ESL Racquets at 1/F., 50 Argyle Street, Mongkok Please call them to reserve a 2U JP version beforehand. They will only order from their supplier when it is being reserved, supply is not a problem though. Tel: 2392-0328
thanks!! Albert, you must look like a pro! I ask Maggie there for the Maxima, she said no such thing in SP stock, just JP release. She had then put her fullstop for my request and gave no hints for ordering and suggest me waiting.
Hi Michelangeli, I will never be a pro la, just some old dude very fond of this game.. BG66 Maxima is only released for the Japan market, so no SP stock. BTW, the lady there should be Mandy, and she is quite cool on the phone, and they are reluctant to answer questions on the line, especially price. Try to pay her a visit in the shop, she is quite nice in person. Cheers
I got a reply from them today. In the email they said that their price for the Arc-ZS is $164.95 (US) which is about £100 (GB). In the UK, that would still be classed as cheap but only a few pounds cheaper than some other stores so a good price but not a worryingly good price. They have both the 2U and 3U versions available.
Way cheaper It is still way cheaper than most online stores. Do note they don't provide you with racquet covers. It's extra. This should be ok since most people have those big bag anyways. However, I was told the 2U version is only available in JP code by another store.
Sunrise Singapore will have to ship them over to Malaysia but I believe they should have received it already. Probably the Malaysian side is still sorting out the stocks to distribute to the rest of the country.
One word to describe this racquet Head-heavy. But really powerful. 3UG5 Bg66 @ 25lbs. I just field tested this racquet based on the softpower of Jughead Jones and HKChua and mr. Ants. I am supporting Ants's rating except the defense Quote Ants," Feel: 9.5/10 Control: 9.5/10 Power: 10/10 Defense: 9/10 Maneuverability: 8.5/10" my rating Similar to ants except, Defense: 8/10 Lactic acid quickly build out in wrist trying to repulse smashes. I think this is Arc10 sacrificing defense for more offense. I also think it's an excellent racquet for singles and for smashers in doubles. Cheers, Happy smashing.
Arc Z Slash with Arc 10. Longer shaft, shorter handle and slightly narrower frame width for Arc Z. The retail price in Sunrise Sports Life is $339 (which is on par with Mustafa SC) instead of $449 posted a few pages back. The initial $449 tag was the official price quote for the Singapore market by Yonex Japan. Sunrise management set their official price at $339 for Sports Life which is similar to the current price for NS9900 there.
I see the site has been updated . Not that I was planning to order there anyway, will get it cheap enough right here. Although not in the $125 region , that is not do-able at the current euro-dollar exchange rate. The standard case doesn't cost extra. It's the added weight of the case that you pay extra for .
OK kids in US. Stop dreaming and open your wallets. The Arc-Z is here. Sorry, they are all taken... Also, Cab35 is delayed into US.
