After all, there's no review yet.

maybe due to long break of holidays, some other hiccup, now just read through this thread. this is the post on the month.....

nevertheless, thanks for the guy who write the review.

ants since u said there is some vibration will it be enough to injure the elbow or wrist when we hit hard?

**ants** · 02-11-2009, 08:49 AM

Just a little vibration.. it will not hurt at all. Probably some may not even notice it.

i'm keen to see what it looks like.
now that GL is not being sponsored by yonex no more, i wonder who's going to be the guinea pig at the AE.

Hi Ants!

Regarding its price would be more expensive compared to Arc 10 when it first came out?

I'd imagine it'll be a similar price to the other top of the range Yonex rackets. Maybe ants can tell us more.

Gao Ling wasn't using the Nanospeed 9000.

The three well-known users were Xie Xingfang, Park Sung-Hwan and Jens Eriksen. I use 'were' because China and Korea have now moved on to other sponsors and Uncle Eriksen might call it a day any moment now.

That leaves Kendrick Lee... and he has all but given up competitive badminton.

Yes, as you said, it will be interesting to see who wields this souped-up version at the All England and Swiss Open tournaments

**taneepak** · 02-11-2009, 10:30 AM

It will be interesting to find some of this year's AE winners wearing and playing with Li Ning or Victor shirts/shoes. That will take away some of the thunder that Yonex always makes at the AE with new racquets, etc.
It won't be long before we get a Li Ning "Ants" or a Victor "Ants" to give us more reviews or rather previews of "Make in China" racquets, shoes, etc.

Yonex stockists in the UK have pegged the launch price at GBP 170.
They must be working on the basis of an official Yonex price-list.

I think it's gonna be red.

**Isegrim** · 02-11-2009, 03:12 PM

i would like a light green
