just wonder yonex next publish racket? what will they name it? and what is the material... ? anyone got some news? hehe...
Maybe they'll start using real nano-tubes instead of fullerene.. and call it NanoTube instead of NanoSpeed or use inner-wave frame technologi call it Muscle-frame.. or go Woven material, and call it NanoWeave or use Tera-axial woven and call it TetraSpeed "Life is like a box of chocolate..." - Forrest Gump /Twobeer
I think they'll stick to scientific prefixes for a while and go with Picospeed, Femtospeed, Attospeed, etc. They need some kind of vicious animal name in their line-up, to be honest, or a semiprecious stone (RSL's Diamond X-1 has got to be the best racket name ever).
Probably some sort of design will be the name, not the materials used. Like muscle power, or armortec (in reference to the two different frame designs), unlike Ti or Nanospeed (reference to design materials).
Twobeer predicts [probability 0.6] Scandium!!! there you have it... Very light and very strong, with a 70% weight to strength advantage over steel and 40% over graphite, Scandium was considered to be a material of strategic importance and only recently has been de-classified for civilian use. Scandium + gum-metal = the next level... "Scandinavia 1K" ? /Twobber
1) my best guess is there will be no new line due out next year. That is why the 07 catalog was out so late. 2) The next in line might be XXX-001 (not x-rated). I mean 3 letters-001, 3 letters-002.
