There was a thread recently with some educated guessing that PG uses a 4U version, but no one seems to be able to verify this. Photos have been taken showing that LCW uses a 3U version.

I don't really think LCW's smash has become more potent - if you watch most of his games in 2010, he was already producing comparable power smashes.

I agree.
I think is not a Z-Slash. I have a Z-Slash and the arc on the top of the head is totally diferent.

Straight from the Russian manual

. The dog one is actually the old vid, here is the more recent one http://rt.com/news/medvedev-putin-badminton-time/

I guess we can add: Vladimir Putin - Prime Minister Russia: Yonex NS9900

edit: here is the long version (finally) http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xj8...badminton_news (around 3:30)
Just as good as his judo skills

Guys, can we stick to professional players in this thread. You should maybe start a "celebreties players and their rackets" thread :-)

Made you look?

So I was bored and decided that I would watch some badminton on Youtube. So I ended up watching Tago (Z user) vs Hidayat Malaysia Open QF 2011. So I was watching it so I could see the differences between the rackets to see if Taufik was indeed using a Z Slash or not. And guess what ? I looked closer and it turned out that Hidayat was using a regular Arc10 for this match. And even when he broke a string he switched to another regular Arc10.So what does this mean ?Well IMO it means that Taufik had none of his repaints available, so he was using his regular Arc10. He would be surely using a standard ArcZ if that was what his LTD racket was based on.Try and argue with that ? Before you ask for pictures feel free to watch the QF match to see for yourself.

like i said before, its up to all of you to argue.....just remain me to upload the picture, soon after TH retired

...one thing im sure is that the racket i ve held before is customized....yes its physically arc 10 with slash TH paint job...but im sure thats not standart arc10 like in the market...the racket even lighter than my slash TH bot so solid
