    Some of you might have seen this but i had a chance to ask lots of players what they were playing with at the recent All England.

    yup exactly what i thought when they announced it along with the arcsaber 7 pro

    Wang Yi Lyu seen in the semifinals of Malaysia Open using the Astrox 99 Pro like Tang Chun Man of Hong Kong (Cherry Sunburst).
    Kinda like Chan Peng Soon when he joined the Malaysian National Team again (But eventually switching to the Astrox 88D Pro).

    Interesting HBJ still using old ZF. I wonder if YY make it just for her or its last available stock. If its last stock, i wonder if she had spare for it if the string snap.

    Most likely giving all Voltric Z Force II's they have left in stock. Just like Kanta Tsuneyama. Still using his ol' Nanoray Z Speed (I believe since 2015?). He was even using an SP-coded version in AE 2021.

    What's more interesting about the Voltric Z Force 2 version she's using: The black & gold limited version, a similar color palette to Victor's Thruster F Enhanced racket.

    HBJ has a rare character of being the decider of what equipment she's using for a professional player. In the AE interview, she's actually happy about ppl asking her about her shoes. Even in her Li Ning sponsorship days, she uses the rare Xiphos1 racket. A totally squared frame profile, with no aerodynamic properties whatsoever.

    Based on the quality of the pics I'm not sure if it is same color for mains and croo. Red aerobite looks quite often uniform pinkish red from distance, it is an optical illusion

    different angle: you hardly see the white cross strings.
