    Hi! Anyone has a comparison between ZF2 4U, TK9900 and the new Duora Z Strike? Have been a happy user of zf2 4u until it broke recently so was looking for a replacement. Played more on Men's and Mixed and would like a racket just slightly less stiff than the zf2 :)

    Yes. It's been on directbadminton for a while now. If you're a badmintonengland member, there's a decent discount on it too.

    Tennisnuts have got it as well.
    (And I'd bet my house Pritesh has got them at Racketline, because he's got everything.)

    Here we go. Not sure how to quote but not from me.
    In case anyone was wondering I emailed Direct Sports and this is what they said.<br />There are 4 versions of the TK9900. Only the V3.0 is available to buy in Europe.<br />V1 – A different colour racket that was never released in Europe.<br />V2 – This was the version that was recalled, small orange bumper strips at the top at 2 and 10 o’clock. <br />V3.0 – The current European model available on our site. It has small black grommets all the way around the frame.<br />V3.1 – The current Asian model with a grommet strip at 12 o’clock. No date for European release yet.<br />V2 had a frame weakness that was fixed for V3.<br />The only difference, that we know of, between V3.0 and V3.1 is the bumper at the top and the colour of the U grommets at the throat.<br />We are currently displaying an image of V2 on the site. Our photography department has been informed to update the image to the newer model

    Racketline has more than 10 pieces, all are 3U5. The latest TW version and DE version are exactly the same to me.

    It's funny to call them V3.0 and V3.1. They're more like V2.1 and V3.0 to me.

    No. 3.0 and 3.1 are accurate descriptions. They're the same mould just different grommets used at the end. 2.0 had a vastly different frame. It was a box frame all around. The 3.0 and 3.1 actually have a completely different cross section.
