Hi all, I just join this forum. I live in Singapore and I am looking for a new APACS racket that has specs like the following... Flex: Flexible Head: Square/Isometric Weight: 3U or 4U Balance: Head heavy Tension: Can take up to 20-26lb and above High or low end rackets are OK. Thanks in advanced for any suggestions and comments. ^_^ This brand sounds rare to me, where can I buy APACS racket in Singapore? Any shops to recommend?
Flexible + head heavy + 4U = You are looking for apacs virtuoso performance Try sportshorizon in Malaysia you can get it for 199RM which is about $100sg ..?
Not quite as head-heavy and only a tiny bit stiffer than the Virtuoso performance is the APACS Slayer 88. Everyone's tastes are different but in my very small APACS experience I found S88 faster in defense and offense than the Virtuoso. (It's probably cheaper too)
I've just checked the racket u mentioned above. http://www.sportshorizon.com/products/901003-100609/Apacs-Virtuoso-Performance Looks good. For APACS racket, those rated as medium flex, is it flexible? As in can it flex easily and therefore no need to use too much strength to hit far?

If you normally use flexible rackets it should very comfortable for you. If you normally use stiff rackets, it's flexibility will be very noticeable
I'm currently using toned nanospeed 5500, I read that it's a medium flex shaft. So I'm thinking to try a flexible shaft racket, to see if hitting far is really effortless. Heehee
Just went to a few local shops. I list a few I am interested to find out more: Foray 707 Accurate SG Virtuoso Performance Lethal 15 If you all tried any of those, feel free to comment on it. By the way, the sportshorizon price for apacs racket is unbeatable. Local shops markup the price by a lot.
I would suggest the Feather weight 100 or Feather weight 300, both are light and little bit head heavy but flexy for sure. You will be suprise how good they performance for clear from back court. Ben
Slayer 88 is much more expensive than VP, at least at my place. i got my new VP at RM150 frame only from AJ Racket Mart in Puchong, Malaysia. not sure if they do shipping to SG and the charges. you can search them up in FB. i come from SW35 and VP is very easy to adapt to, for me. head heavy yet fast but overall weight is not too heavy. the only downside is it vibrates a little upon heavy impact, like when you thunder down a smash. i find their Tweet series more stable but it's twice as expensive as the VP, in the RM2xx - 3xx range. Tweet8k is stiff and head heavy. Tweet6k is mid flex and even balance. have not tried Tweet7k before though. Tweet has hexagon frame, like Victor Meteors, which makes them fast.
