    Well that seals it then. 2+4, wide af stringbed..... VTGZ!






    Anyway in the whole midst of Korea and Yonex, here's LYD on AX88D last week. Bit blurred, but this is one of the best moments to contrast with his partner Kim Ki Jung. Red on frame, green on shaft.

    This leaves us with two possible conclusions:

    1) That VTGZ is in fact a lot better than its image
    2) The influence of the rackets used is indeed negligible for current professionals

    Or maybe both.

    No hdmi, not interested.

    Aerus seems to be quite popular these days.

    Amazing how Sunrise got GMF right, but intanon wrong.
    As for Kevin, it was supposed to be BG80, but the latest one seems like his mains were yellow while crosses were white.

    JP Yonex is dying to move BG65TI it seems.

    Can't help you much except get a screengrab that has a pretty girl, a ice cream (paddle pop) looking racquet, and the one you were asking about.... looks energy drink-ish, if you ask me.

    Also, it has the AirStream system.
