No - Europe doesn't get everything in the Asia catalogue (and there were some UK-exclusives that the even the rest of Europe didn't see last time).
You can order it online from mybadmintonstore.com or Eric from squash mart (eBay). Can't go wrong with either of them. Provided that you've tried it out for yourself from a clubmate. If you're looking to see how would do, and to test the stiffness then there are plenty of 3-rated stiffness Victor rackets out there.
I have two Brave Swords 12N (= black colour), just wanted one with the blue colour . Unfortunately the BS12 from MBS is with grip size G5 but I prefer G4. But thanks for the information!
Not sure if it's just me, but the specs on the TK5000 is making me drool. Seems like the TK6000's little brother. Hopefully someone will get it and review it! Maybe Paul Stewart will get his hands on one!
Yes, as I understand it there will be a limited run of the BS12 blue - probably towards the back end of Q1.
Will the MX-JJS be discontinued in Canada this year? I really want to purchase another if I get the chance to!
It's been discontinued for over a year already. Of course stock can still be found so it shouldn't be any problem for you to find one if you really want it. But you may have source one from overseas.
I really love how the JJS plays and how easy it is to generate power with! Looks like I have to look for a similar playing racket :'( That's unfortunate. Thanks though, it means a lot!
If you like it so much, you can still purchase some online, i.e MBS, Mr-C Heard that the MX-90 is the upgraded version of JJS, though I haven't actually played with MX90
That's unfortunately total hearsay. The MX90 is not an upgraded JJS. It is a different racket entirely from experience. The thinner shaft and lack of graphene make it a different kind of animal.
If I recall correctly (Have not played with the MX90 in FOREVER), it felt a bit more flexible and was less powerful than the JJS. It's made of a composite material as opposed to graphene, so I guess that's what makes the two distinguishable. It's still a great racket, however, just not the one for me.
Just found the "jigsaw" shirt as a worldwide item: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/Victor-Badminton-T-shirt-2015-Men-Badminton-Tournament-Jersey-Quick-drying-Victor-T-5005/32265873896.html That red one... I'm actually tempted to spend forty quid on it...
