    The stocks arrived in Sports Life on Friday but I only manage to see it today. They must have arrived in the warehouse much earlier then for distribution region wide. Should be in the stores in Malaysia, Indonesia and Hong Kong by now too.

    This specimen is 3UG5 and also available in G4. SP codes are only available in 3U. 4UG4 and 5 available and can be ordered from Japan.

    Racquet feels light and not that head heavy to me as stated in the shaft.

    ara, how much is the listed price in sports life?

    A little bit out of topic question, is the shirt beside VT70 on your first picture supposed to be worn by guy or girl? I think that model supposed to be sleeveless, but on that pict, it seems that it is sleeved.
    Where is Sports Life's location?

    Thanks

    Any chance you will parallel import the either the JP or TW code racquets ;)? I am interested in either codes in 3UG5.

    Seems like this will replace the Armortec series soon.

    :confused::confused: VERY unlikely. According to most opinion, this is a mid-level racket aimed at Intermediate players.

    The Voltric 70 cost S$249 at Sportslink, Queensway with factory string. Didnt check the other stores for prices but I believe the prices at the other stores would be more competitive. Must say the racquet has a very thin frame profile.

    I just had a swing at the racquet today and realised it is stiff. It reminds me a bit of Victor SW35. The SW35 is stiffer probably but I held the SW35 quite some time back so I can't be totally sure. It is definitely not as head heavy compared to the Armortec series.

    I had it shown for comparison with AT900PLC, ARC10PG. Top to bottom VT70, AT900PLC, ARC10PG.

    A unique minor feature to the VT70 is the 'tri-voltage' logo together with the 'YY' logo are stamped on the entire black leather grip.

    This racquet not bad, played briefly with it. Felt like AT900 series with less drag.
