    Is shipping from Singapore to US is more expensive or the same, compared to Taiwan to US?

    Let me put it this way... For me shipping from Toronto to Vancouver (within Canada) is the same as from Taiwan to Vancouver... and takes just as long... :p

    Thinking about it some more, looks like the 8PS, from clawhammers RRI table, is very much like the venerable BS10.

    Yes visor I know he meant stiffness. I just can't remember which BS it was that had a 2/5 stiffness rating because they were confusing those few years with the Taiwanese coded pieces

    Sorry for the confusion. I probably could/should have a look at those screen shots but I asked the question before engaging my brain.

    When my brain comes back and I've taken a look I'll report back. Also FINALLY about to get my hands on a BS, will loan it to [MENTION=96935]dbswansea[/MENTION] for review when he gets a JS.

    Any further thoughts on the Jetspeed 8PS and ST? How it compares to BS 9/10/11/12 in terms of stiffness, balance etc?

    I hope to receive my demo rackets this month but as yet there is no definite date. I'll post my review as soon as I can.

    On a positive note I've placed an order for both rackets with Eric so hopefully they'll come by the end of the next work week in time for my Sunday games :D Sadly I couldn't get the 8PS in 90g as the heaviest he had left was 88g ;( But I'll make do.

    Good for you! Then I'll await your reviews on both, compared to the usual BS frames. :)

    I'll do my best but I won't be taking out my BS 09 and 12 to test side by side though..I'll have to go on memory because I've used both so much that the shafts for both are far too flexible now :( fortunately I've used both as my go to over everything else I've had so it should be as fair a comparison as I can make.

    I know this is off topic but can we complain to moderators and have this person warned or banned? I wanna keep this forum free of useless posts too.
