RF had measure the new color 88D, compare to old 88D the result is kinda different Old vs new 3U : 89.5 vs 88.5 4U : 86 vs 87 3U version seems abit less powerfull but 4U seems abit more powerfull. So, do 88D have different spec or it just production tolerant (+2/-2 BP & weight)?
I asked them (racquetforce) the same to see whether it is consistent across all 4U samples or just a tolerance issue Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk
The old one is quite BOOMING & many want to have it. What makes it worst their little brother 68 & 38 had the same color, so its everywhere to see. So, new color is way to go But what important right now is when we can get back in action again... Sigh...
I personally think its just a production thing, what gets me interested is the Ax99 tho, BP doesnt seem that crazy anymore, so it might be better for doubles I know theres better choice but the more i look into the new colourway the more i like it
AX99 kinda more like old AX88D in term of swing weight. So it might be a 88D with full namd. 3U 88D getting less swing weight, maybe coz some think it might be to heavy/slow for double, while 4U getting more as the opposite, some think 4U 88D lack for punch. Just my opinion anyway
get to hold the new 88s 4u in my regular shops. seems like the BP is different from old 88s. Red&white colorway seems to have more weight in the head compared to old edition. I simply had dry swings in the shop. Also probably this differ due to manufacturing variances as well, and i am not sure whether AX88s have similar treatment as the first batch of AX99 where it is significantly more head heavy than the later batch. I got my AX88s pretty early during their first launch. Not sure whether they alter the balance point on later batch as well.
