    Thanks for sharing. I'd be surprised if he ends up using the z-speed though.

    I am quite certain if LD ends up with a YY, he will have a limited edition

    Obviously this guy is from out of this world because with china 1.3 billion population, they still can't find a replacement.
    As for his more rally style of play after 2009, yes it pays off handsomely :D

    Maybe just maybe victory can remove that mental barrier but its still going to be short lived :D Because every time he thinks of the skewed h2h he will get screwed again :D
    Much of this happening to him now is because of what he is doing to himself. Its unlike those days when he was virtually a stress free player :D

    Me too surprised if he used Z speed.

    Hope Yonex announced soon what racket he use!

    Well, if there is any player which can "tame" the Z-Speed, the first person in mind would be Lin Dan :D

    Well, judging from the previous records....

    Peter Gade - Arcsaber 10 PG, Voltric 80 PG
    Taufik Hidayat - Z Slash TH, Arcsaber 11 TH
    Lee Chong Wei - Armortec 900 LCW, Z-Force 2 LCW

    .... there might be TWO limited editions of Lin Dan coming our way.... Z-Speed LD and.... :D

    Not totally I believe. The other day my coach did bring to z-speed for me to try. One was Jap. Code, another Sin. Code. I said I did not believe in those code differences and he said try them. Well, the Japan coded z-speed was surprisingly head heavy. I play with a n90 first gen, and tried also that night the zf-II, and though they were all more head heavy then the Japan coded z-speed, it was not by much.

    Different head shape, frame design, 'normal' specs....a very heavy, but medium balanced racket will play different from a normal weight HH one...

    Yes, i did mot mesure the balance point or anything, but the feeling of the z-speed (though not the Singapore coded one) was very potent, attack-oriented for me (no Lin Dan in any way I must say). I still liked better my n90 though.

    After all the confusing back and forth information, one final time
    Has Lin Dan finally changed over to Yonex?
