    One thing I can say about it is that some of the models arent as durable as Yonex racquets.

    I was playing doubles, and my partner had a Victor racquet. When the opponents had done a bad lift, I called 'mine!' and went for the smash. Then suddenly, my idiotic partner put his racquet infront of me so I ended up smacking his racquet instead and his frame got cracked, but my poor Mp40 was in perfect condition after the collision. :D :D

    I used a Victor Lightning 3339, the pikachu. I find it very durable as I have hit my partners racket many times and he has hit my racket many times. It has a handful of paint chips but no cracks. Then again it is a 2U and seems very stable. It's not very high end and so that might be the reason why. Any ideas on this?

    personally, I would recommend a 3U racket. mine is a 4U, far too light, especially with the even balance of the racket. but for a bit cheaper, you can get a Power Waves 11, which is rather good.

    i recently bought a Victor Magan ATB 5500. must say that until now, i don't really like the feel of it. the bridge make the racket a bit too dead when you hit the birdie. still getting used to it though and am doin some racket altering to make it better. .

    I use Victor Powerwave 11. It is the first racquet I ever used. It is pretty durable. (Most of my Yonex racquet broke after 6 months - fracture of the wood under the cap). One thing I don't like about it is that is it not very good for defence. I used my gf's Ti7 Light and it is a lot more responsive.

    agreed, i definitely would put PW11 as a all out offensive racket.
