    And that relates to the topic....how? If you don't compare it to a Victor racket, there's no real point posting that here...

    Easy j4ckie... He's a swede which means he has probably just been in Copenhagen for "cheap" beers. ;)

    Alright, alright - coupled with your nickname it seemed like an advert. Sorry ;)
    The specs you stated are not really very helpful, but I'd recommend trying the Super Waves series....either a 35/36 (x-stiff/dynamic stiff) or wait for the 30...some of the Braveswords are slightly head heavy, but don't really play that way and none are in the 300 area.

    Sorry, no idea. I only possess the MX80, and it's the stiffest racket I know (never tested Forza though).

    There's not enough difference in my mind between the MX80 and 70. Stiffness suits the Meteor design and I'm not convinced that 'less is more' at this stage. The new Bravesword LYD and 15 are on spec the first head heavy Braveswords (aside from the 'mildly' head heavy BS11) but they won't be readily available for another month or two.

    speculating from the changes they made from the SW35 to the SW37, the new MX60 would be much easier to unleash the power and slightly less heavy head from raw balance point but still have a heavy head feel due to its extra flexibility.

    Doesn't that make it a repainted MX-70?
    With the same balance as the rest of the Meteor series?

    Call me a freak, but I decided to overlay as best I could the head shapes of the BSLYD and BS15, and this is what I got -

    LYDvsBS15.jpg

    Attempted to make sure the scales were both the same, and lined up the ends of the cones on each. Whichever way you look at it, the LYD has a more 'rounded' headshape, and the 15 is more elongated. Whether or not in reality it's also going to be narrower and as people are hypothesising - a kinda Z-Slash/VTT style design - is still open to debate.
