Badminton Racket Yonex VOLTRIC Z-FORCE Ⅱ Reviews
A while ago I picked up a VTZF2, I can’t remember how many I’ve had.
Every time I played it for a few months, I would take it off and look for a new racket, but this time I played it very seriously for a while, maybe it resonates with me today!
VTZF2 (4U 310mm, 28lbs BG80) takes time to get used to, even if the AX99 and 90MAX Dragon are already very smooth, it takes more than two days to get used to it!
This time, I’ll try to analyse the VTZF2 from the point of view of playing feeling, this racket has been in the market for 10 years, is it outdated nowadays?

The appearance of VTZF2 back then accelerated the competition in the ultra-fine centre, forcing others to roll up on the diameter of the centre, and the EX-grade ultra-fine centre is not unheard of and in the forefront even today!
It drove Ghost Chopper and Axforce’s determination to stiffen up the island brands in the ultra-fine centre, and contributed to the main focus of competition in the top offensive racquets nowadays.
VZTF2 was just launched in 14 years, many people feedback that it is not as stiff as VTZF, not as stable as VT80, and the only thing people remember about it is its flexibility.
Back then, LCW and LD teachers were tied to VTZF2, and limited edition signature models were released in their respective new colours, which made it competitive.
Without the endorsement of the two top teachers, the final sales would have been better than VTZF.
In that era, VZTF2 was more like a “pathfinder”! It has a new naming system ZZ, a new frame structure and a new ultra-fine centre bar, etc. Several attempts have shown many industry peers a new direction for R&D.

Looking back at the 2014 VTZF2, it’s more of a racquet that was introduced to please the amateur market
It had the thinnest EX-grade centre in the entire green at the time in 2014, which gave it a bouncier, friendlier hitting feel
Compared to its predecessors, the VTZF and VT80, it had a faster swing speed, a more flexible centre, and a more manoeuvrable feel.
In those days, it was more like a proof that Green Factory was slowly lowering the lower limit of the racket.
It was a proof that Green Factory had lowered the lower limit of the racket slowly, so that a wider range of consumers could get the improved performance and shorter time to get the pleasure in a short period of time.

It may be that today, many people say that the VTZF2 is a wrist-breaker and a real man’s hammer of joy. But 10 years ago, there was a lot of feedback that it wasn’t hard enough or heavy enough. The two reviews were put together in a few years with a big gap, who was wrong?
I don’t think anyone is wrong, nowadays the market is more inclined to light, fast, high bouncy, easy to handle racquets with a bigger lower limit made
And 10 years ago, racquets were about who was stronger, faster and more powerful who could deliver better kills and results for the top players!
Everyone is right, it’s just that times have changed and the market has been educated to be different, it used to be about who had more depth and high end equipment. Now it’s more about getting the consumer happy faster. To please the mass market, now like to increase flexibility, reduce rigidity, increase product fault tolerance.
So the NF700 NF800 100zz is here, the pro is here, and they are becoming more appealing to the basic crowd.
They love the arms of all you golden daddies more, so that you can suffer less pain. This is not a downgrade in product or consumption, but rather a broadening of the consumer base, with a focus on the feelings of the sinking market, sales are more likely to go up!
Everyone is so busy, it is rare to find time to come out to play badminton, selling so expensive, but also let me spend a long time to adapt to it?
Now the discussion of wrist breakers, most of the people have just contacted the badminton racket, from the hands of 4u 5u sugar water entry level, suddenly rise to the top offensive level, it’s like you have just passed the subject of three, you want to open the Gundam, you think you are NT ah?

