-edged grommets should be replaced before restringing because they can cause premature string failure.
Who should choose the VICTOR VS-65?
The VS-65 is suitable for advanced recreational players, club players and versatile competitive players looking for a straightforward all-round string. It works particularly well for players who regularly switch between attack, defence and controlled net play.
Players with medium to fast swing speeds also benefit from its elasticity and manageable shuttle acceleration. The medium response provides clear feedback without feeling excessively hard.
The VS-65 is also attractive for clubs and stringing services because it suits a broad range of players. The 200-metre reel is therefore useful as a versatile standard string for training, club play and regular stringing requirements.
Players looking for maximum speed and especially refined competition feedback may prefer a thinner string such as the VBS-63. Those with particularly high string wear will receive greater durability from a thicker 0.68 or 0.70 mm option.
Our recommendation
We recommend the VICTOR VS-65 to players and stringers looking for a balanced 0.65 mm string with good elasticity, dependable control and solid durability. It is a practical all-round choice for training, club play and versatile playing styles.
