Vdz · 10-09-2002, 06:40 AM

Hi guys

I am just a new comer here but I have been reading a lot of and a lot of helpful information. Thank all of yoy
Any way I am interested in buying Ti10. I have been told that apparently it is easy to get broken. Is it true?
Thanks

It depends on the tension, i think

Vdz · 10-09-2002, 05:51 PM

So What is the maxium tension it can go? or just go by manufacturing recommend ?
Thanks again

i wouldn't try to string it to it's maximum tension since it might break with just one clash. i have my ti-10 strung at 21 lbs and i haven't broken it yet, of course i dont use it that much either.

Because I read a lot of threads saying Ti 10 is good in term of power, smash etc. On the other hand it seems very "fragile". Please correct me if I am wrong since I have not tried it before.

*kwun* · 10-09-2002, 07:11 PM

from my experience. if the Ti10 is rated as "fragile", then 90% of the other rackets in the market would be rated as "very fragile".

i am talking about the 2U, of course.

but besides that. there is no playable badminton racket that is bomb proof. those just do not exist. so imho, if you can afford it and can play well with it, by all means go for it. sooner or later, any racket will break, no matter how much you be careful. you might as well spend your energy enjoying the game instead of worrying!

By the way would you mind sharing us what tension you got on your T10. Thx

the CN/CP ones can go as high as the 30s...

but generally can go 1-2 lbs (at least) over the recommended tension given on the Yonex websites

the secret is not to clash with other people's racquet.

I agree, don't clash and it'll last longer. I use what is apparnetly a 'very 'fragile racquet, the AR-110, strung at 26lbs. 4 years and still going strnog

I tried a friend's Ti10 JP the other night strung in BG75Ti. Must be around 26 lbs.

After a few knocks, I went for a full power smash. Man, the sound was incredibly good. The racquet just swished through the air like a knife through butter......

Dunno how but my friend still returned my smash

Couldn't do the comparison with Sp version because that had different strings.

Some people say Ti 10 is head heavy...not really that bad for me.

Yes, the Ti10 JP is more powerful and stable than the Ti10 SP.

Really!! as I am going HK in next Jan and I had intention of buying SP version but now you make me think about it again. I don't mind SP version because I am not a competitive player but I like the powerful and stable of JP.

*Cheung* · 12-01-2002, 08:32 AM

For myself, I can't say JP is more powerful or stable than SP version since I didn't try one after another.
