    Hi,

    I broke my AT 500, I need a new racket.

    I would like to buy Brave Sword 08 or 09.

    Since there is not much about Brave Sword 09.

    Does anyone has experience with Brave Sword 09?
    Hope they can share it.

    Thanks.

    BS09 is slighty more flex than 08. Others feel same :D

    Thank you.

    I like to smash , does it mean the BS08 should be more suitable to me?

    Depend on your wrist :D If you have a good wrist then 08 is better to transfer your energy but if not then 09 flex will help you to generate more power than 08.

    I feel that for Victor's racquet, even the supposedly stiff racquets like BS08/09 are not that stiff as compared to other brands (RSL, SOTX, Mizuno etc). So if you smash using your arm rather than wrist, it is still ok.

    For me, Victor's racquet has always been very "friendly" in the sense that it is easy to use, the power is more accessible compare to other brands.

    i own both sticks and agree with your view. the bs08 is also head heavier compared to the bs09 imho

    BS09 is an comfortable racket because its anti-shock function is very good.
