hey bro, i use victor 850 for my BS9. i totally agree that it's quite a good all-rounded string.

I used many types of strings - NG98@30 for APACS Tantrum 200, BG-65Ti@30 for APACS 9900, BG-68Ti@28 for APACS Rapier (Z-Slash), Gamma 0.64@25 for YY NS 500 and BG-66@23 for APACS ES9 & Cab 8.

I find that NG-98 got great repulsion but it feels detached. BG-65Ti fits 9900 like a glove as it tough enough for smashes (9900 good for smashes). BG-68Ti is brilliant for APACS Rapier but should go for a lower 26 lbs to increase repulsion. My Nanospeed 500 is head-heavy hence it's a mistake to go for thin gauge strings at such a low tension. As for APACS ES9 and Cab 8, I don't use much, so not much comments.

usually goes for NG-98/BG-68Ti/BG-65Ti for my other rackets

have you tried babolat badminton racket? i saw them at Decathlon some time back and liked the feel?

**ramankwatra** · 05-25-2010, 04:36 AM

What other brands are available with Chris? Does he sell Babolat or Gosen? if not, does anybody know where to buy these two brands?

I have but not the High end ones. In France, Decathlon does not carry the X-Feel models. The only way to get them is via the internet or on tournaments. What I can say is that it is very popular in France.

Just to let you guys know that stocks of SH8600D have arrived at the warehouse 2 days ago along with the Korean Thomas/Uber Cup jerseys. The SH8600D cost S$120 but the prices for the jerseys have not been confirmed yet. The SH8600 ACE did not arrive in this shipment.

There are various clearance items available eg. shoes (S$20-60), apparels (t-shirts S$10, collar t-shirts S$15) etc. Odd sizes only. The new/current items (eg. bags, apparels, rackets, shoes, grips, strings etc) are neatly displayed on the racks.

Its a pity the showroom is only open from Mondays to Fridays 9am to 4pm.

Thanks for the information, I have been waiting for the SH8600 series shoes to arrive here in Singapore. Other than the colour scheme for the SH8600D and SH8600ACE, is there any difference in the material use?

**xiaoxia** · 06-14-2010, 07:21 PM

Just wanted to know if there is any suitable Victor racket for me. My budjet is around RM 100-200 (SGD43-SGD86).

FYI,
"Blk 724 , Ang Mo Kio outlet will be closed from 14 June 2010 till 18 June 2010. Business as usual at Jalan Pemimpin Showroom. Sorry for the inconvenience caused."

Balance: 283-290mm
All carbon graphite slim shaft

the range of the balance is so big... hmmm

Hi Chris,

Just to check if your shop only accept cash? Do you accept nets?

**petertan_sg** · 06-19-2010, 01:47 AM

Hi Chris,

I think it's time to install a NETS machine at your place. By having a NETS machine, it makes it easier for people to BUY MORE stuffs because they are not restricted by how much cash they have in their wallet.

Hi Chris,

I agree with petertan_sg as it is alot more convenient for customers to pay by nets and they will tend to spend more

**huangxl** · 06-19-2010, 09:31 AM

With credit card even better as they do not need to wait for pay day. Or like electronic 12 months instalment scheme. I might buy whole series myself so my wife won notice how much i spent. :P

**-Silver-** · 06-19-2010, 09:44 AM

I hope they have the nets machine as well as extending their working time to slightly longer.

**petertan_sg** · 06-19-2010, 12:10 PM

Yep... But I think Chris & Elaine probably need to start to "corporatize" their operation.

**h208217** · 06-20-2010, 06:06 AM

For those who see this thread, probably can assist to request for nets & credit card payment.
Or they can buy a better cashier register with their goods stated with brand name, as for my scenario i can use the receipt to claim
