    This is a curve ball that comes right back at the pitcher. 3U super stiff even balance to 4U super flex head heavy?

    Hendra took the photographer's instruction of "chest up, chin down" too seriously....

    How good are the wave fang series in terms of all round cushioning?

    I have the Wave Fang Pro and I would say it's very minimal. I'm a smaller lighter player so shoe cushioning doesn't have to work hard for me. The wave technology I would say works pretty well, I didn't feel like my heel bottomed out the shoe or send a shock up my leg.

    Selling point of Mizuno is they are lightweight, excellent ventilation and very grippy outsole, in term of cushion is okay only for me, nothing bad and nothing best haha. Been using Wave Fang XT3 for 3 months now and very happy with it.. IMO I find it much better than Yonex 03Z personally which I sold it after I bought my XT3...

    I might give one of the wave fangs a try. I have quite a problem with my feet that's why I need max cushioning. I wanted the kind of comfort I get from the skechers go walk

    Hock Eng seksyen 15 bandar baru bangi is the cheapest in klang valley, based on my experience.
    On top of that, you can bargain and ask for discount, the shop owner also very friendly and helpful.

    On that note, I wonder if any of our Hong Kong friends can help me out with this inquiry.

    I have been told of a sports shop in Hong Kong which apparently sells Yonex Astrox 99 racquets at a very reasonable price which is substantially less than in England. Its address is :

    龍騰球拍 Lung Tang Sports
    4/F., 新輝大厦, 亞皆老街48号, 旺角, 九龍, 香港
    4/F., Sun Fai Bldg., 48 Argyle St., Mongkok,
    Kln., Hong Kong.

    Has anyone bought from this shop and are they trustworthy?

    I have been putting off buying this racquet which is favoured by Kento-san but when I heard of this place I thought I might inquire prior to placing my order from here in England.

    Thanks in advance.

    Why not ask Poison Cobra on youtube?

    With all due respect, I think it is better for me to ask someone on here who can vouch for what Poison Cobra says online.

    Of course, he appears to be speaking honestly but it is always better to receive verification from independent sources who have nothing to gain from providing feedback to fellow forum members, don't you think?

    Haven't dealt with Lung Tang, but many of us on BC and myself included have dealt easily with racquetforce.com, e78.us and mybadmintonstore.com. Their prices are pretty competitive and comparable once you factor in the shipping etc.
