"Heresy" Transforms
The INFERNO series has risen to become GOSEN's flagship racket brand, winning the hearts of countless players. Its radical corrugated shape—deemed "heresy" by some—and its universally acclaimed design have redefined the game.
Yet, even perfection has its limits. The question burned:
What’s missing from the INFERNO? What lies beyond the INFERNO?
The relentless pursuit of answers led us to a breakthrough. In our mission to create the ultimate racket, we reimagined the INFERNO’s iconic frame, pushing boundaries once thought insurmountable.
The result? A hybrid frame that fuses corrugated and hexagonal shapes, delivering unparalleled shuttlecock control and devastating smash power. This revolutionary design also reduces overall weight, easing fatigue and enhancing racket efficiency, empowering players to perform at their peak.
The outcome is not just a racket—it’s a weapon of precision, power, and aggression.
Its name: COCYTUS.

Technology of COCYTUS
Hybrid-INFERNO Frame
The hybrid construction features an aerodynamic shape from 11 o’clock to 1 o’clock, paired with the wave-shaped design signature to the INFERNO frame. This combination ensures frame rigidity and a crisp hitting feel. The differing rigidity and airflow between the top (aero) and sides (wave-shaped INFERNO design) enhance head effectiveness, delivering superior shuttlecock control and handling precision.

Mitsubishi Chemical Carbon
PYROFIL
In specialized designs, the precision of carbon prepregs exceeds that of conventional products.
COCYTUS exclusively utilizes Mitsubishi Chemical's PYROFIL, renowned for its performance in aerospace and golf shaft applications.
Additionally, the all-hot-melt manufacturing method enhances strength and delivers a sharper, more defined hitting feel compared to traditional carbon prepreg techniques.
High-Pressure
Mouding Shaft
Through advanced carbon density optimization, we’ve unlocked the ability to create thinner, stronger shafts without compromising durability. The result? A remarkable 11% increase in flexibility, setting a new standard for power and precision.
High-Pressure Mouding Shaft
The increased internal density minimizes the number of carbon layers wrapped around the shaft, enhancing overall flexibility and whip-like responsiveness.
Choice of the Impact Feeling
Single grommet placement delivers a direct impact feel and enhances rally speed for competitive play.
Standard Single Grommet
for sharp impact feeling
COCYTUS offers a choice of single grommets or 6-connected grommets, allowing players to customize for a sharp or soft impact feeling based on their playing style.
Stability-Amplify Bumper
for soft impact feeling
The 6-connected grommet placement enhances vibration absorption on impact, allowing for precise control over subtle variations in shuttle speed.
