bro, i need ur help i am using bs11 so may i know what would expect from mx80 in term of racket improvement? i plays double all the time... anyone who own mx80 n bs11 can better judge on my needs...
The MX80 from my very short 3 match stint with it tonight plays like an improved BS10. It seems crisper, more stable, and yet somehow manages to bring more punch to the table without sacrificing speed. It's mega stiff yet strangely doesn't play like a stiff racket. The BS12 is mildly head heavy and the TW ones at least mid-stiff. I find my BS12 after having it as my go-to for a good year just doesn't bring anything to the table these days. It's fairly quick, but not head heavy enough to drop bombs, and doesn't have the accuracy of the 10 or MX80. Bottom line - even only after 3 games with it, I can safely say from my POV that the MX80 is the best racket Victor have made. Honestly, I now don't see the point in getting anything else.
It's a stupendously excellent doubles racket! Victor, Yonex, Lining included. At least till the mx70 come out!
Very good words put on the mx80 from maklike. I just paid mine and now waiting for Eric to send in my packages. Hehe. Will review how the mx80 is treating me. I already got a great feeling it's gonna be awesome!
Thought I'd post my review from the VT80 vs MX80 thread found here. http://www.badmintoncentral.com/forums/showthread.php/95121-Yonex-VT80-vs-Victor-MX80/page11
ah yes another good comment about MX80 I can see the pattern now it really confirm what I think and many others also that MX80 is the best Victor racket (at least for now) it's fast, powerful, very stable and highly accurate what more could you ask for ???
bro, 3U or 4U? whatever it is, good choice u had made... i feel like to start play with mx80 again and again....one session play with all yonex, another session with all victor.....fair enough
I took the 4u one. I asked Eric to make sure it's ard 85g++ so I think it's gonna be good. I took the bg66um lol. Want to ensure the first touch is good and perfect lol.
Haha thanks a lot samsudd for all the guidance lol. Will make sure I leave a review here when it arrives.
yeah SW35 is just suitable for Jung Jae Sung and maybe a few of BC members but not very suitable for me and most of us TBH
Perhaps he was just asking a question out of curiosity. I'd also like to know. I've read some posts on this forum that some pros tried the MX80 and subsequently switched back to their previous racket. Doesn't sound like the sway of paid endorsements to me... You have to admit that if Lee Chong Wei used the VT80 for a few games, then ended up switching back to his AT900P, it's not exactly a good look for the VT80.
No pro's playing with it isn't saying jack. NS9900 is one of the best rackets there is and there aren't many pros out there playing with it.
Actually, pretty sure NS9900 is/was used by many pros. Anyway, I was talking more about if a pro switched back to their old racket. That doesn't sound like good "marketing" to me. It's good to know, as it means the pros obviously have a lot of say in which rackets they prefer and end up using.
It wasn't really used by the real top players except for Carsten Mogensen I think. A lot of Japanese doubles players used it and KKK/TBH used it for a while, but not very long.
