Yonex have been working on a new Armortec racket. However, there have been problems and they are still not happy with results.
Initially, Yonex wanted the new racket for launch at All Englands this year, but now they're back to testing with the hope they can it it right for Japan Open.
From what I understand, they are trying to combine a number of best selling features such as
head heavy, extra long shaft and air resistance of Z Slash. But, it's not perfected yet so I guess we'll just have to wait.
I'm a great fan of Armortec rackets and would love to see another included in the range.
As the Arcsaber series has been increased again, it's only a matter of time before a new range emerges, and either Nano series or Armortec or Muscle Power is no more.
To your success
