This thread discusses "Panda Power" branded rackets, designed by BC's own Dinkalot.. shouldn't be too hard to read the first post in the thread!

The website say, we can choose our racket specs?
This mean I can choose the balance point and flex level and weight?

Have anyone done this, does it cost a lot to order it?

The website also says "contact us". Why not drop the Panda a line and ask him yourself? dcbadminton@gmail.com.
Or your regional dealer: appleton_strings@yahoo.co.uk
Good luck!

Hey. Love the Panda TPros.

Just recently busted another one though. Multiple mishits at the 11 o'clock position. Started off looking like a crack in the clear coat. Also busted two T2's previously. One of them definitely started off as a clash at the 5 o'clock then eventually snapped on a mishit. For the other one. I can't remember exactly how it happened but it broke at the 5 o'clock as well. 3 out of the 5 Panda's I have have busted I'd have to give 9/10 on the paint/clear coat durability (Karakal takes 10/10) with nary a blemish on my many mishits and scrapes. I can't give much more than average on overall durability. These were the only rackets I have ever broken after using Yonex (first 10+ years), Apacs (2 years) and Karakal (2 years). Been using Panda for about 2 years as well now as well.

Still going to buy another one

Holy crap it looks so gooooooood! I can't wait!

So, what are the P Pro specs again?

What kind of frame design is it? Like T2 or P? Or completely new?

Relative to T2 and P and U Pro, how's it compare in stiffness, attack, defence, power, feel, stability, etc?

[BlankShot]

@visor - here you go.

Update:

Coming soon: a new and completely redesigned Panda Power Precision Limited Edition.

Specs:
Weight: 85-88g
BP 290-300
Stiffness: 7.5-8.0
Grip: G5

The new Precision is actually going to be used by a current, active top international player.
He was so impressed with the new Precision he's purchasing 15 of them with his own money.

The new Precision benefits:

1) Much stronger frame than its predecessor, warranted up to 32lbs. ECP string tension.
Using Toray M40J graphite (30% stronger/more tensile strength than M40, at a loss of only 3% in stiffness)

2) Improved butt cap
3) Improved finish
4) Stronger, more durable shaft.

Will post an image of the design in about a day.

Thanks all!
