Survived 2 smash clashes at the same location but finally succumbed after a re-string and mishit of the bird directly on the damaged spot. Both clashes were the same, I was moving back to intercept assuming my partner was too wide and too slow after his last hit. I guess he was faster than I thought. Both times he comes in for a leaping smash. I covered the area each time with clear nail polish. I got the racket restrung and re-gripped and the first session after a mishit this happened. The racket felt really "vibrationy" after the re-string, something was definately already wrong.
It's a shame, but I see you already have a Trinity Pro to take its place (how about posting a comparison in the Panda Power thread?) Out of interest, why did you cover the area with nail polish?
I have a TPro, but I can't justly give any sort of comparison for a couple of reasons. 1) I got the racket straight from DinkALot with 27 lbs of Zm70. I normally play at 22-23lbs with Zm67. 2) The overgrip under the Nano60 on it doesn't match what I normally use. Because of those 2 points the TPro felt really sluggish and out of control. The roughness of paint chips bug me. I covered the damaged areas with nail polish to smooth over the spot. After the first major clash it actually gave me a "graphite sliver" when I ran my finger over the damage. The 2nd time it got clashed on the same spot a chunk of nail polish and more T2 disappeared. The other damaged spot above was from yet another clash.
