    Hi people.

    Seems there are some web shop selling this nanospeed 5000 already. I'm kinda surprised since its release is so low-key. Could any of you share the experience after using it? Or is there any point trying it at all?

    from the sounds of it, and even the looks to a certain extent, its kinda like an 8000... very wierd indeed.

    I don't know about european distribution only. I tried it at the end of last year, and I live in New Zealand.

    Unfortunately my on-the-spot adaptability is somewhat... lacking...
    Needless to say, the only certainty was that it was head heavy. That, and it does exist :)

    ns5000 is rated at medium flex according to official yonex chart posted at Yonex showroom WTC. I think the WTC member price is 2,950 baht or S$128.

    National Stadium shops no stock, but usually they sell at least 10% less than WTC, so looking at less than S$115.

    You "think???" :eek:

    Maybe you should think more carefully and read the existing posts on NS5000 before you post your inaccurate thoughts. You mean all of us are talking about a non-existent racquet?

    Cool down, well i guess he never read the thread properly. That's all.

    Back to the topic, Hands on the Nanospeed 5000 before. All i can say is not bad at all. But still consider the price u pay in singapore, need to consider twice before u get it.

    yup, wait for the National Stadium BKK shops to get it in stock, it'll be about $115 (estimate 10% less than Yonex WTC)

    I've used my friends NS5000, and to be honest it didn't feel that nice. But then again I'm used to how a Cab 20 feels, and it still had the stock BG65ti strings on there. He also paid waaay to much for it (£108!).

    i have a nanospeed 5000 now, feels good, similar to the 7000, as suggested...

    very light and easy to manouvere..

    anyone with links, reviews, or specs for this racket? opinions? anything?
