so here are my attempt at the photo. the glossy black surface with underlaying texture is super hard to show. only one of the pic managed to reveal the full glory. the shaft is a shaded purple and then it fades into the clear of the frame. very subtle and needs to be held on your hand to fully appreciate the subtleness.
Yay, photos! Thanks Kwun. The second and last pics kind of show the marbled effect, and I don't think it was ever going to be visible except in closeups. @PospsiclePete: It's definitely been mentioned that the factory grips are very low quality (by me if noone else). Essentially, it's just another case of Dinkalot saving money on the stuff that doesn't matter (everyone uses over/replacement grip), so that he can offer a product that still performs brilliantly, but for the lowest possible price. That's also why you get a cloth bag rather than a full thermo, why the rackets aren't factory strung, and why the graphics aren't designed by a professional. Now having said that, the factory grip on the Precision is much better. It's softer and tackier, and imprinted with the DC logo, which is kind of neat.
Hey Sketch I'm sure someone would have mentioned it in the past, but like I said, I've only read to page, well 35 now. It does make perfect sense for Dan to do what he's doing. It's the whole concept behind the racquet, keep the cost low by stripping the excess. Thanks for the heads up thought
Hi all, Just and update for all Canadian members, I have received my Ultra Pro shipment and have a few pieces available. Pls email me with any questions: mjstrings<at>yahoo<dot>com. Note: currently experiencing issues with my website. Thanks, MJ.
Thanks again MJ for the two racquets on Tuesday...LOVING the ultra 2...will probably be by after new years for the Pro...when do you expect chao pai shuttles to get in?
The cost of the racket is the same with or without graphics on the frame. Rather, the focus was better overall performance and durability (of the grommets).
Gotcha...yeah the grommets do look might powerful! Would you say the grommets from mbs are equally as good when time comes to replace them?
Which would be a better performing Racket, the Revelation or the Trinity Pro? In the dcbadminton website, the Trinity 2 (which I assume to have a performance near the TPro) and the Revelation are both "all-around attacking rackets".
There are a couple of Ultra 2 reviews here: http://www.dcbadminton.net/ultra2.htm If you mean Ultra Pro (the racket in Kwun's photos), then no, there aren't any reviews yet.
oops, yeah i ment the ultra pro >.< meh, okayy just gotta check the price @ MJstrings or whatever and if its decent enough ima buy it
Panda Power looks awesome but the price is kinda expensive(if I'm not mistaken the Ultra is around RM200-RM300). Only I could get a RM100 discount...
Even for that price range, it is a worthy buy - provided the racket suits you. And no, I don't have any Panda Power rackets. Justin.
Well, I have a Yonex racquet now with me, left by my father. It's black, oval-shaped head, and light-head too. But I'm not sure what model it is and I've been searching for it in the internet, but no dice. I love this racquet and it's a memory of my and my father. Ah well, we're getting off-topic now.
