    I’ll just leave that here, I have a feeling that some might find it entertaining:



    Seems like they have made pulling out a form of art.

    Thanks to @Alex82 for finding this one!

    And prone to come with a significant risk of unwanted results. :)

    This is from a retailer. He tends to get the sample racket early.

    Don't get your hopes up. Adidas Badminton is dead and will remain dead. They had a bunch of updated stuff stocked ready for launch right before they quit and I guess that the P7.1 was one of those.

    That sounds reasonable enough.

    Just a thought - does that retailer has more of those zombie rackets around?

    That's an early sample, I guess. Kalkül were supposed to be updated early in 2022, then they decided to pull out. Again. I wouldn't be surprised if there were some batches in warehouses somewhere. Wucht was up this year for refresh, so one year after they left badminton hanging. I'm surprised to see any at all.

    I agree, I got some pre production P1, P2 and even the P4 that was never released a few years ago.

    I would be interested in some of that stock if they have more.
    Especially Kalkul range.

    Im curious, from management perspective, why would you quite the market when you have a series of new products in the backlog ready to be released :confused:

    Of all adidas rackets there, which one you like the most? What is your review of Wucht P8? And is there any story why you have that many adidas rackets?

    I took the pic on his racket. He also has some updated P8 called P8 SHOCK… I don’t think those are out either.
