Yonex new product voltric 70

Thought this suppose to be Yonex's TOP secret ? Shhhhhhhhhhh
Nah ....can only wait for our BC paparazis ...

 

BG66M came out already in Japan. I tried it for 10mins and it broke -.-

 

BG66M in 100 and 200 metres reels to be exact.

SHBSC5WM is supposed to be a successor to the top grade cushioning of the SHB200WM (which the later is also rumored to be continued in production despite having already been out for 2 years plus since September 2008).

By the way the Voltric 70 has been rumored to be sporting the same trademark black and red colour scheme of 1st gen AT700 and AT900P. The standard spec is 4UG4, compared to the Armortecs' 3UG4. This is going to be one sweet racquet

 

what happened? what racket u strung on and on what tension?

 

wow ,.. hopefully there will be pictures soon ..

 

So will it be a brand new range? or will it fall under NS, Arc, AT?

 

Out with the old, in with the new ... Armortec 1000 (hmmm will these "" come back to haunt me )

Sounds cheap though "Voltric" ... 5DX I had heard about ... Arc9FL and F, hmmm For Ladieboys & Females?

 

If the 5DX is just a 5 with the 2+4 pattern I will be VERY annoyed - what a cheap and cynnical ploy that would be.

This Voltric may well be the intended Armortec replacement - I heard from... a source that they were unhappy with the graphite during the testing phase, but apparently they have sorted it. If it IS a 300+/X-Stiff basher I would welcome it: the AT range has been neglected for a long time now.

 

2007 to be exact Mark. It is going to have to be no less than excellent, to displace my SW35, until then, the order of the 3rd SW35, is on hold.

 

I translated an Indonesian Badminton website (Google translator or course) and a Voltric 70 thread indicated that the VT70 is along the Armortec side of things but made wth "the very latest" in material advancements.

Very exciting in my opinion as the Armortec line has certianly been neglected the past couple of years.

 

tckang,

VT70 sounds like motobike engine.

yonex if your listening I would like:

Head heavy (BP295-305) stiff-Xstiff, (like SW35) and at least as powerful as SW35
Thanks

 

Voltric sounds... o-o nothing like what Yonex would make up for a name . so far its been.. Musclepower, Armortec,Nanospeed,Arcsaber,Carbonex,Isometric..

*hey i just noticed every of their names has the letter "E" in them
in my opinion Voltric sounds pretty lame

 

Just in case everyone is still wondering, the name "Voltric" is really just [VOLTage + elecTRIC]

I have been reading around the Chinese badminton forums and to confirm quite a lot of speculations, this racquet IS INDEED going to be a successor for the Armortec series (not sure if the Armortec series will be discontinued though). And what better style than to have the racquet look like the old AT700 and AT900P with the same ultra head heavy, ultra light weight, extra stiff specs PLUS new aerodynamic profile (of Z Slash, Ti10 etc)? There's also reports saying that the shaft will incorporate a new design (some are speculating a Ti Mesh covered shaft ).

On a side note, someone pointed out that the first in the recent Yonex racquets series are all named "seven", for instance Armortec 700, Nanospeed 7000, Arcsaber 7. Although IMHO only the AT700 outperformed the others in the series compared to the other "sevens".

 

5% more power! BP ~295ish perhaps (lower than 900P apparently). Anyone registered at AT700.com by any chance?

 

I heard also it will be painted in shiny color, by that i mean golden chrome

 

Any leaked pics to show yet?

 

Sounds quite a lot like an RSL X2 gold!
