Sorry, I cannot answer all your questions.

Then you are at the highest level if you play doubles.

Unless I played singles, I'd never opt for an extreme head heavy racket again.

i look forward to seeing your new racquet mr dink.
True about not the racquet but the player being the most important factor in play. I prefer using relatively even balanced racauet (ti 10) because it allows for strong smashes and speed. My brother on the other hand now uses woven 7 to smash his way through. Probably need to get another one for him before tournaments.

Um, if you need someone to test your product and post a favourable review, you know where to send one, don't you?

the only thing that i scare of, the rackets will turn into bamboo(food) for master NGP.

Thanks for a very good read (post#355), Master Panda. This is hard to come by nowadays.

I thought you hung up your rackets for some unknown reasons but good to know it's the contrary. You even gone up one level.

*Respect*
Picture of the PANDA POWER PANDAMONIUM please.

The racket is all black right now, no design yet.

I think I will have a contest for a racket design and the winner will receive a few of PPPs. I'll have 1st, 2nd, 3rd place to make it more interesting.

Sound like fun?

**chrishin** · 03-11-2009, 10:44 PM

ohh all black. even better.

I failed in every single test/exam that is Art/Graphics Design related.
Good luck to all other BCers.

Sounds like a clever way to get a few dozen free designs!

PS: The easiest method is to do what other manufacturers do - copy, brazenly copy, copy away!

..all black, eh??..sounds like the old Yonex Blackie...Heck, might as well call it Blackie 2..

I'm looking fw to seeing your new PPP at..................................one of the local badminton clubs, one day..

**arturosauce** · 03-12-2009, 02:45 AM

i imagine that the design of the racket will be black and white, similar to the kblaze, but with a look similar to that of a panda's coat.

dinkalot, you mentioned before that the APACS specs were off. so it would be safe to assume that the descriptions of the rackets will be based on your discoveries as opposed to the advertised specs, right?

I'd love to enter... but do you accept a design made with MS Paint?

(or is there a super secret racket-designing software package floating around on the web?)

I think you should just steal the babolat Xfeel blast paintjob...I love the look of that thing

Of course, why would Panda put up useless or inaccurate information? We already have that.

im still just waiting to see the newest review! The new reviews im eager to see are some apacs, and chao pai, although im pretty sure i can guess what the reviews will say. "Great bang for the Buck!"

Dink, i didnt know you were venturing into racket manufacturing!!! Plz do choose a good color scheme. Its sad to see a wonderfully awesome racket like the woven 7 with a pretty bad-a** color scheme, and then see sotx follow it up with what they did to the w7i. I think you said something like "It was beat with an ugly stick"

My thoughts exactly.

Jerby, MS paint fails. There are some excellent free image editing applications readily available on t'internet. Check out the GIMP and Paint.NET. There are many others also, Google is your friend.

**jerby** · 03-12-2009, 03:38 PM

well, I'm trying to download osme rand0om stuff, hadn't come across paint.net though, thanks!
The problem is more, say one of us makes a pretty picture, the racket-manufacturer still has to switch it over to their software/designers-stuff for the racket-manufacturing...
