I just bought a roll of Mtape and Kinesiology Tape from a distributor in Malaysia.. Looking forward to test them out. These tape are used by a lot of Badminton players such as LCW, TH and TR.. Will post pictures later today..
I have a full roll of it. Not really my real intention to have it one the racket, it is for my joints..
I used it for my jumpers knee. You hardly notice it in your movement and it does work pretty well. I'd say my jumpers knee complaint hurt 80-90% less with the tape. (Luckily for me I don't need to use it anymore, my jumpersknee is all better now) Having the tape is one thing, but applying it takes some practise
I was looking at possibly buying the Mtape, I sometimes get a reoccurrence of my knee injury, and this looks a lot better to use than the full scale knee brace that I currently have.
here is it.. http://www.muellersportsmed.com/tape.htm The place is quite hard to find though.. as it's a house!
It is at a shop not a house. Go for Bovis Medical as they are the supplier to MSN. Just google map it, thats how i found the place. I will PM you the contact number and address. (Rawtiger and George) RM 36 for the Kinesiology Tape and RM 10 for the mTape.. I cannot give a full review yet as i need a bit more testing. So far I can say, it is up to my expectations.
I actually went to the one in Brickfields.. QUITE complicated to find the place though.. it's a house.
I've been a regular tape user produced by Mcdavid, LP and Mueller for many years as to protect both of my ankles. I've been using it regularly until the skill of my tapping has improved and that makes the tapping method more effective to prevent injury. However, after > 7 years using it, economically wise, it is expensive and then i change to use an ankle brace since its more cost benefit and as effective as an ankle tape.

By the way, Bovis Medical has changed its' name and location to Primo Orthocare at Bukit Rimau near Kota Kemuninig. Just went to get a roll of M-tape for RM 13.00 and a roll of under-wrap for RM 8.00. The Muller under-wrap is a good alternative to Yonex Cushion Wrap in my opinion. Cheers.
