    It was an 88D he used briefly before "moving" on to the AX99.

    Duora Z strike.

    The shaft looks like this because he uses the finishing tape of grips and wound it up to distinguish his frame from others.

    He also did it back in 2013 to his ZForce1.

    Don't suppose you could snap a pic or attach one could you?

    P.S. Duora 7 current black colour.

    Does anyone know whether it's a 3u or 4u? He played the lighter arcsaber and z-strike versions, but don't know about his current racket.

    I am sure he was using 3u z strike and he for sure can use the 3u 88s and not to forget , 88s in 4u is too weak so I am 100% sure it is 3u 88s.

    Definitely a 3u. MS players don't **** around with that 4U ****, unless it's super head heavy :D

    I had yesterday a go with 4U AX88 S. This thing really lacks punch and is damn light feeling and made my 4U JS10 feel like a ZF. I don't know what Victor uses, but I doubt that he ever touched a 4U.

    I can see there another QC defect from yonex
    I got myself a SP coded AX88S 4U and find it damn heavy compared to my JS11...

    I don't think it's reasonable to derive the difference in perceived weight as a QC defect, unless you measured your dry 88s with a scale and get a value of 87g when it's labelled as 4U.

    it's a little off from the usual yonex font/branding.

    @Junye Wonder why they all opt to loop around at the top cross.
