    Yes its available at Abugek's Sport Shop. I believe He has the lowest price among all sellers. He is very accommodating too.

    You can message him in his Facebook account Chong Abugek or message his page Abugek's Sport Shop. He is very kind and accommodating.

    Does anyone here have both JS12 and JPX LTD? I read on the earlier page of this thread Ch1k0 wrote that BS12 is more stiff than 8.5 and I thought that 8.5 and LTD have more or less same stiffness, which makes BS12 more stiff than JPX LTD. If this is true, this might be a let-down for me since I prefer medium to medium stiff, and BS12 stiffness is already on my minimum level.

    That was wrong. BS12 is not stiff. I ever own 2 pcs, lack of power but has decent speed.

    LTD and 8.5 obviously stiffer than BS12 by 3-4 level (scale 1 to 10)

    Yes I know BS12 is not stiff, that is why I said BS12 is already on my minimum level of stiffness. I don't want racket less stiff than BS12. So it is good that LTD stiffer than BS12. Now, does anyone here has JS12? I want to know where does JPX LTD stand compared to JS12

    I ever own JS12 and can't really remember exactly but i really didn't like it. I used JS12 only for 3 hours and sold it. I only need 1 hour to fall in love with LTD.

    Cool. Thanks to you, I will get one to see if I like it or not. I don't like Yonex so never had one. My rackets are always non-Yonex. Currently I am using JS12 and BS12, but I like JS12 more. I will give JPX LTD a try.

    If you like JS12 and BS12, then JPX 8.5 may be better for you but for me, i prefer LTD.

    That might be true. While some people here say JS12 is quite head-heavy, I don't feel it head-heavy enough to be called real head-heavy racket like ZF-II or TK9000. That's why I want to try racket with just a little bitttt head-heavier than JS12.

    Why not buy a set of yonex original grommets? They're pretty decent at least and the diameter should be the same.

    My stringer said Mizuno grommets smaller than Yonex. We may use the Yonex grommets but it will require a hard push. I prefer to buy Mizuno grommet sets if available.

    Ah. Fair enough. They must have drilled their holes about 0.1mm smaller..

    I hope I'm super lucky. Haha.:p

    My name on FB: Andika Hairuman

    The built quality and performance of JPX LTD is superb. I will never return to Yonex again (ever) because I had the best experience with Mizuno' latest racket like JPX LTD and I really amaze with Mizuno lately, i would be happy to get a new Mizuno racket - Prototype X-1 for free (also the premium and good looking bag) because I want to share my best experience with Mizuno' products in known and biggest online forum like BC and FTB in Indonesia.

    Keep making a great racket and I am waiting for new innovation from Mizuno. Even if I don't get the racket, I will buy it myself. Satisfaction is my priority and Mizuno delivered more than satisfaction. This is not only about my perception. It is a reality. Mizuno' badminton products is excellent. Badminton enthusiast like me and others must know and taste the best badminton products from Mizuno. I'm proud to own JPX LTD and happy to get another Mizuno' product for free. Wish the best success for Mizuno.

    Note: If I won, I will ask my friend in Singapore to collect it for me. :D
