wow, good to hear that kason still producing rackets. Hopefully it plays well like the TSF 300 A/D series
from the sounds of it, it looks like they made the TSF500 as a aero frame to cut through air more swiftly. Hopefully this is one of the racket to look out for in 2010.
-Silver-, my 300D is also an aero frame and looks exactly like the new 500. I'm possibly the biggest Kason fan on the forum , so I'd like to know the technical spec.s of the new rackets (red and blue - one defence, one attack, like TSF300's before ?). Stiffness, head heavy/light, BP ?? Sealman can you help ? Maybe they've stiffened up the shaft a bit more - it would then challenge the NS9900 and PP T2. If so, I'm REALLY interested . Kason make such pretty rackets too !
I also have SW32 - SW35 too head heavy for me. But I am deeply in love with my 300D (don't tell my wife) . Victor and Kason - darn fine rackets.
According to the Chinese websites, both the red and blue versions have the same specs: Series: Speed Model No: TSF500 Material: Carbon Fiber Grip Size: NG5 Weight: 3U Balance Point: 297.5mm Stringing Tension: Main 24-28lbs, Cross 26-30lbs Retail Price: RMB 1580 http://www.yoger.com.cn/product/101468.html http://www.yoger.com.cn/product/101467.html

Hmm, Looks like it's a bit too head heavy for my liking. Why don't they produce two of the 'same' racket, one head heavy and one with a balanced weight ? Just like they did with the 300A and 300D. Disappointed. It's not as if people don't like stiff, balanced rackets anymore (think 9900, T2....) now is it .
