    You guys won't be disappointed at all. It's currently my favourite racket. :D

    I've also noticed that the MX JJS is slightly more aerodynamic than the other meteors. The T-Joint area is noticeably smaller and more aero than my MX80. The shaft also seems marginally thinner.

    Yup ~ MS JJS aint bad at all :) my second to go racket after MX80
    I've been using JJS ever since my elbow suffered mild pain and it helps
    Definitely worth trying for those who like less stiff version of MX80

    Receiving my JJS 4UG2 2 days ago, after 2session i found that the swing speed is extreamly well but one things makes me hectic is that the smash power is not that good. i do own a 3U before but is not really suitable. any advice for me coz 3U smash provide good power but swing speed not suit me, 4U swing speed is superb but not good in power. seems like i m the problem but not the racket.. haha. i do bought 2pcs 4U from Taiwan.

    Yeh i dont like 4us :p I think that racket was rly designed over a 3u concept so its likely to lack power at 4u...if you rly think it doesnt suit you, well go for a more flex racket even balanced 4u and see what it gives you

    That is normal... if you want heavier racket, you will get more power but sacrifice on the swing speed hence the defence. Likewise, if you want faster swing speed, you have to sacrifice power... maybe you can try adding lead tape to make it more head heavy. Otherwise, train up your strength and get the 3U. Then, you will have powerful smash and able to swing fast too... IMHO

    The rackets are produced over a weight range, so you could possibly find a light 3U or heavy 4U.
    That's my understanding anyway.

    it bcoz the weight of mx jjs is distributed to the side frame+top of racket frame.. but the balance point still 295-297mm.

    i mean when it has not been attached with string and additional grip <-- the original victor grip could still on the racket. hopefully can understand :D

    additional grip = adding more towel or rubber grip besides the original victor one.

    Victor spec the rackets without the plastic wrap, but with the factory grip. afterall they don't expect you to play with the plastic wrap on. :)

    my 4U SW35 feels slightly heavier than my 3U MX-JJS, both HK coded and wet weight.....go figure.
