    Oh, if you have not tired speed 79 of black aeroplane, then you really should try it, quite nice. We have tried a few tubes of Victor Champion. Just so so, not as good as black aeroplane. ;)

    Well, if I can get them reasonably priced, I think I'll try some of the new Taiwan/HK(?) branded Victor Champion's. Black's may be better, but with durability still not being great, I'm after better value for money here. Currently in the UK, AS40's are only £1.50 more than Aeroplane Blacks, and the AS50's only £2.50 more. So if I want premium quality, Yonex might actually be a better buy. Not sure yet.

    The price difference over there is just so little. Pls let me know about the Victor Champions after you test them. I tried them last year, not as good as RSL Classic( S$23-24). RSL Classic's new batch with new packing is pretty good (more lasting) and price is quite low compared with Yonex AS 40 (S$35+). Worthy to have a try. ;)

    Oh, my mistake. Not speed 79, but speed 49 which suits for our game. The speed 78 should be 48 for black Aeroplane. Don't know why got such mark for speed.

    I couldn't get a good enough price on the Victor's in the end, but got a brilliant price on RSL Classic Toruney's so went with a batch of them instead.

    AS2 should be over $20 rite? For less than $20, really hard to find a decent shuttle.....the 1 i can think of is RSL training/practice shuttles....it comes in a partial silver/red tube...bought from Gala Sports at Queensway long long time ago at $16....for $20-25, if u dun go M'sia to buy, ur best bet is Protech PT-20 (blue tube) or RSL Tourney No 1 in Singapore...if u go JB buy, then plenty of quality choices at $20-25 :)

    Honly in JB....at Taman Sentosa there...at Jalan Sutera 1 somewhere near the The Store and Lien Hoe Complex if u know where i'm talking abt...there's a wide range of good shuttles from RM$49-62 (RCL, RSL, Protech, Apacs)....personally i do find the apacs aeroflight 700 very value for money and very very good quality, even better than the premium grades of RCL, Protech :p
