Singapore Xin Ai Ying vs Thailand Salakjit Ponsana

i think it is the same racket chen hong is using.

yes a victor racket.

Obviously, the victor logo is all over Chan/Chew. Chew has been sponsored by Victor for well over a year now. I don't recognize that racquet model but Chan Chong Ming's racquet appears, from the colour pattern, to be a Victor Power Waves 11 - no, strike that. The yellow is in the wrong place. I think it's in the wrong place for an AS-7, too, although the racquet could still be a non-Victor with a Victor logo on the strings. Chew's could be a Power Waves 12 but it's very difficult to tell.

Yeah I think it might be. I use the gold one that chen hong have and I also have pw 11 but I don't think that's it. This is why I asked because it doesn't look like any victor racquet lol. It really looks like that yonex racquet (arc saber?). BTW is that the one Bao uses?

i think it looks like a new color ti-10...

If you look at the Arc Saber 7 beside Chan Chong Ming's and the Yonex one in the top photo, I think it's quite clear that the AS-7 isn't it. I've tried to put the line at the same point in the head in all 3. It does look as if Chan's is the same as the Yonex in the top photo, though.

I think the Ti-10 is probably right.

***Oldhand*** · 01-16-2008, 01:04 AM

That should be the new Yonex Ti-10 with a Victor logo on the string-bed

But some other thing doesn't look quite right

me believe this ccm/cce will use Victor rackets. As their main sponsor wouldn`t want to look bad. Afterall dont u want ur sponsored players excell in the game with the Victor racket rather than others? Afterall they are not paid peanuts .
