it's not new year yet:p

and I don't think ANts will answer before yonex says he can...the fact that the nanospeed9000 had 2 flavours was onyl revealed +-5 days before the official presentation...

afaik, the at700 has a new colour, and mp55 is released, the nanospeed7700 is already up for sales (in japan...)

so maybe a new series, or just a dull year:rolleyes:
Maybe the new series will be 2U headheavy rackets:D
one can only hope;)

I think after we had some headlight series (nanospeed) and headheavy series (armortec) it might be time for a whole new series which is mostly balanced. Going from one extreme to another.

2006 was a super busy year for Yonex with all sorts of odd models:

Muscle power 7, 8, 9, 623, 628, 630
ISO 653, 663
NC Tuff 8 and 9
AT150 , 250

Five days beforehand? That's like...5 whole days before mere mortals know. That's good enough for me. :p

I believe that a new AT "might" come out. Because AT is the only series not achieved "9". Also, I believe there "might" be a new series as well because most series have achieved "9". What new series will be next? IMO, it won't be Armet nor Woven since they are already used by other companies. There's one thing I know: New products will be released later than ever due to some internal adjustments.

???What exactly do you mean by " internal adjustments"? Why are products going to be released later?

Yonex is said to be having some internal process adjustments which will lead to delay of everything.

There will be few rackets coming out next year. EggRoll did asked me before but i can't confirm with him since i have not receive any concrete details yet as i don't want to mis-inform others. And i do agree with EggRoll that the company tends to delays their product lineup launches. Have to finalise this and finalise that.. change this change that. Anyway lucky him that he works for Yonex and i don't. However i would say that even some products will be out in Overseas market before Japan does. Its also due to the demand of the "distributor". For example items like the Armortec Limited Edition. However Japan have things done their way which you guy would not understand. But i would say that they pay more attention to quality than any thing else. I you know what i mean. Heheh... anyway i've submitted some responds and feedbacks of the new stuffs.

Dang it. I'll have to change my handle. U guys are going to be too suspicious!

There are new rackets coming but you will just have to wait. I will not undermine the effect of a new product launch! You guys see them on the websites before I get the actual sample. I'll let you know in January! Even then there can be changes before the production run!

I didn't sign a NDA with Yonex so I can post all the misinformation I want. :p

Just kidding of course, I'm quite content with my Cab 20 Tour...unless Yonex brings out a Cab 31 MSP...Muscle Power that's similar to the Cab 22...oh yeah! ;) :D

Trump to Miss USA: You're not fired!

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Everyone expected Donald Trump to utter his catchphrase "You're fired!" to Miss USA on Tuesday but instead the billionaire gave the beauty queen a second chance after reports of misbehavior including underage drinking.

The Mp in the Japan made rackets will stay intact as far I know for 2007. These include the 44,66,88,99 and I think they still bring the 100 in for the USA but not Canada.

Nope, the MP100 has been discontinued in the U.S. for over 2 years. :)
