Carbon as in Carbon Fibre? If so, is it 100%? In the future, I fully expect graphene to be common place. It's extremely light and strong. Who knows what Yonex will do with that material once it becomes economical to produce?
Just to share. VT80-PG, ARC-11 and ARC-FB stocks have arrived in Modern Sports yesterday! Both VT80-PG and ARC-11 are selling at RM 520.00 for racket only. Never bother to ask for price for ARC-FB. Accordingly to the boss, there are only 20 pieces each. So, act fast!
both have about the same balance, stiffness - arc11 may even be a little stiffer. Very similar rackets.
I am curious cause some say head lighter than arc10, shaft less stiff...any source to confirm? As iam interested to buy arc11 if is better than arc10(currently using)
well i have arc11 and held arc10 too. maybe arc10 is a liiiitle bit head-heavier. but i dont think it can make any in-game difference. Arc11 is definitly stiffer, it's as stiff as my VT80 approximately, but not as stiff as my z-force. My coach plays arc10 and he says he likes the feel of my arc11 better. But as for me, I wouldn't consider it a worthy upgrade. I have an arc7 too and bought arc11 planning to make it my all-rounder. Liked the feel of it, and the colouring too ) Strung it with BG80 at 23-25. But in-game it's just too head-light for me. Strangely had to put more effort into clears. Control by the net and defense are very good, but they are about the same good with arc7 and arc10.
I bought an Arcsaber 10 after the Arcsaber 11 came out, it seems silly as most newly released products are usually better than the previous model. Has anyone been able to do to a comparison between the two??
I have both, and let me say, the arc 11 has a much better feel, and doesnt feel as dull as the arc 10, control I feel is better on the arc 11
