    looks like they will stop producing PW11 and have SW33P to replace it.
    likely i will get the SW33C to try out.

    SW33P colour scheme look nice to me. Is artery tec 95 ti and pw10 going to be high end model or just in the mid range?

    They have not released specifications or prices on 2008 models. But judging from the functional chart above, both are high end models similar to SW and SN series.

    SW32 (Gold color) is in the market awhile, but the SW33 P&C not out yet.
    Heong: PM me if you're looking for SW32, I can hunt its price for you :)

    wocdam, is the sw31 more stiff than the sw32?
    i downloaded the victor catalog and the stiffness rating for sw32 is "stiff" while the sw31 is "dynamic stiff". also in the catalog, pw 12 is "dynamic stiff" while pw11 is "stiff". I heard that the pw11 is much stiffer than the pw12 so i'm just wondering if the sw32/pw11 and sw31/pw12 have the same stiffness ratings.

    Superwaves 31 stiffness is not for the faint of heart. :)

    there is a slight difference in the Power Waves series outside Asia. In Europe for example, PW11 is a much "softer" racket than PW12 (you can do a seach on the thread). For Asia, SW31 and PW11 are both very stiff rackets, whereas SW32 and PW12 are just stiff

    Victor brand is hardly been carried by any racket shop in KL city.
    SW32 is more maneuverable than SW31, SW31 need little more effort to execute. I would say SW32 "feels alike" PW12, SW31 = PW 11. Somebody could explain more detail about these, I hope.
