Professional players and their racquets

no worries, gotta love the Four Legends always kind on sharing and inspiring aspiring young players (^o^)

Chou Tien Chen drops the VTZF1 and joins the DUO10 bunch.

While Greysia Polii changes from NR900 to NR-ZSPn (new yellow color).

 

That's quite a change from chou tien chen.

 

What racket is Ko Sung Hyun using here???

It's a mystery racquet. People are conjecturing it's either a new Jetspeed or Hypernano.

 

Even if Paul and I see it next week, it might not have decals on it, so we'd be guessing.

 

Just feel or look at the frame shape the answer will be there!

 

I posted this earlier on the Victor's fan thread, but here it is just in case.

"JS12, for the player who can't move on from the BS12. Here's looking at you Korean National Team"

 

KSH's looks like a new TK; the TK frame decals have the sort of wing-like spread along the bottom of the head near the T.

EDIT: Looks like it could also be a new JS, I'm seeing some decals on the 9 and 3 o'clock which is indicative of that line of rackets.

KHN's looks like a new HX; the signature asymmetrical crossed decals along the 1 o'clock/7 o'clock.

 

Ko's new 'mystery' racket was all decaled up at the German Open, so probably isn't far away from being announced.

And YYS not using his signature racket already. Srsly?

 

We strung five for Kim GJ last night.

However, the blank prototype is NOT the same racket.

 

Now I want both =(

 

Just kidding - they are the same

 

y u do dis to moi

 

Now we don't know are u not kidding, really kidding, or doing double kidding.

 

Is one of Kim's rackets going to go mysteriously missing for an hour or so by chance Mark?

 

Photograph dat sheeeeeiiit.

 

"I'm sorry Kim, one broke in the machine. We threw it away (into my bag already) for safety. Here have a biscuit"

 

Paul posted a pic of some of the Victor racquets he strung at the All Englands day 1 on facebook. You'll see that off to the side there is the shaft of the prototype/unmarked racket. Come on Paul, you can't just tease us like that!

 

Paul posted another photo of the racket. Unfortunately it's too blurry to see what's written on the shaft. Looks like "Jetspeed", but can't say for sure.
