Victor Jetspeed 12 !

Thanks Paul. In a precedent post, you wrote that you prefer the 3u ; could you explain why (while you seem to prefer the js10 4u) ?

 

I wish they'd done a 9200 colourway that matched the K9900... and actually made the 9900, come to think of it.

When is the JS12 being released over here? I thought we were all going to see it at the same time!

 

Still hoping end of this month but most likely beginning of September.

So did I but distribution seems to be more fragmented than usual with this racket - even some of the usual suspects in Asia have had a very small batch, sold out and then struggling to re-stock quickly.

 

It's important to remember that initial stocks were sent to Asian retailers only a few weeks ago. In Europe we have to consider the goods being 8 weeks on the water and 2-3 weeks in customs. That's why it's impossible to launch simultaneously.

Is JS12 better for doubles or for singles?

 

Brought a JS12 4u g5 from a local badminton store. Hope it can swing faster and lighter vs the 3u version.

 

Mostly for double players, but it's depend on individual preferences.

 

I've had about 8 hours playing time with a 3UG5

First impressions against a JS10 is that there is a more solid feel when hitting the shuttle. It doesn't feel as fast as a JS10 probably due to the bigger head on the JS12.

Smashing wise, IMO the JS12 is powerful but I can't directly compare as I have a 4U with powerizers on my JS10.

Defense is superb as it is a speed racket, nothing special here.

I think this is a great successor to the BS12 as they both have similarish specs. (I don't have my 3U BS12 to directly compare with me right now). I hope this kinda helps

Friends in Singapore, have any of you seen a 4U js12? Malaysia only has 3U now and they're all 91g at least.

 

Germany has only 4U ^^

 

Chris from E-Link at Ang Mo Kio mentioned to me that he provide pre-order of JS12 4U for his clients

 

I see. Thanks!

I had sold my JS12 3u and now I am using a 4u. You can get from Gala at Queensway, it's SG coded Victor racket.

FYI, other retailers might sell TW coded and furthermorinstead of SG coded in Singapore.

 

Honly Trading Sdn Bhd have received the stock for the 4U JS12 today.

 

How do you find 4U compares with 3U?

 

3u is heavier and slower compared to 4u especially in defense but have more punch and more solid feel in attacking.

 

Thanks bud. Do you know why some retailers carry TW coded rackets?

 

Thanks man. I just saw it today, it's too bad they don't have a shop front. I can't measure the rackets before buying them.

 

They do have a shop at JB. Look for their address in their FB page. Just search honly trading.
