    Just now i was watching Indonesia Super League from distances, i was noticing that LCW's racket is quite different in cosmetic than his usual.
    Guess What.... in the 1st set he used VT80, 2nd set going back to his beloved AT900PLC.. i saw him took out 2 rackets, and he put down the one he used in the 1st set,VT80 and take another racket beside it, AT900PLC

    or prolly he dont dare to risk it with a new racket. Maybe he needs more time to get used to the timing/feel of the new voltric. :)

    The person who posted the photo claims that these are LCW's rackets and, judging from some other posts, it seems that he runs into LCW from time to time and should be credible.

    The VT80, in terms of specs, is both stiffer and less head heavy than the AT700, but probably still more head heavy than either AT900s. I would hope that it at least improves upon the AT700; after all, VTs are supposed to be more agile ATs compromising the power side of the equation. :S
