    Hi all, anyone can shed some light on what racket model Taufik was using during 2010 World Championships? The videos on youtube are way too blurry actually to tell. I was under the impression he was using Arc Z-slash Taufik edition but I ain't very sure.

    Quarterfinals vs LCW -


    Finals vs Chen Jin -


    Many thanks for your help :)

    I thought there was some rumours back then that he was actually using an arcsaber 10 painted like the TH z slash

    You are probably right..! I found a vid from 2010 French Open which was just 2 months after the WC. From this screenshot the paint looks like z-slash TH edition but the racket head size seems larger than it should have been.

    i held the broken Zslash TH racket back then, and I compare it with my own Zslash TH and Arc 10. In short, from the physical appearance the shaft and the head is just like the Arc 10.
