    I think the 86g 287mm T2 should be fine. Not sure if it will further improve your smashes, but it should be about the same level. Defence and touch wise would improve.

    Given that you're only 72kg, go for the lighter one... 86g bp288mm is perfect for smashes and defence.

    As a matter of fact, that was what I had before I broke it in a clash 2 months ago...:crying:

    Any new updates on when the U3 may come to canada or any other racquets (genesis,revalation). So far no Trinity 2's and I kinda want another Ultra 1 just because of the color scheme.

    The T2s are scheduled to leave China late next week or so.

    Everything else is still 8+ weeks away. Panda will keep everyone posted when more concrete dates are available.

    Thanks!

    Wooo!!! The T2s are almost here!!! So glad I already called dibs on one. Did you get the across-the-board updates done? No rush, I can imagine you prepping for this next round of rackets already.

    Latest developments = waiting.

    FireFly = watched the first few episodes and could not really get into it so Panda stopped. Maybe Panda expected too much. :(

    Just wondering wat is the grip size of the Panda racquets? I was using the orginal grip + yonex supergrab and felt kinda big but now I'm using 2 point 4 overgrips with the orginal and found it perfect o.o

    This is totally off topic, but yes firefly was a good scifi series. It's not super high quality acting, but its fun and quick.

    All Panda Power rackets are G5 Yonex equivalent in grip size.
