Of course they do, gripping your racket is a much a personal preference to what strings you use. Specifically in what order and what type/brand/thickness etc, well you'll have to wait and see. I personally put another grip on top of mine (leaving the original grip and shrink plastic on top) and finish it with a rubber sealing grip.
I still see them at racket shops along with the special edition rackets so I guess they are still making them.
In my books, the very best racket out there right now. Especially in 4U... powerful yet versatile, and very good looking.
Yeah, I agree. 4U has excellent power, acceptable speed and is hard to break. If you buy only 1 racket, that is the one to go.
I already tried DUO10, Arc11, Z Speed, and few other high end rackets. Still, i stick to my 3U VTZF2 ~
Just got LCW edition to replace my broken black ZF-II, and the head shape is completely different! About 10 mm narrower and 5 mm shorter. Has anyone compared LCW edition to standard one, are there much differences while playing? I would imagine LCW edition is faster due to smaller head but more difficult to play with for the same reason. I can only try my new racket next week and would like to hear some experiences.
Black one is strung with 23 lbs and LCW edition has factory string (that will be replaced today). They're both made in Japan, black one is JP coded and LCW edition is DK coded. I can post photos tomorrow comparing the sizes.
Here is a photo comparing standard black ZF-II to LCW edition. I also measured stringbed sizes. For standard it's 23.9 x 18.9 mm, for LCW edition 23.4 x 18.0 mm. Quite a difference.
One on the left doesn't look legit to me. You 100% it's real? The corners at the top don't bevel outwards. Edit: The shafts are also different, and the grommet setup looks a bit off.
Agreed. The grommet setup for the left one isn't 2+4 at all. It's the regular 76 setup. Might just be the picture combined with the paint job but the LCW looks pretty compressed too.
Agreed, it does look compressed, but it's still the rough shape I'd expect. The one on the left isn't. I think your black might be a fake mate.
LOL, it really looks like fake now. I bought it from private seller as new and sure enough there was no receipt. Also grommets on the sides are different. But I did like the racket, compared to Voltric 70 and 80 it was so nice. If the real thing is even better then great, looking forward to try it.
Less than half price compared to new one. I guess LCW edition is now legit one, I bought it from reputable large online shop. The fake one broke down as wooden handle cracked. Now I'm just happy it broke, assuming real deal is better than fake
