    Hi everyone. Would be interested to get ashaway phantom x speed. Does anyone know where to get in malaysia esp online? Nikman sports had ran out of x speed unfortunately n this brand hasn't really come to local stores. Though nikman still has phantom superlight n edge. Not sure how these performances are since can't find their reviews online.

    The superlight and edge are new models. Get Nikman to order for you or buy a used one, he has friends that may sell it.

    Hi guys I have been using arc 10 for past 4 yrs...
    I broke my racquet recently during a play...
    Since am on a tighter budget now...
    So I request you guys to suggest me a cheap alternative...

    Preferences :
    Even balanced or slightly head heavy
    3u(88+-2)
    Stiffness : between medium stiff to stiff (somewhere btw)
    Tension : the racquet should be capable ofholding 27*29
    Control should be immense

    They may come under a different name in the UK, so it maybe a Viper XT instead of the Palladium

    Hi
    The Ashaway phantom X speed sounds like the perfect racquet for you. Quite expensive though

    Just bought a Phantom X-Fire from Nikman Sports yesterday. They ran out of X-Speed so i settled for the X-speed. Totally in awe and satisfied with power delivery and shot accuracy. Very solidly built and love the fiery orange design. Fully recommended. I have posted my review on another thread here.

    Hi I got Phantom X-Speed. I think x-fire has same story. If you look at racket head I have feeling (at least compared to Yonex ISO rackets), it has too much space between last cross string and top of frame and if you miss hit on that weak no string spot string will break for sure. So please how to solve this because I'm sure I wasted 2 strings of 4 because of that. Should I get longer grommets stretching all the way to cross string or what? What gromet diameter does Ashaway have for central main strings near center if I want to find alternative? Do you have any other suggestion how to protect that spot?

    many thanks please help

    Don't hit up there. Sticking to the sweetspot helps

    Hi everyone here in Ashaway fan club ,
    My question is about phantom X Speed 2 , how is this racket different from its predecessor X Speed .
    Has any one tried with both the rackets.
    I am a bit confused from selecting among them.
    I am an intermediate doubles player , seeking for an all round racket with powerful smashes.
    Any suggestions are welcomed.
    Thanks

    There's a Phantom Helix and a Phantom Shadow being released too, I have a picture but I'm not sure if I can post it yet.
