My exp differs frm mair. Coming frm TK9ooo 3u, JS10 4u feels headlight n lacking in power. BS12 blue 3u suits me better. Though both r similar in BP, the blue packs more punch. Using it mainly for defensive play.
That's where personal swing style comes into play. I also tested the BS12 blue in 3U and it was the opposite for me - I could hit harder with the JS10. But good point, the BS12 could also be an interesting candidate.
New racket slated for 2016, Hypernano X AIR. It will have Hard Cored technology, aero sword and nanotec and come in 4u and 5u Sorry couldn't find a better pic. Mainly blue with purple and yellow/ gold accents.
3 hypernanos even before 2016, god knows how many hypernanos there will be at the end of 2016. Looking forward to this if the hardcored tech does make it as solid as the tk9900. Great aesthetics.
4U should be the norm, rather than the exception. Just remember, the better you get, the fewer players there are at your level, and the reality for the bulk of players is that they're better off on 4U.
Cant agree.....a lot of players do much better with 3U. 4Us have to be very, very head heavy to be comparable to a balanced 3U (Arc11, for example), and you cant get the same head weight as with a head heavy 3U. Had the Tk5000 in my hands for testing, and while I wouldnt discourage anyone from buying it, it really couldnt compare to heavier models (N80, N90-III, N9,...)...
You've lost perspective because you're not part of the majority of players out there. Also remember, you can have a 4U that's only a couple of grams lighter than a 3U, but if it's head heavier it has the same mass behind the shot as the 3U, but because it's lighter it will also be faster.
