4u mx70 should be around 85g, bp 295mm but plays like a 290mm due to fast frame cross section bs12, blech... have one, don't like it... too flexy and headlight, even flexier than the precision that i had in the past!
tho i find bs are too damped for me compared to mx series... i like to feel my shots to alleviate the shock, perhaps you could use a more relaxed grip upon hitting?
lol, for that, there's already a thread: http://www.badmintoncentral.com/forums/showthread.php/106745-throwing-racquet-to-recover-shot-legal?highlight=throw+racket+at+shutt%3Be
Okay, so looks like I traded my BS10 for an MX60. It better be better than the BS11 or heads will roll!!
The Braveswords are so quick, there's little point in getting a 4U. However, most of my Braveswords have been about 94-95g net, which is only just within the 3U range. Which I like What I like about buying Victors from Eric, is that if you say ask for a 85g example, that's what you get *thumbsup*.
Hey Maklike, when you say this. I was just wondering. Since right now I have a 4U VT80 and I think it is quite too heavy for me, wouldn't getting a 3U BS11 (which you guys say is much lighter) be just the same weight or even heavier than my VT80 4U, which I'm not trying to get something else heavier lolz =P
VT80 somewhat of not comparable with the most rackets available >_<" Most head heavy thing of all actual rackets - only Z-Force seems to be head heavier. So do not compare VT80 4U with 4U rackets from other brands ^^ It's really not the same. And I don't think it's too heavy for you. It's just too head heavy for you. I own a 4U SW37 and I can tell you that 4U is too light to get the power you need in singles. In doubles you may compensate it with its agility and the better smash position when your partner and you are in the attacking position. So you may consider 3U rackets from VICTOR.
It's faster coz' of the BS tech. I also feel it gives a bit control and direct powertransfer coz' of the stiffer shaft. Think I said it earlier. BS11 is my absolute favorit Victor so far. And yes, 85g is right at the top of 4U og bottom of 3U, however you like to look at it. I personally prefer wet weight right around 95g (which for me is a dry weight around 86g), and as Maklike said, buying from Eric will give you the option of getting just the right weight if he got it in stock of course.
Maklike, I didn't think you was going to pick up a mx60. I thought your next racket was going to be kason 500 first
Congratulations Then you would say the BS11 is the "better" smash beast, right? But I'm wondering: Why BS11 and not BS LYD or BS15?
I don't think the general consensus is that BS11 smashes better than SW37, probably the other way around. But for me the the speed and stiffness of the BS11 over the SW37 gives me the most upside.
