    [MENTION=31921]Ferrerkiko[/MENTION]: Have you tested their stuff? If not, you're welcome to not judge...
    [MENTION=57143]visor[/MENTION]: Agree with you 100%. Axelsen didn't have the success they hoped for yet and their other players are rarely seen in the late stages as well. They need someone who can get to SS quarter finals regularly...

    Yeah, they're going for the younger generation, sometimes previous world junior champions. These kids aren't likely going to be, world champions anytime soon, at least not until they have matured. Sure Adidas can wait 5 years, but there really isn't a point if they can make a move to popularize their badminton equipment now.

    If it is Adidas' strategy, then they failed to pursue ratchanok intanon... :p

    I would love to use Adidas racket if the balance point got more than 300.

    I think some in the precision series are floating around that point. My adipower pro was around 297 before I put an overgrip on it but after stringing.

    Takuma Ueda does an even better advertising job for them than Axelsen, i guess. Well at least it was when i watched his match against Tago in Japan Championships that i remembered about the adipower pro and that a couple of our local retailers got a hold of it at a reasonable price. So i went to check it out and walked out with one in the bag eventually. And now it's one of my favourite rackets.

    Of course he didnt. Did anyone see what Viktor Axelsen was wearing/using during the Korea Open (ans Msia Open if he plays that)? The shirt reminded me of another one, not adidas, but the video quality was so horrible that I couldnt make out any details whatsoever...

    Does anyone know what Boonsak's current racket is? It used to be the mostly white BLX Zone, but in the last tournament is was black.

    Ma Jin seems to be using N50-III - I observed that in the first set of the XD Final match at the Malaysia Open.

    Really? :) I wasn't there. I just observed that while watching her virtually on youtube :D
    But hopefully I will get at least one chance in my life to take a photo with her! :p

    From the screenshot, I can vaguely see the word "FORCE".
    Perhaps it is the 2014 colour version of the BLX Force.
    I'm very curious too! :D
