Here is just some simple review and photo of Fleet Woven Ti 3000 ( Ti 888 ), 2012 model racket from Fleet. The following information is gathered from other website: Spec Frame: Woven + Carbon + Titanium Frame Design: Octagon Frame, which improving areodynamic drag. It can decrease aerodynamic drag from any degree, means that normal Low Aerodynamic Drag (LAD) design only for direct swing, but octagon frame design can do it from any degree. Shaft: Nano carbon Shaft Design: 40T + 7.0mm slim shaft Weight: 4U (86gm +/- 2gm) Balance: 285-290mm Recommend Tension: 20-30lbs ( Strung with Bg 66 Um 28lbs ) Max Tension: 50lbs Holes: 80 Holes Shaft Stiffness: Stiff Here is my personal view about this racket:- This racket should be the remodelling from Woven Ti 888 which is not marketed in Malaysia. The spec and appearance of this racket is similar to Woven Ti 888 which i found some picture from other thread in this forum http://www.badmintoncentral.com/forums/showthread.php/98497-Victor-MX-80-vs-Fleet-Woven-Ti-888 First impression of this racket Paintwork & finishing : Excellent.I like the frame with carbon fiber waving which is look different from other brand except Froza.Forza did do the same job on their high end racket. The shaft of this racket is slightly shorter 2-3mm compared to my yonex,rsl,li ning, victor, forza and oliver racket. This is a heavy head and light racket. I just bought this racket and haven't try it yet,therefore i can't make any comparison and comment now. i'm just an intermediate player which like to test different brand and type of racket which make my pocket burn :crying:.... p/s : this is just my personal opinion.
This is funny, because I have a Ti-888 and the color look same as the one u are talking about which is the Ti-3000
ti 3000 is for Malaysia market, ti 888 is for Taiwan market. now ti888 was discontinued and replaced by a new racket called woven 8000.
wanna try woven series...so far fleet model have good review....how much bro???still waiting for panda woven series...
Tested this racket today.Played on my warm up session and I can feel this racket is comfortable. After a few game playing doubles, I feel this racket is comfortable to maneuver. For defense,this racket is naturally quick on the get go.With a quick flick of wrist can send the shuttle back end of the court,and I found myself sometime throwing the angles a little too much. The weight in the head can be slightly be felt when swinging it. Receiving smashes with this racket is a breeze.The lightweight of this racket allowed quicker response from my wrist to lift and return back the shuttle faster to my opponent before their second attempt to smash.Backcourt clearing were easy,even when I'm out of position and have to force a clear at lower angle.With the heavy head and stiff shaft of this racket, which is good in smashing. I was surprise with the speed of my smash,which I can see my opponent trying hard to return back the shuttle.I didn't play much dropshot and net play during the game,only thing is I might need to take better control of my wrist in future game because I seen myself hit the shuttle off the sides a little too much. That's all I can comment.This just my thought and opinion about my newly bought racket.
