    Nanocubic string

    Hi,
    Interesting item. Do Yonex have this string in Singapore or Malaysia? Love to hear comments from BC members. Thanks.

    Er, it's a Gosen string, not a Yonex string :rolleyes:

    Sounds like more pseudo-scientific nano-nonsense to me. No idea whether the string is any good.

    I have that Gosen BS-900 string sitting on my desk (for a quite while) , so far I haven't have the chance to try it out yet. :p

    Hopefully I will have time to test it this coming weekend.

    i agree that Nano is a hot word nowadays. I wont be suprise if he hear some nAnoPhones coming up too. I hope the nanostrings will last longer and give you extra feel and touch.

    I can't quite make out all the text in the link I originally posted at the top, but it SOUNDS like it's got good feel and touch... can anyone translate the little 6 point ratings chart?

    Well.. Short summary:

    Its name is also BS900.

    It's 0.70 gauge goldbrown (bronse) colour (looks quite nice)..

    It's really really good durability, and it seems to hold tension extremeley well..repulsion is ok.. But not as good as thinner options like BG80,BG66Sharp.

    There isn't much structure on the surface so it doesnt "grip" the shuttle that much on spinning/slices (which would be my major gripe)..

    Gosen Nanocubic is 0.70, Yonex NBG95 is 0.69 .. I usually prefer thinner strings.. I am puzzled why Yonex and Gosen don't use this technology on 0.68 or even 0.65 gauge strings.. Thats where durability is needed even more (at least for me)...

    /T

    I've tried a few packs of BS 900 on 2 Gosen Aermet 3600, 1 Aermet 5300 racquets. Very durable.

    I was going to recommend people to use the babel fish online translator to read my posts in chinese, however, I just realized how bad babel fish is in translating Chinese->English!! :eek:

    For example, with babel fish translation,
    "BlueJeff" became "Blue color outstanding husband", and now I am really speechless!! :eek:
