The stringer is from Victory Sport Ent. shop, located at ChaiLeng park, Penang. I think he's the shop owner. I just have my re-string with him. So far so good..
I wonder if anyone with a good eye for scales can see if it is a standard size racket or if it is a tad smaller, like the one of ZFII..? Cool colors anyway
Five strings you said?? Time to watch some recorded video of the match. [video=youtube;OjPcGO38-D4]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OjPcGO38-D4[/video]
Anyone who noticed that Lin Dan broke the frame of his new signature racket against Jan Ø Jørgensen as he was smashing? That seems very Arcsaber FB like to me. By the way, does anyone know what racket it is based around?
I think it's a signature version or "modified" version of the Zforce 2. He was using it previous to this new one. I wouldn't necessarily call it an Arc FB. He is known to have his rackets strung at a very high tension so any mishit can cause the frame to implode.
Agreed. We know he does it at 31lbs BG80. Either way it wouldn't be the first case of ZF II having a weird frame collapse even within warrantied tension.
Another 2/4 Jetspeed? There's already the 8ST and Natsir; another 2/4 and Victor will be competing against themselves. My money's on a 3/3 - they haven't done a 3/3 JS yet (which is odd, because a year ago they couldn't do anything but 3/3!).
I too string my rackets at around 30-31 lbs or 13,5-14 kg and none have had any frame problems from misshits (Arcsaber 10+11, Z-Speed, V80E-Tune, Head Metallix, ArcFB you name it). It seemed weird considering how he also had problems with his rackets and clearly wasn't very comfortable.
