Carlton Razor V1.2, V1.1 & Vapour Trail Elite

**DreamSeeker** · 11-05-2011, 09:44 AM

I'm thinking to buy a Carlton Racket.
The Razor 1.2 & 1.1, Vapour Trail Elite are the options

Anyone using these racket? Any good?
How good are they?
What are the different between these 3 rackets?

Heard the Prototype V1.0 is selling for 50 in other store... any good?
I'm not so sure about this.. As it called "Prototype" in its name

Thanks!

Why are they "the options" if you don't even know: if they are any good, what the difference is?

I dont mean I know nothing about them. However, I only have limited knowledge about them. I heard they are good rackets and my friend recommended me these rackets, also I wanna try the Carlton rackets.

Beside that, if I know how good they are, what the difference are, I don't need to come up and post a thread and ask about it in the first place isn't it? OMG....sigh

If you had read this thread a mere few topics lower you wouldn't have had to either ... OMG ... sigh

. Perhaps the Elite renders the 1.1 obsolete both being of the stiff headheavy kind and I have yet to see a "pro" use it unlike the 1.0 and to a much lesser extent the 1.2

The Razor 1.1 has a stiff shaft and is head heavy as the racket is aimed at players with an offensive attacking style. The Razor 1.2 has been designed for the defensive player with a flexible shaft and even balance.The VTE also has a stiff shaft with more weight in the head so similar specs to the V1.1 but without the wrap around strings at 3 and 9 o clock.
