New Victor Racquet - The Meteor X80 ( MX80 )

**Ferrerkiko** · 01-30-2011, 09:08 AM

I was at queensway shopping ctr the other time, give a few swing at N90 II . I feel that the feeling not as good as my current N90 1st generation and also superwave 35. N90 II the stiffest and feeling of the racket just not there for me.

I hope I can see more review of Mx 80 to prove me wrong that , indeed its a good racket.

I heard that the MX80 combines the strength of BS and SW and from the technology it use, it seems to indicate that. But in reality, sometimes certain combination doesn't yield the desired effect and make end up making it worse so let's see.

Do update us on your finding, thanks bro !

You trust your coach alot eh ? His name is 2 word right ? And surname starts with "B" ?

You should ask your coach what kind of racquet you should use and the tension suitable for you and then you should listen to him.

He says use whatever tension suitable for u , he says Lin dan best weapon is N90 1st generation at tension 30.

Wow ! You are advance player like Lin Dan as your tension is 29lbs !

No wonder when I see you play, your shot is so power !

U don't need to praise me , I am just an intermediate player.

Still learning from better players like my coach , Lin dan , and other china players!

what is the diagrams trying to explain?

second diagram:
left to right: weak (i think) to strong
top to bottom: attack to control
x80 suitable for attack-oriented advance players?

Oh I see... haha oops XD....
Just amazed at the hype... seemed like a Yonex commercial

Is anyone here from China?

Looks like China has the new Victors before anyone else has. Is there anywhere reputable in China that has the MX80 and can ship internationally?

Pretty sure it'll be around the same price with the high end Victors...I highly doubt it will be much more than that (hopefully).

**SlaShEr** · 01-31-2011, 08:07 AM

Well, i found one store selling one already in china.

HERE

Not sure if these are preorders or not but the release date were stated 26th Jan...so...*shrugs*

but hey, at 954 Yuans = 91 GBP, these will definitely be around the same price as the other high end victors.
If these are legit, and they do ship overseas..definitely will be getting one.

hmm... I should try out the N90II at 30lb also ba. Then try it out with the SW35 and X80 when it out.

Lee Yong Dae seems to like and praising the MX-80 alot from what I saw in Victor's promotional video for their 2011 release racquets.

I don't understand what LYD said Aramis, im sure it'll be good stuff but could you somehow give a brief translation of what he said regarding this racket? I'm curious..
