Hi, 90S 4U here, no issues in 10 months of playing!
Could it be a moisture problem? Or are you using any combination of (plastic) shuttles and super-hard monofilament string that creates a lot of vibration? But I guess that should break your elbow before it breaks the racket...![]()
It, and all my other racket, is strung with a regular 27lbs and on BG66 Ultimax. Heck even my 5 years old Bravesword 12 was treated the same and it goes strong 'til now.
you're monstrous dude,
haven't saw shaft broken split like that, if only a recreational player level did many powerful smash without clashes. (mostly broken at frame).
the broken shaft looks like a broken bamboo, and even a flypower racket normally much more stronger than that.
I mean some pro player like V Shem would frequently need a replacement racket during matches, if the 90S couldnt even handle my modest smashes. Im nothing close, of that im sure lol.
Exactly, I'd expect some chips and cracks on the oval frame if i mishit or clashed, not a fractured main shaft. Just looking for statistics figure of how often this happens, but still hoping that you guys wont undergo what I had.
