    I created a thread about it, you can have a look at it here: Victor Thruster 烎 (TK-烎) :)
    @razorei I look forward to your experience with the TK-Yin too! Hope you post to the dedicated thread I linked above so it doesn't get buried here ;)

    @razorei
    Victor hoping for us to do their marketing works haha. Most players believes reviews then brochures.

    Its all in here, BC the best reviews you can find.

    Hi is the Auraspeed90s considered headlight stiff or slightly head heavy and stiff?

    How do you guys compare this to Voltric 70 3U original, Arcsaber 11, JS10,JS11 in terms of speed, power, HH, flex.

    Sounds like its similar to blue BS12 much stiffer like the BS12N?

    I've just concerns on power from the back of the court as looking for something much improved then just little from the BS12 blue.

    Victors marketing on new range is not that great.

    Can anyone share the updated racket chart for Victor's new range of rackets?

    Take a look at post #263 and #264, you can get a lot of ideas of how this AuraSpeed 90S really is. I see no point if questions are asking all over again and again when there already such useful info posted just few pages above. :confused:

    ....
    Imo, Auraspeed 90S is a Bs12 basicly. They just tweak the frame so it can bend, whiping effects they called it. To do this whiping effect, the shaft must be stiff enough so the frame bend more instead of the shaft like regular rackets.

    There is an upgrade for power but not that much. Its like 7 to 8 in a scale of 10 imo. But whats amazing is your smash steepness. That feature can do a lot of damage.

    Those racket you mention are more powerfull than auraspeed90s; imo, Ars90s is more to defensive, speed and control.

    Is it bad that I don't feel the whipping effect working for me? Just the power upgrade

    Yes sounds possibly closer to the Nanoray 900 with the steepness and lighter head. Do you recommend more power to go with the Auraspeed 80x instead.

    Just trying to understand what is replacing the meteor series in Victor now?

    Whutttt??? Impossible...hahaha
    Well..maybe you can ask a friend to record a video just to see the steepness change. Its easier for me because my club always make videos of our game; mainly for jokes and fun in the whatsapp group later hahahaha

    I have never believed such gimmicks tbh. To me getting the steep shot is all pure skill with some occasional luck thrown in. As long as I'm prepared and behind the shuttle quick enough, I can play any shot I choose.

    Well..if you have a strong hand and smashes better go for ars-80x. Me, i’m more to half smash than full smash. I’m 39 so full smash will drain my energy...hehe. Half court then i go for a full smash...around 140kmph speed like highway speed...hahaha

    Or..your smash already steep enough. Anymore steepness, shuttle will hanging on the net. Haha; Try, do a lot of cross court smashes on the side line. Maybe you will notice something differents.

    Hmm that's another problem.. I don't have issues doing that either.. That's actually one of my better shots..
    @Gomit you're up mate. You seem to have read and experienced more about it.

    If you guys keep pushing that "steepness comes from the racket" nonsense just a little bit further, there's a good chance we will see another appearance of a raging "The Incredible @j4ckie". :D

    Here's some CCTV footage from the last time it happened:
