    sorry, too lazy to read all 96pages. can someone tell me what the differences are for the colors of zfore 2 LD edition? there is yellow, white and red i believe? is it just newer version same specs?

    also it says extra stiff, how stiff is it really? (i currently use hypernano x900)

    Same specs, same everything, QC difference in batches to batches / racket to racket which becomes more prominent with widely distributed codes like SP. There is no new version, just newer batches.

    Quite stiff but doesn't feel that way due to extreme headweight. The head tends to carry itself on it's own once set into motion.

    Guys please provide me some advice:

    So I have been using this racket (4U version) for 2 months straight 6 hours every week and I play doubles all the time. Coming from Li-Ning Windstorm 78 user, I must say this is a big improvement in term of smashing and clearing the shuttle from the end to end of the court, however I notice that my swing speed is reduced a lot. This is very real especially when I am about to smash, yes this racket provides a better punch but I feel like there's more that I haven't discovered yet in term of swinging the racket and making the smash as steep as possible.

    What do you think? Any suggestion? How do I improve my swing speed with this racket and should I change to Astrox 77 because I learned that smashing with 77 is more "whippy" than the VTZF2

    thanks all

    Gym or do weights to build muscle to make up the strength difference between the different specs. Also helps if you are able to do drills to improve your technique and hitting accuracy.

    Guys, just a really quick question

    Should I be worried with this? Or is it just a paint chip? Thanks very much[​IMG][​IMG]

    Bought another zfII after sold my 3u last 2 months but 4U as backup for current go to zstrike. And BG66B came in so gave it a try. At 29lbs it actually plays nicer, better hitting sound and control, and easier smash and maybe will use this awhile for main racket

    Do you play Doubles or Singles?

    I use 4U ZF II and only play doubles with 28lbs BG66 Force. I don't really like this one, I think I will go back to BG 66 Ultimax

    I have 3U ZFII LCW version. Honestly don't find this one a very very stiff racket at all like it was advertised and reviewed, maybe due to the extra slim shaft. Dunno about you guys opinion about 3U ZFII
