I tried the Power Waves 12, its for those who do not suit stiff rackets, but most of all it can handle high tension and feels good. I strung it with Ashaway Micro Legend at 23-24lbs, my smashes are fast, and touch shots are easier to perform too because of the control overall a great racket, if you are not the smasher type of player
yy_ling, may i know where u get your power waves and how much? i cant find this racket anywhere in singapore.
hey Silver oh i bought it from amk central the shop is in a hawker centre maybe you really wanna buy PM me i give you address
Just purchase the powerwaves 11, can't wait to try it out. Picked the 11 over 12 as 12 was too flexible for my liking, previously had a supernano 5 with the same flex and slimer diamond frame couldn't generated enough power for smashes. I must say the finish and built is first rate as with victor rackets, definately worth the price of s$110.
Got a few enquiries on where the racket was bought, i got from so far cheapest place for victor as he is the one who brings it in together with SOTX (he don't sell SOTX but sends to his friend Mr Soh). Mr Lim of Artric pacific, powerwaves series $110, nano series $100.
Oh, you must be a regular at that shop? Cos i enquired before got a different price from you. He offered me $120 for the powerwaves i think...
Didn't buy much from him but always go to his shop and chat with him. Nice guy, unfortunately his 2 knot stringing i don't prefer as much as 4 knot from kemin. Previously only bought a super nano5 and some shuttles only.
S$110! What a bargain! Brown's in Toronto, where I got a great price on my Super Nano, is selling the 11 for C$190. $70 more than their current SN price. PW aren't available in Korea yet, I don't think. They have it on the Victor Korea website but it isn't in any of the online shops. Even Mattshop in Taiwan, which I thought had the best Victor prices, wants S$134 as the members' price.
Hey blacvios, Looking forward to your review and comments for the Power Waves 11 soon. I am considering that model also....
I note that Mr Lim at Atric now sells at least three brands of rackets with this "Inner Wave" technology: Hart, Toalson, and Victor.
I cannot claim to know which of the three brands is better at the "Inside Wave" technology. For all I know they are clones of each other. Quite possible don't you think? What I do know about the Hart Infinite Nano Flex series that has the wave technology: tapered shaft, slightly "oversized" racket head, 82 hole grommet system. But like I mentioned in another thread, the Hart racket (or at least the one I have) seems to have a problem whereby the same brand and type of grip absorbs less sweat when wrapped on the Hart, compared to the other rackets I have. And it is less powerful than the Protech Maxo Nano 6000 I have, same string and same tension. Could be the Hart is too (head) light.
That sounds good. But have you tried the racquet yet? Any initial thoughts? Btw what is your string's tension? blackvios, looks like for the sake of those that are far away, you might still have to do them a favour with at least a short review...
