    RSL racquets

    Does anyone still use an RSL racquet in this forum? Does the company still make racquets or still exist? My dad gave me an old RSL 4000 Aero Profile & I was wondering if there are other newer models that the company still produces.

    rsl

    thank you for your reply hhppyy. i've been searching the net for pictures of RSL's new racquet line & website, but to no avail. :( the RSL Aero 4000 I have had a one piece design. The racquet head up to its handle was made of carbon. There weren't any wood on its handle. Are the new RSL models still made in this fashion? & are they really still made in England? I included a pic of the handle to give you an idea.

    I am not sure where are these rackets made. If you've found out about it, please let me know. Thx.

    Today, I had a chance to try out three different models of RSL rackets, Millenium series. The rackets are made with a combination of graphite and titanium, they are head light models, felt like medium flex or medium stiff shafts. The rackets can take high tension stringing, recommended is up to 28lbs. though one of the rackets was strung at 30 lbs. My coach claims they are very strong, having clashed with two MP100's during a game, breaking both MP's and suffering only chips on his RSL's. They felt great, different from my current racket (YY MP55). Does anyone here have any experience regarding this racket brand? I am thinking of getting one, but would like some feedback first. Thanks!

    Sorry to be off topic.

    Have to say, u just scared all the Yonex MP users. Don't tell them where u play, and how u look like. They will all refuse to play with u, when u get the RSL rackets u metioned. :D

    Oki doki. I have MP's 99, 77, and 55. I will have to use my Cab 8 when I play with anyone using an RSL racket.

    Hmmm... seems a lot of ppl really like RSL rackets.

    Just wonder, anyone can provide some spec, pic or web sites to let us take a close look at RSL product line?

    Seems like I opened a pandora's box or something here. Honestly, can anyone out there give me a review on their RSL rackets? Too bad I left my glasses in my car when I tried them out so I was not able to read the specs, but two of the rackets are ISO heads, all are long, one is matte finished (colored like a Ti 10), the other two are finished in a transparent coat, which clearly shows the carbon graphite cloth of the shaft and head. Anyone else out there who can give me more feedback?
