    Anybody else besides me feels that a bit of the Armortec 700 LTD colors have been thrown into this?

    I've been waiting for a legendary racket from yonex since the nanoray 900 and the zf ii. Hope this turns out to be a powerful force!

    Really Yonex, another LD signature racket? What's that, the fourth?

    well this racket doesn't seem to be the same racket as the zf ii. Nanometric is labelled on the racket, which zf ii does not have.

    Last chance for YY to milk the cow with LD. He will retire after the OG.

    Lies, LD has stated numerous times in chinese he's not retiring. His goal is to be able to participate in 2020 olympic games. He could be playing a lot less after the olympics, but he's not retiring.

    The racket sounds a strange combination of a nanoray and a voltric, will have to hear reviews first!

    To me it's pretty logic. He is 32. At this age alot people think about children, if they don't have. I think he let this option open, because nobody knows if he get 2016 the 3rd times Gold. Sorry to say, but somebody like LD is not a person who fade out like Taufik.

    even if this is a new racket by YY, i think LD will be using a repainted version of whichever racket he has been using, like how LCW is using ZF1 rather than D10 mentioned in the D10 thead

    Man it does have a few characteristics of arczs on the paint scheme especially around the frame area.

    "Larger face size than z force 2" So I take it it's normal isometric and not semi ISO? I'm surprised. I thought the small head trend was here to stay for a while.
