    Could you please comment on the stiffness? Maybe reference to some other rackets you might have?
    Also any clue about head heaviness against 88s, nf800, or arcsaber 11 pro? thanks

    @HanBaddy and @foo.tw : are you two still using F11Q until now as your main racket?

    I have been eyeing for F11Q as well as my first Mizuno

    I still have 2 mizuno rackets and like the feelings, JPX reserve 3U and JPX limited attack 3U.

    The only problem i have with Mizuno racket is the G5 handle size. Its very small, its like yonex G6, but even slightly smaller than yonex G6. I have the solution, to increase the handle size but it adds up 2-3grams.

    Hope mizuno fix this handle size issue.

    JPX reserve is stiff. However, I found some weight differences from some samples. If you buy online, then good luck, you may get 3U with 87gr or 89gr (no string, original grip with plastic)

    Andhika, have you tried Fortius racket? I am interested with Fortius but from people who have tried it, they say it feels dampen compared to Yonex rackets. I wonder if JPX series have more solid feedback feel compared to Fortius rackets?

    I can borrow fortius 11 from a friend and let u know how does it feel. The issue would be his grip setup, which probably i dont like, i will try

    Idk about F, but had tried friend JPX. Its somewhat hollow feel. Similar to AVP but slight better feel. No matter how hard i hit, i cant be sure if its perfect hit or not.
    Not sure if its due to MZ characteristic itself or due to JPX also an aero frame similar to AVP.

    Its his opinion, which is fair enough.
    For me, i feel JPX series are good. Some are very good.

    I suggest you to consider the handle size which I mentioned earlier.

    Apacs Virtuoso Performance

    Might also be, speed racket are not my cup of tea. My weapon of choice are all Square box Hammer which definitely feel better than aero frame.:D

    I Second this opinion, it might be because it is dampened or something so it kinda feel hollow and too soft from my liking

    Jpx 7 Fury and Caliber S-Pro seem almost similar. I need input on both, they're similarly priced and I cannot decide which one to get.

    I'm primarily a doubles player and prefer 4U HH profile. Mid stiff/slight flex is also fine.

    I have the JPX 7 Fury, i like it so much that i actually own 7pcs now :D.

    For a budget friendly racket, it performs very well as a double's racket. Slight head heavy and slight flex (although Mizuno rate them as stiff) but it doesn't feel stiff at all. I can produce quite good smash with this racket (probably the aero hexagram helps), fast net taps and stick smashes are a joy using this racket.

    I dont have Calber S-Pro, so I really don't have any feedback for it, but I do own ax77pro, JPX 7 Fury almost feels similar to ax77pro (swing wise), slight head heavy, a bit of forgiving flex. But JPX swings faster due to the aero frame.
