Nict_26, there did you buy your Fleet racket from?

**wmkoo** · 07-01-2012, 11:20 AM

I came across two Fleet companies - one in Malaysia (http://www.fleet.com.my/index.htm) and the other in Taiwan (http://www.fleetsports.com.tw/index.html).

Interestingly, the models of Fleet rackets they are selling are slightly different and also the designs of the rackets that are of the same model are also slightly different. The quality of the rackets from the Taiwan company seem to be better. Interesting...

I currently use Fleet Woven II (generation) and the racket is even balance.
Has a Unique Racket Frame design and the racket itself is really stable

Since I came from Taiwan (even though I live in US) , Fleet is a popular brand in Taiwan

Does Fleet Woven II is the same as Woven 999 II like the one in Malaysia. . ?

I don't think so. Like I said earlier, they are slightly different in terms of design and quality. In Malaysia, the equivalent model is Grand Woven 1000 II.

**Polaroid** · 07-03-2012, 03:39 AM

I think its either the same model name ( Woven 1000 II) or a name that the Malaysia fleet company uses

I doubt Woven 999 II is same as 1000 II

here's the picture of the racket from Taiwan's Fleet

fleet rackets are awesome. i've owned a few in the past, woven ti-888, 2x woven-1000, and now the woven 8000. i find that they are extremely durable, and very cheap. and most of all, they meet my specs, which are stiff and balanced to slightly head heavy XD

**johnnxiv** · 07-04-2012, 07:30 PM

Is there one with Head Heavy, Stiff, and 4u?

**cycilver** · 07-04-2012, 10:28 PM

im sure there are, i dont know of any models specifically but they do have quite a few models overall

**wmkoo** · 07-04-2012, 10:31 PM

Are you getting the Taiwan-made or Malaysia-made stocks as they are quite different.

**cycilver** · 07-04-2012, 10:36 PM

ive been getting the taiwan stocks, looking forward to trying the malaysian super high tension models in the future

I also owned Fleet woven series, honestly speaking, woven series is the only best in Fleet and the 2012 model provides you with the octagon design, you can swing fast like hell. In TW and MY, they usually used the different branding but the racket quality is usually the same.

I am using MY coded Woven 3800, no vibration. 3u, but feeling is just like 4u for Yonex Racket, due to different materials in the middle of strucn. If you have chance you could try it out, I bet Fleet Woven wont disappointing you with their powers.

**wmkoo** · 07-13-2012, 03:40 AM

Loneboy62, I don't agree as I have seen both actual TW and MY models and they are quite different in quality. In terms of models, if you compare their catalogues, the model between TW and MY are also different.

Just bought myself a fleet professional 7100.
Good control and great power from the racket. I agree that the LAD from the racket plays like BS. If u would like a cheaper alternative to BS, u can try the professional or Woven series. Both has LAD...

Have heard great things about the woven series. Going to try to get a woven as my next racket.
