    I tried to find one in Canada with the help of another member here and we weren't lucky in our search... Your best bet is oversees or used.

    Hi all. i bought a 2nd hand bs 12 blue that comes with a victor string, i think is 850. it's the ideal racket for me who plays doubles, usually at the front n play pushes a lot.

    BS11 is quite different from the BS12. I find it harder to defend with and the slightly stiffer staff makes it a little harder to smash with IMO. The head heaviness in the head of the BS11 throws my pushes off a little bit, but thats just me.

    I have a LHI (BS11). It's a bit head heavier than the BS12. I was using my BS 12 for XD at time and find it a bit lacking in the power dept. So I used tapes at 2-4 and 8-10 O'clock on the head to give it power. With the LHI, I did not need to do that. I don't remember if my defence did suffer or not with the head heavier frame.

    Where are you from bro? If you are from Perak I can recommend you several places with good prices. If not do search for Hi Badminton on Facebook as they are reputable online sellers in our country.

    Prepare to lose points due to mistiming the fast frame ;) and don't expect any amazing power.

    What he said. Jokes aside Ted. BS12's best application is truthfully more of towards LYD's play style. Defensive/counter attack. The speed of the frame allows you turn the shuttle very easily especially when you try to take drives and the front court quick.

    The funny thing is........the first time I used a bravesword(10), I couldn't actually feel a big difference in speed. I could hear the SWOOSH noise from the blade frame "cutting" through the air but not much in feeling

    Lucky you. Although I have no idea why noise is a factor and I'm pretty sure most will agree thay there is plenty of feel in the bravesword line in general especially the 10.
