    Got myself an AVP after the DZS cracked. See it as more of a, being at the right place at the right time scenario than anything else.

    Curiosity got the better of me. Will plop down a review myself when I can. So far it seems quite nice in play.

    AVP is a much faster racket IMO

    Yeah man. I have a 3u ZFII and an N55 arriving on 17th so I thought I’d give this a shot. Always read about it loads.

    It’s faster alright. Weird switching back to my g6 grips again after using the g4 on DZS / NS9900 etc for awhile.

    Quite a joy using AVP for fast exchanges. The frame's solid and quite surprisingly heavy enough to push the birdie aggressively towards the opponent without losing the quickness needed. Not to mention the fact that it now goes on sale so temptingly low from yosin sports malaysia. RM135 ONLY

    Well he didn't say they won because of their rackets, but he just said about those rackets being in action

    Spec is not only about 3U/4U, stiffness, or balance point.
    There is also
    frame type (box, aero, hexa, diamond, etc)
    material usage
    Technology/characteristic applied (ex: voltric trivoltage, Thruster K catapult structure, Astrox 88D where where half part of the frame is flex while 88S frame flex part is on the lower area near the t joint)

    1 thing that didnt mention in the official site is their technology used on the racket.
    But why would bother any of it? If you feel good on dry swing, then look for its stiffness. If the stiffness is the same with our old racket then it will feel good to play. Afterall its not the racket that makes us good but its our own skill that makes us good (i could say 90% skill & 10% racket).

    Give me a cheap $20 racket & give someone who barely ever touch a racket Astrox88D & im sure i can beat him easily.

    Then this is the reason i hate racket outside the trio brand (Yonex, Lining, Victor). Not because i hate the brand nor im a fans of the trio but the other brand dont have good categorize on their product. Its like they made alot of good racket & put cool name on each of it.

    If you can only have one which one do you choose Assailant Pro or Commander? Are they equally good for playing doubles: front player -- light enough to play in net & back-player -- stiff enough to generate power and smash from the back.

    Hardly able to tell which one as:
    1. I dont own both or any of it to tell the story.
    2. Its something personal preference. Something felt good for me doesnt always good for other. I love my racket yet some of my friend dislike it & same does they like their racket yet i dislike theirs.
    3. Havent try dry swing it to feel the racket.
