The first long racket?

[bluejeff]

Today, I was playing badminton at the gym. After some games, I was tired and sat down. Then, I started looking at my ISO-TI-SP-SR, and all the sudden, I was thinking, "what is the first long racket?":)

Also, why did they introduce the long racket? Was it requested by the pros? or?

Ti-10?

or is it the Isometric 900?

which one comes first?

I have seen some rackets such as CAB15 Long (pretty old), so I am not sure..............

Should be Pro-kennex, but I cannot remember the exact model name. The two models should be in Blue and Black checkers and Grey and Black checkers.

Pro-kennex introduced 1cm longer racket in 1993. At the same moment, the lastest YY racket is ISO 500 in regular lenght.

It is very impressive since I was a storekeeper and a Pro-kennex long racket was stolen.:p

I play with a guy that uses a Cab 7 long racquet. It is really old, he said he's had it for at least 15 years.