Playing VTZF2 again today, I feel it’s not lagging behind, it’s not too hard, it’s not too slow, and now I think it’s still good for a few more years.
When I hit the ball hard, the frame is very stable, the compression and deformation of both sides of the frame is not big, it has good stability, and even the thickness and solidity is not inferior to 88D and 99.
The instantaneous power transfer in wrist flash and finger power is not as direct and smooth as the feedback power of 99 and 88D.
However, after the whiplash deformation, the power and speed of the ball is beyond the AX99P and AX88DP, the same power has a more efficient power transfer.
Personally, I think the 99PRO is a bit behind the VTZF2, except for a bit better elasticity and a bit better stability of the ball in all directions.
VTZF2’s power pattern is wide open, as long as the point is found, the big arm back swing, can easily give you a better ball path.
The 99PRO is better because the sweet spot is bigger, the mid-range is softer and the frame is heavier, so it feels better to wrap the ball.
The 99PRO is much easier on the hands, the arm back swing is enough, even if you have a little difference, the larger sweet spot can also recover a lot of landing deviation.
A lot of people talk about the VTZF2’s small sweet spot, but I think it’s good enough for amateur doubles, not too small.
It’s just that the middle and lower part of the frame shrinks more significantly, and the upper sweet spot retains a medium amount of forgiveness.
Recently, VTZF2 and sharp shadow 800 mixed use, frequent replacement of the two experience, did not appear often hit the frame of the embarrassment, but took the 88S and VTZF2 on the mixed use, easy to hit the frame situation, mainly in the head frame area
Said it small sweet spot, should go to experience the CAB20 and Hayabusa, will let only feel quite deep!
The network’s remarks are just personal opinions, do not recommend that we all believe, it is recommended to look at the problem with suspicion, to seek evidence to get more equipment to the joy of blindly following the trend of life is tasteless!
VTZF2 now the offensive ability is still very top notch, still!
Whether it’s the efficiency of continuous attacks and heavy kills, I think the VTZF2 is completely beyond the 99pro a little bit, better than the 88s will be!
This is due to the EX class centre and the high aggregation sweet spot, this setup is still top notch even after 3 years of play.
It’s not as direct and crisp as the Dragon Teeth and 99, and it requires a long backswing to reserve more power, but it’s less of a vibration burden on the arms. The Dragon Teeth and 99 have the advantage of a higher performance ceiling, and the VTZF2 has a better deformation to generate elasticity.
I feel a little confused: VTZF2 a heavy hammer down that compression is not inferior to the 100ZZ, 100ZZ compared to the VTZF2 need a longer backswing to have more powerful compression, after all, the 100zz has a thinner centre pole. Maybe the ultra-thin centre bar will shed a certain amount of thickness and layering?
3U’s 100ZZ and VTZF2 I prefer high level players and singles oriented friends, the rhythm is not fast, but the elasticity is good burst high!

The VTZF2 has been on the market for 10 years and is still very competitive, and it is still a good choice to collect a VTZF2 today!
The VTZF2 has been on the market for 10 years, and there are very few things that the Green Factory has surpassed in terms of performance, and that’s only by a body length. I feel that in the past few years, Green Factory’s R&D has simply been touching fish and squeezing toothpaste, and what comes out is quite good, but it no longer has the feeling of making people’s eyes light up, and the idea of impulse spending is not there.
Green Factory surpasses VTZF2 in terms of word of mouth, I guess there won’t be any more in the future, so buy it and cherish it!
It is the end of a tough era, but also the beginning of the next era of pro-manipulation, it will leave a very important position in our memory, many people buy VTZF2 not for the excellent performance, but just to recall those years chasing badminton themselves!

Badminton Racket Yonex ASTROX 100ZZ/ZX Reviews
The hottest topic in the 2020 badminton world will be the postponed Tokyo Olympics due to the epidemic, followed by the ASTROX 100ZZ.
As the 2020 British Open, the last Super 1000 event before the Olympics, came to a successful conclusion in Birmingham, England, Viktor Axelsen and Hiroyuki Endo won their first career titles in the Men’s Singles and Men’s Doubles events, respectively, using the new ASTROX 100ZZ racquets. (Note: For ease of reading, the following text replaces ASTROX 100ZZ and ASTROX 100ZX with 100ZZ and 100ZX).

On the other hand, the epidemic swept across the world, the World Badminton Federation on 31 March released a statement on the official website that will freeze the player world ranking and world youth ranking updated on 17 March, effective immediately, the date of unfreezing will be announced.
More so, this “debut that is the peak” of the 100ZZ rightfully became the epidemic stage of the most attention of the Ran star, always on the superstar endorsement, equipment plus no faith in the author actually did not resist the circle of friends and the forum of the frenzied invasion of the 100ZZ, ZX early at the same time in the bag, but one of them! But more from the “Z” series of loyal fans of love.
Of course, I am also very lucky to be able to make friends with a group of lovely players during the epidemic, and through this month’s uninterrupted experience, I can finally share the feeling of playing these two hot and unusual 100ZZ/ZX.

