    I was hoping to pick this up in while I am in China but it doesn't come out til March :(

    I got to look at the 2012 catalogue and showed this guy had a BP of 295mm

    40% off during the new year on racquets but ended up getting the non-N series stuff :(

    While I was in Shenzhen I bought the TB200C and the TP100C for 20% off at a Li-ning store thinking it was a good deal, once again they had no N-Series in stock as they sold out for the year.

    I'm kicking myself I didn't find the Hong Kong TST Li-Ning store earlier because I could have got 4 racquets for the price of the two I bought in China.

    Well actually it's not true they were totally sold out of N-series.. but both stores only had N60s and N70s which I had no interest in.

    I think this is a single racquet so it will not be similar to n90 s type. Head heaviness probably similar to other racquets like lining n55,55ii etc.. What I dont understand from that chinese review is that it say the sweet spot will expand upward. But is the sweet spot expand upward or move slightly upward? and is the stiffness medium stiff or less stiff than medium stiff?

    Man, that's an insane looking racket. Best looking Li-Ning by a huge margin.

    Now, if they could only do something about the price..........and weight (102g net!?!)
