    interesting find!

    especially since it is not a badminton racket, it is a squash racket. this is the first time i have seen a Yonex squash racket!

    (moved to Equipment Forum for the historical value)

    well I kinda had a feeling that it was a Squash Raquet. But I thought the significance of it being it a Yonex Raquet and we know how popular Yonex is in the Badminton world.

    I have one :D

    with 18 main and 18 cross

    I think it should be a squash racket, since Yoneyama (older generation of Yonex) already have stainless steel shaft.
