    Ants tweeted something 30 seconds ago! BUT IT WASN'T THE REVIEW. Heart skipped a beat. Way to go ants.

    edit: To make the post relevant, I wonder if the racket is isometric or oval headshaped.

    What if I copy paste the review first, without twitter account, since I don't care about the contest :p? :D

    That has got to be one of the briefest reviews around.

    Could we at least get a hint as to when you're going to post? At the very least in Kuala Lumpur local time, Monday late night? Or even Tuesday morning?

    I understand the competition is supposed to be really hard to win but for those of us in different time zones, it's nearly 3am over here (California, U.S.) and staying up for chance at a racket with class/work early in the morning isn't very healthy =(.

    Erm... Arcsaber10 is stiff. But not very stiff?! :confused:

    I think there are more stiffer rackets than AS10 to compare stiffness of a racket. (VT80, MX80, Spira22, NS9900, etc.)

    Or are there any other mates here around who are thinking that AS10 is very stiff?

    You mean from this comment?

    "Pour le moment on n'a pas trop de news sur les caractéristiques de cette raquette.
    Mais comme il semblerait que Peter Gade, Lee Chong Wei, et Taufik joueront avec cette raquette, elle sera probablement équilibrée en tête et très rigide... "

    I was refering to this : "Yonex annonce ainsi tout simplement la raquette la plus rigide, et la plus lourde en tête jamais développée par la marque. Présentée comme "very stiff" (très rigide), et placée sur la grille des raquettes des Yonex au dessus de l'Arcsaber 10 en termes de raideur, la Voltric Z-Force s'annonce donc comme un modèle d'experts. " (do not know if linking to an external website is ok here)

    Quick & dirty translation : "Yonex is announcing what is simply the stiffest and head heaviest racquet developed by the brand. Presented as very stiff, and placed on the chart above the AS10 as regards stiffness, the Voltric Z-Force is so made for expert players."

    Coming up at 5am in California, that is my limit. Congrats to whoever gets the racket. And it's only 9pm over in KL. I can only hope you decide to post sometime around 9 am over in my time so I'll be awake again in 4 hours to check.

    I have a feeling that this thread will lead to mass hysteria with a lot of the members of this forum :p

    Self publicist!!! This type of spamming should be banned. We now have 3 threads about 1 racket because one man wants to give it the "big I am" for a while.

    PS. Twitter is for famous people to tell me what they had for breakfast. Not for non entities who want more followers!!!

    For any contest to be legitimate, it must not force people to become members of another organisation to participate. This is known as competition spamming. An offence I'd recommend you be banned for.

    Or, forget all what is said above and admit you're a self publicist trying to boost your own following on twitter because you're "career" as a "friend, author, speaker, entrepreneur, globetrotter and food lover" isn't going as well as planned.

    Either way, I'm not even sure you can promise what you have without breaking tax and customs laws.
