Victor Thruster K9900

so nothing like the dull yonex solid feel core?

 

http://www.victorsport.com/files/en_us/tech/tech_list1365.jpg there's their graphical representation. Doesn't look anything like it tbh.

 

well currently have a 3u and 4u tk9000 and a 3u tk6000. if I wanna get another thruster I'd search for a optimus prime limited edition 3u.

 

Sound fancy and stuff lol but gotta wait until someone test it out to see worth the tech or gimmick.

 

I'll get one as soon as possible, Mark too probably.

 

I will either be slightly ahead or behind you 2 on that haha

 

Well im counting on you and Mark! Any estimate when is coming out.

 

A colleague of mine is off to Hong Kong next month. Might be too soon though.

 

Next month..That's a hit or miss. Knowing them it's probably gonna be August since they're teasing it now.

 

Definitely on my list. What do you reckon? Group buy?

And since it'll be imported, I might go for a 3U.

 

I'll probably go for a 4u

 

I'll go for the lightest 3U I can find first. Given the smaller head it might actually work out better for me than the TK9000 did in 3U.

 

I'm banking on the head and shaft thinness giving a weight-straddling speed bump, to be honest.

 

That idea has merit. Plus I actually must confess I really like that blue..so this is one for the collection too.

 

I wonder if Winston's getting them in... he's added a lot more Victor stuff lately. Depends whether Victor HK takes em, I suppose.

 

He probably will but the lately HK seems to get stuff at the same time as the rest of Asia compared to before where they got it at least a lil earlier enough to warrant the premium you'd pay to get it first.

 

Well, I've already put a call in to him to reserve me a couple just in case.

Is it me, or does it look a lot meaner in the official pics. Not keen on those stupid shoulder-grommets, though... cribbing from Yonex isn't the way to go.

 

Concur... its just not kool to have those extra grommets... such a hassle. A good racket should b able to stand on its own two feet... errr I mean foot...
{ ^.^}

 

Tbh the picture reminds me of one of the gimmicks that are introduced by the Adidas, zylon fiber if I recalled it right. It looks alike in my memory.

Let's just wait and see what Victor can pull out from this one.

 

The feel from the JS-10 is already excellent, but if this Hard Core stuff makes it even better...
