:DAhem just wanna share my experience with this great racket, so lets get started. I consider my self just a beginner player with a so-so technique and opinions might differ to people with different skill levels so bear with me:p

weight :4UG2
cosmetics :red with a black and gray parts at the frame
string : Yonex BG66 at 26lbs using 2 knot
grip : original grip + karakal PU super grip
stiffness : stiff
BP : 278mm after stringing and applying grip, sorry didnt have the chance to measure the BP before stringing.

First impressions :
Cosmetics is beautiful , the paint and finishing is very good.When i swing the racket it feel really light, i didnt measure the weight of the racket but to me the racket is really light comparing to my Yonex mp 99.

Game time :
warming up the racket is very easy to get used to, lobs and clears can be done with ease but the smashes are a little hard to get the timing right may be because of the lightweight of racket or maybe because of my technique:D
when its time to play i can definitely feel a diference immediately to my game, before i used this racket when i try to smash to side lines usually it goes out but with the lethal 70 it goes in all the time.the defense is superb too my return smash now can go further to back court.

Overall i play mens double and sometimes single, i think the lethal 70 is great for both doubles and single.
Ps:
when i look this racket for the first time at the shop, i feel like its calling to me:D telling me that this racket is the one for me and its true.Now main racket is the lethal 70 and i'l never switch again.

dont be too sure you wont switch haha.
even though that is a good racket for you,
in 10 years time you may realise that technology has improved so much to the extend of having super badminton rackets for everyone :P.
