New racket being realeased by Victor, according to other BC members, it's to be realeased during Taipei Open. Specs & Pics to come...
Are the new Spira 21 and 22 the reason they have stopped making the BS10? Shame, the BS10 seems to be a great racket.
Probably not the reason why they've stop from producing the BraveSword series... Admittedly though, the Spira just has even better aerodynamics than the BS series. BS lacks aesthetical symmetry...users that otherwise love it would always comment about it's angular edges. Beats me...I take any racket that plays great! But then I love SiW series more than the BS series.
So what exact evidence do we have that the popular and well used by International sponsored players BS10 is being discontinued, aside from the fact that it's missing from one website from a country that is only just starting to import Victor?
The BS 10 has not stopped production as far as I know. If you refer to the racquet being removed from Victors UK website, that's only because they had sold out. As soon as they run out of stock, the picture is automatically removed from the website until new stocks arrive. Paul www.badminton-coach.co.uk PS My review of Spira 21 goes live on my blog today!
Thanks for clearing that up Paul. I'm amazed at how quickly people jump to conclusions based on no evidence.

NTM further commented that it is a very stable racket and suits his style of play. It is likely to be his next choice of weapon. [/FONT][/FONT]
For some reason, I'm not digging the colours of Falcon series of gear. Although its a nice change (from red...), I still love the colours of the BS10/11 and the SW35!
