Kevin, That first pic shows a large chip to the left of the crack. Previous clash? Also, did you hit the bird with the frame or string when it cracked?
at 24lb, you're well within the tolerances of Panda's claim of 40lb tension. Should be covered under warranty.
40lbs was only for the Ultra, and the warrenty tension is 35lbs for an Ultra. Precision is 28lbs warrentied if I remembered correctly yet panda strung one to 32lbs I think.
#1: No Panda Power racket is covered to 40lbs. Please check here for max tension: http://www.dcbadminton.net/products.htm A racket being able to take 40lbs. string tension and the actual warranty are two completely different things. #2: Racket breakage can be due to many factors. Some times it's not easy to determine the cause and other times there are many variables. #3: If you damage your Panda Power racket and want to file a claim, you need to contact your seller and not post here.
I have broken my fair share of Yonex rackets from striking a shuttle and I never got a new racket due to defect because it had small chips on the racket itself (MP99, MP100, AT800DE (twice)). I think it's the nature of the game and equipment. Best route is to contact seller and hope for replacement or a break on price for replacement. I didn't get any consolation for my breaks and all of them were less than 1 year of use so I just had to suck it up and buy a new racket. Anyhow back to topic... so are the T-Pro's on a boat to the Panda cave yet?
Nope the TPros are not on a boat, but they are on a plane to Panda's Cave. Panda expects them around January 30th or 31st.
That does not sound like a healthy, open, honest and equal partnership if you feel you must plot how to hide household expenditures from your lifemate. (Now, just tell me your technique so I can use it too! )
Ah the damage seems relatively similiar to mine. its a very clean "Cut". my condolences to your racket.....But oh well.... TIme to get a new one
Come on, no dilemma, just pre-order. You can be my customer of the month 2 months running (January for your order of 8 Ultra Pro's and February for your order of ?? Trinity Pro's) To all other Canadian members, I am taking pre-orders for the Trintiy Pro. Please email me if you are interested: mjstrings<at>yahoo<dot>com Thanks !
She kinda knows something is up anyway when I sold 3 of my old rackets. Her exact words were, "wow you sold all 3... HEY WAIT A MINUTE!!! ARE YOU PLANNING ON GETTING ANOTHER ONE?!!?!?" But she understands since we met through badminton (she has gone to US JR Nationals twice).
i think i speak for fidget too in saying that we're truly envious of having a spouse who shares your passion!
I saw that the revelation will use carbon nano tube and those racket has carbon nano tube on it so this must be revelation the meaning experimenting on paint is laser painting? but it seems it would be an expensive racket.. and when panda bag come out?
Let me get the expected specs from Panda First So panda are the expected specs gonna be within BP300 and 83-84g?
