Hello everyone. This is the first thread i am creating in the forums. I have viewed topics regarding Ti10 and its credibility in performance. I am actually living in singapore right now and would like to purchase a victor brand racket. Is there anyone who is familiar with victor rackets kindly advise on which model would most symbolise yonex Ti10's feature?
Hi and welcome to BC! Regarding your question, I think you should specify which Ti10 you are referring to. There are 3 generations and they vary from each other.
Ti10 (2nd gen) might similar to Victor BS08. Feature head heavy balance, long shaft, short handler. The only thing is BS08 racket is having thinker profile than ti10 2nd gen.
May i know which generation has the most flexible shaft? And if whether the pricing for yonex would be more expensive over the victor rackets.
i think after plying with all three generations, the 3rd gen is the most flexible out of the 3 generations, and it's more maneuverable because of the head-light property.
I am getting confused with some people saying TI-10 is head light as per stated on the shaft. But others (Including DinkALot) says it is head heavy. I just recently bought TI-10 3rd gen. I haven't string it yet but I feel it is head light (similar to Nanospeeds series) and stiff shaft. Are there 2 specs of TI-10's? What do you guys think?
shaft-flexibility and head-weight is is two different things.. i dont think i used head-light and shaft is not too stiff together.
head heavy o light also depends on your grip... smaller grip will make head heavy ti10... & vice versa
I know they are two different things. TI-10 is stiff for sure. For me personally, it is head light. I'm just puzzled that some people says the racket is head heavy.
I guess it's because of the long shaft and short grip design which generates a lot of swing speed and hence more inertia. So it feels head heavy although the balance is more to head-light (especially so for 2nd Gen but not too much for 3rd Gen).
Agree with Aeolus. My 2nd I measured at ~285 (bare/no string, no overgrip) yet it feels on par or slightly more headheavy than for example Apacs AMP90 @ ~293 (bare/no string, no overgrip). According to the dinkalots racquet chart 2nd gen is also the most flexible ... Current prices you should be able to find in here: http://www.badmintoncentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=15401
