Great review and write up none-the-less. The power rating is the only thing I disagree with, everything else seems about right!

Oh yes, i was actually scoring based on me individually, as i play mostly doubles i felt like i can smash harder (given the timing and speed of the racket and the game) using BS10. That said you are right, if I have given a smashing test i believe I can smash harder using MX80.

If i get MX80 i'll sure get it 4U and if BS12 3U should be fine.

IMO coming from VT80 to BS12 will be a bit of adjustment, maybe MX80 will suit you better and you can adjust quicker.

But Yonex Armotec and Voltric series are even head heavier with BP 300 mm ++
AT900P BP 307 mm
VT80 BP 305 mm
VT70 BP 303 mm

There you go Maklike Tier, thats your answer. Thanks jump-smash.

Honestly I've totally no idea which one I should start with. I might just close my eyes and reach into the box lol

opss..he is coming from carlton ??? mid flex as well....so, BS12 is not an issue to adapt imo

seriously.....

**avengers88** · 05-03-2011, 11:08 PM

Yeah I was using carlton mid flex previously. Only manage to use the Voltric80 bout few weeks. Might need more time to adapt. Now planning to get a backup racquet so BS12 might be a good choice if i plan to keep Voltric80. Or else I'll just sell Voltric80 and get BS12 and MX80 whatcha think?
HAHA !

HAHA !

If you can, try first before you buy

**avengers88** · 05-03-2011, 11:10 PM

Yeah but not many people at my place uses victor racquet. Mostly yonex or the mid range racquets only. I'll try to find people that has it to test it out

My Mx 80 is 4UG2, this racket is easy to handle. I can smash on the first hit. This rackets gives me some additional power but no that much, and it feels LIGHT, this is totally crazy I've expected a heavier racket, so on drives it's really good, maybe a little less than a NS 9900 or a Ti-10 because I've missed some shots.
About the stiffness, this is pretty weird, because it doesn't feel as stiff as everybody says, my friend has told me the same "is it medium ?" xD

OK I'll let him know. But I saw that there is a best offer option as well, so perhaps he can go lower than Eric, I dont know.

MX80 isn't cose to medium stiff, it's actually very stiff. About the same stiffness as my VT80. That said, I still don't find them that stiff. As you get stronger and practise more and more, even stiffer rackets no longer feel stiff lol. When I first bought the MX80, I remember it giving me all sorts of shoulder pains lol. These days it's a walk in the park to play with.
