    We do not have a distributor in India. The closest distributor would be Singapore or Malaysia. Thank you! :D

    I've been reading up on u pro and t pro to see how the Kevlar affects their popularity. Seems u pro was more popular but the upk became too stiff/rigid so the TPK is currently the favourite?
    Does panda know when he might prototype the revelation Kevlar? I think that might be worth the wait. Also now I've had 'revelation' business cards printed I can't go changing racquet can I? (Thanks again for your blessing to use this name, they look good!)

    Bear in mind: the Revelation Kevlar would be the last Panda that would ever need to be made (until graphene prices come down):D

    Yeah because panda needs MORE funky technology with which to make awesome racquets :s I think rev kev is the only one I'd pre order without a second thought.

    No clash, only normal smash :( my TPK still in perfect shape and I prefer TPK compared to Titan, it can generate much more power for smash..

    Sorry for your loss...
    But if the TPK's colour is like that, I can't wait!

    That pic puts me off the TPK, red and neon yellow doesn't appeal. I've currently got a stash of red string :(
    Does Panda thing the TPK will remain king after the next prototypes?

    It's not :rolleyes::p. Already forgotten the colour discussion?!? That is straight up lime, not neon yellow ... The China shirts are also too pale. The Adidas one I posted should be just about it, same colourway also available at Mizuno but can often show up with a green hue in pictures (http://gallery.fcb.ch/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=284365&g2_serialNumber=3) ...

    :D yes I had seen it (much improved from the original pic). The broken one is the one Panda said would not be it after all but was the colour out of the four many have picked. Then out of the blue the final decision was neon yellow which none of the prototypes/colour options were ...

    Update

    I hear from Dink that the rackets will be leaving China for the USA on Thursday, so any last-minute orders should be sent in to me ASAP.

    Mark A,

    When do you expect the merchandise to get to you, roughly?

    I am just thinking forward and considering holidays etc.

    It's looking like the end of the month now. I want to get cracking (no pun intended) myself - mine have got a date with Gosen at 32/33!
