Yeah.. he is a die hard Cab fan

i noticed the cab20 too. :)

to be fair though, XXZ's downhill coincidentally aligned with his switch to the AT700 in late 2003.

I like Zhou Mi's peach colour shirt... I mean I like that colour...

Semis.. good pics of players

Nice pictures. thanks a million ! Taufik works really hard. I think the reason why lin dan & his gf xie xingfang lost is because they are in relationship & newspaper and reporters are bugging them anddd so they can't concentrate well enough to cope with sg open....

Thanks for the pics Ants! Much appreciated! Cheers buddy.. :D

Chen Hong's shoes are awesome, see them in the between the legs shot

Fu Haifeng!! i think that's the angle problem:D. he was holding the racquet almost horizontally points to the camera, that's why you can't see it clearly.

thanks, that was what i meant.

To correct w3wmfhe, bao lai is using NS8000 :p , he never used mp88 before in tournaments. Before ns8k, i think bao was using a ti10. CH using mp99 before ns8k

Maybe I have missed it when someone has mentioned about this but is that an Armortec 700 that Peter GADE is using? Hmm, when did he start switching over from the MP-88?

I'm not sure but I think Bao used MP99 shortly ater using Ti-10 then Ns8k

Yup, Bao used the MP99 at the China Open this year, and some other opens as well(very brief period)

OMG!!! This year's Aviva Open is one of the BEST BEST BEST experiences of my life!!!!!! :D :D :D Although Fu Cai lost in QF (and they are the reason I came to watch btw), but the whole thing was great! Arghh. I snapped some pics as well; i'll upload it later... Arghhhh... I think my special thanks needs to go to Loh!!! Hahaha.. Thanks for all the superb information. Sadly I didn't know which one were you, otherwise I'll thank u personally. Hahahaha... I wonder if I've seen some of the BCF members there...:confused:

i hope my eyes arent deceiving me too.is peter gade really using the at-700????i thought he only likes to use the mp88Maybe I have missed it when someone has mentioned about this but is that an Armortec 700 that Peter GADE is using? Hmm, when did he start switching over from the MP-88?

i hope my eyes arent deceiving me too.is peter gade really using the at-700????i thought he only likes to use the mp88
Probably he realised that AT700 can give him some edge compare to Mp88.

i hope my eyes arent deceiving me too.is peter gade really using the at-700????i thought he only likes to use the mp88

This is from www.petergade.net:

In your games and on photos I see you with an MP88. Why you don't change your racket ? And what kind of string and tension do you use on your racket ?
"You are right, I am using the MP 88. I think the MP 88 and the old Isometric Slim 10 are some of the best rackets Yonex ever made. But now I am considering to change for a new racket. Maybe I will play the new Nanospeed 8000 from Yonex before the Worlds in Los Angeles in August. I am using the BG 80-string. My stringing tension is between 17-18 kp on normal stringing-machines and 14-15 kp on Babolat professional stringing-machine."

So I guess he is experimenting with new rackets.... looks like he is doing fine with at700 :D

i took a picture with Jiang Jiewen.

The players lived at the hotel just opposite my home! haha

the best part - she was buying food at the food court and everybody ignored her, even though she was wearing the china jersey with her name.

Nice Pic magical_pheonix, but why is it from behind???

Taufik and Gao Ling

argh.... taufik so cute!!!

Nice Pic magical_pheonix, but why is it from behind???

That's why... My camera is not good enough to catch them while they are playing. It's only 2.0 megapixels and it was super blurry. I wish I have a better camera >< The pics were taken during the 5-minute break before the rubber set, so I couldn't get them to turn round to have their photos taken. Otherwise, Tang XinFu will hate me to my guts. Hahahaha.

Btw what type of cameras do you guys usually use to catch such nice pics??

Where did you stay?? And which Cold Storage was that????? Argh.. I was like hanging out at Cold Storages whenever I was not at the stadium, and I never met even one player. My cousin met Candra Wijaya and Ronal Susilo in Lucky Plaza. Actually that's kinda ok though since I have got Zhang JieWen pic already at the stadium.

Maybe I have missed it when someone has mentioned about this but is that an Armortec 700 that Peter GADE is using? Hmm, when did he start switching over from the MP-88?

I think he started switching to Amortec 700 a few weeks before the Aviva open... i read it from www.petergade.net (http://www.petergade.net)...:D but i think he still plays as well as he played before switching:)

argh... i wan to meet candra too... :crying:

I want to meet Peter Gade, Mathias Boe and Carsten Mogensen...
They are very good especially Peter Gade... Carsten Mogensen gave me his shirt
after the Aviva Open Finals when me and my friends asked for his autograph in the carpark:D :D :D

Chandra Wijaya is also very good:)

heihei, you are lucky !

Yea!!!
