    I'm a Yonex user so apologies in advance for the lack of information. Not sure if it's a Thruster with new specs or just a paint job on a Claw to celebrate TTY but Victor Taiwan Instagram account just posted that today. TTY already posted a few images of an all white racket but here is the official post from Victor.

    90k is more head heavy then the 80x, probably also bit more stiff.

    That's a TK-FC with an Altius paint job. I'm once again stunned and speechless by Victor's creativity these days.

    Ok so you confirm it's not a new racket, just a new design. Thanks.

    Haven't had the chance to try recent Victor models. Are there any worthy successors to the BS12 out there?

    Is 90k and 90s quite similar apart that 90k slightly more stiff and slightly more head heavy. In terms of feel, are both generally the same?

    No, 90k head size a bit larger than 90s and feel bigger spot
    90k head weight is heavier and stiffer than 90s.

    No comments on the sweetspot but i5have to disagree on head size. I compared both frames on top of each other at the shop. Pretty much the same size but the 90K does seem marginally beefed up with a slightly more blunt edge.

    Maybe the string style is different
    I compare my friend 90s and 90k same 4UG5..90k frame a bit wider at bottom. when we test, 90k have a bigger sweetspot.. Than 90s

    Most likely it is the stringing end result difference. Curious at the larger sweetspot though. I find the 90S sweetspot plenty large already heh

    Does 90k have the whipping effect which the 90s have? I guess it do not have since it is stiffer than 90s.

    Different string can change racket feel
    If main and cross same 27lbs raket frame will be wider and circle than
    other one main25 and cross27 lbs.
    90k more stiffer and head heavy than 90s.

    Not what we meant. If you can defy physics and make a racket head larger by different tension results then idk what to tell you.

    Hy guys,
    Which auraspeed could be similar to the jetspeed 10 (head light, small head) ?
    Thanks.

    There is no such thing in the auraspeed range... but pros who used JS10 play mainly with auraspeed 90S

    I think 70k falls close to js10. Very stiff and head light or even balance.
    The 90s is same stiffness as js12. 90s much flexier than js10.
