    This. The MX70 doesn't feel at all like MX JJS, etc.

    But yeah, it is disappointing that every racket comes out with the same specs.

    So does it sound like this mx90 stiffness is in between mx70/80 or in between mx70/60?

    since they'll be killing off the MX-JJS, will this be a reboot of the JJS?

    upon release, this will be the 4th meteor with 4HH/4Stiffness rating...

    No graphene in the MX90 compared to the JJS. They used the mysterious "hybrid composite" (same as the MX London)

    ;-)

    Yeah... If the shaft length and material are the same with MX80, then it will be slightly easier to bend but the color is rather yellow/gold than green. Noticed that MX70 and MX-JJS are no longer listed on the line-up and some online sellers are selling MX70 on a lower price. Are those to be discontinued and replaced by MX90 ?

    This is such a sad thing. 4/4, 4/4, will not suit me. I don't understand why Victor release rackets with this specs. I don't think they sold X70, XLondon, XJJS like hot cakes.
    A really head heavy Meteor, similar to a ZF or N90 would be great.

    MX90 :
    "The MX-90 is made using the all new HYBRID COMPOSITE, with its own exclusive physical property settings that greatly extend the length of time the shuttlecock stays on the racket face, allowing you, in the short time required to make a return shot, to play shots that are hard for the opponent to anticipate."

    and the Arc11 :
    "the frame is designed to flex at the point of impact, Neo CS CARBON NANOTUBE improves the frame’s elasticity helping to hold the shuttle on the string bed for greater control at the point of impact."

    do they sound similar or is it just me :confused:
