Do they sell the latest Yonex rackets? And at what price??
thanx
funkylars 11-25-2002, 02:14 AM Thanks for the info Mark it's a big help but i'd would be even nicer if i could find a stringer in Amsterdam or at least closer than Haarlem. Maybe you'll hear something.
Thanks again
Lars
Mark Keizer 11-25-2002, 02:51 AM Hi Pieter,
They do sell the latest Yonex rackets, but pretty expensive. In what models are you interested? I get a good discount, because I do the buying for my club.
Which models do you like?
Pieter 11-26-2002, 08:01 AM Hi Mark,
Thanks for the reply, but yesterday I have bought a Ti Swing Power sx (blue version) for 126,- euros. The shop had a big collection of rackets and the clerk actually seemed to understand what he was talking about. :) I hope I didn't pay to much.....
Mark Keizer 11-26-2002, 08:09 AM Hi Pieter,
Excellent choice! I also bought one last week, only I had the SR version. In what shop did you buy your racket? The price is also very good!
Where do you play the game?
Mark
Pieter 11-26-2002, 08:39 AM It is good to hear I didn't get ripped of. I bought my racket in Tilburg at Wilkin Sports. They have a website at www.wilkinsports.nl Their price was 140 but they were willing to give me a 10 percent discount.
They had both versions (blue and red) of the swing power. The clerk said that there wasn't a lot of difference between the two, but he recommended the blue version. Perhaps you know the main difference?
Mark Keizer 11-26-2002, 09:14 AM There are 4 types of Ti Swingpower. The order is: SX-SS-SR-SA where the SA is the most flex.
The SX is for the offensive hard-hitter(stiff) and the SA is for the defensive control-player, according to the Yonex chart.
Now you have an excellent racket, when can we expect your name in the dutch top100?
Pieter 11-26-2002, 09:56 AM Hahahaha. If something like that was to happen than this racket would truly be a miracle!!!
But what I meant with the different versions was that yonex seems to have a new (red?) and old (blue?) version of the Ti Swing Power. And I was wondering if there were differences between these two.
How much did you pay for your SR and what colour is it?
Mark Keizer 11-26-2002, 10:12 AM I used it last weekend for the first time in my official matches, and i won everything!!!
Maybe there's some magic in it...
The TI SP SR from last year was blue colored, and was also available in the 4 flex types. I have the orange/black/red, it is the one as displayed on yonex.com. It feels exactly the same as the one from last year. Maybe they changed some little thing that I do not know.
Maybe the blue paint is heavier or lighter than the orange paint... ;-)
Do you also play in Tilburg?
