Definitely. The 1-digit Voltrics are awfully slow. Playtested a friend's (IIRC VT5) and it felt like swinging around an iron pipe...
Well, a BS11 is pretty easy to play with. Head heaviest of the 2-digit BS, and pretty manageable stiffness. BS168 might be worth looking into as well....afaik LHI's racket, and essentially a slightly more head heavy BS11. A MX60 would probably also be a good choice.

In any case, every BS or MX racket will be a vast improvement in speed over any Voltric.

ok good to know, if an MX is more forgiving to off center hits then that might be my best option.

While some have mentioned the 80 holes design plays ~1lbs tighter than a regular string pattern I have not noticed anything like that.

To be honest I think it's just because you pretty much have to start crosses at B8 because of those extra holes and those people are used to racquets starting at B9

I really didnt see any difference either...

At the moment Victor is boring me. So much new rackets with almost the same specs. An At700 racket which is 5/5 stiff and 5/5 headheavy would be something new.
Victor why couldn't you make you one with Sword, Carbon XT, 80 holes and E-titanium? This would blast your opponents away.

I would agree with j4ckie in recommending the BS11 or MX60 based on the info you have provided.

I kinda agree with this. Everything Victor has put out recently has basically been a 300mm BP all-rounder, of various levels of stiffness. They're content with leveraging the LYD and JJS models and these are huge sellers, so there's no real impetus to do anything particularly different or interesting or experimental.

I still pretty much think that the Bravesword is one of the best racket designs conceived thusfar. Adding a Woven head and upping the BP would be where I'd take Victor, but they have some very expensive star players they need to leverage, as well as investment in differentiating the Meteor line with Woven.

I don't think we'll see much in the way of interesting from Victor for quite some time.

I am going the other way round. I owned SW35, MX80, MX70, SW37 and BS12 before. Just like your case, I sold them off. Now, thinking which Yonex rackets to try.

Dang! You guys should just meet somewhere in the middle like Johore Bahru and do some rackets exchange!