100ZZ and 100ZX are both in dark navy blue as the main colour scheme, still following the “yin and yang” paint distribution design of the Ax series, and even more innovatively, the centre axis of the racket frame is painted with a mirror surface on the left, and the right is painted with a frosted airbrush to highlight its unique status.
The “yin and yang” painting style also makes me more worried about the phenomenon of imbalance between the left and right weights as in the case of the AX77 when it was first painted, but after a simple dynamic balance test, I confirmed that my doubts were superfluous.

The Ax 100 has an airbrushed pattern in the form of a “wave” that wraps around the side of the frame.

The same application is used on the centre tube of the racket body.

I can’t help but think of the vintage ukiyo-e style of Japan’s Edo period, and some golfers jokingly refer to it as an “Alpine lollipop”, which I’m sure is blueberry-flavoured.
From a distance, it’s hard to tell the 100ZZ from the 100ZX.

The only difference between the two balls in terms of paint is the colour difference between the model number on the frame at 7-8 o’clock and the ukiyo-e decoration.

The 100ZX is a solid dark navy blue lacquer, the main colour of the racket, while the 100ZZ is a more dynamic starry sky colour change inkjet. From this alone, it is clear to see that both rackets are clearly defined.

It’s not too much of a stretch to think of it as a fine piece of art.It’s not too much of a stretch to think of it as a fine piece of art.

This review shares the AX100ZZ (4UG5) origin: Japan; marking threading poundage: 20-28lbs; racket body length: 674mm; empty racket weight: 85.3g (after the line on the rubber 92.8g); empty racket balance point of 303mm (after the line on the rubber 303mm); empty racket swinging weight of 85-85.5, the length of the handle to the racket cone: 215mm (the handle is extended 10mm, cone cover is extended 5mm); middle tube radius 6.2mm, the length of the middle tube (the cone to the tee position): 205mm; the middle tube is moderately hard elasticity. The length of the handle to the cone: 215mm (handle lengthened by 10mm, cone cover lengthened by 5mm); the radius of the centre tube is 6.2mm, the length of the centre tube (from the cone to the tee): 205mm; the elasticity of the centre tube is moderately hard. The frame area is medium-sized, approximately equal to 354.

As my main racquets are the DZS, ZSP and ZF2, which are the three “Z” series of evergreen racquets, I have a preconceived notion of the DZS as a cross reference object. In fact, the AX100ZZ (4UG5) is very close to the 3U DZS (balance point of 295mm), but with a slightly heavier head. The AX100ZZ (4UG5) is actually very close to the 3U DZS (balance point 295mm), but with a slightly heavier feel.
Framing adjustments (vertical extension of the sweet spot)

When comparing the frame with the AX99, we can find that the 100ZZ has made slight adjustments to the frame – making the frame “slimmer”. It seems that the frame has been narrowed down to bring the sweet spot together, but in fact, it has not reduced the size of the frame substantially, and instead, it has expanded the sweet spot vertically. This also makes the ZZ more difficult to adapt to at first, even if you are skilled in controlling the premise of the DZS, you will still not be able to seamlessly connect the two racquets, but the frequency of hitting the frame will be significantly lower than the first time you play the ZSP, DZS situation.

When swinging an empty racket, the medium-sized frame area does not let the 100ZZ have a significant lag in swinging speed, coupled with the 4U of its own weight, although not a windbreaker frame design also puts its swinging speed in a medium position, due to the modification of the frame, the cross-section resistance is relatively reduced, in the same specifications, it will be slightly faster than the AX99, slower than the small frame design of the DZS (both slower than the windbreaker, the box type). The AX99 is a great choice for the same size of racket.
Déjà vu precision strikes
If you have used the DZS before, you will not be able to escape from the instantaneous explosion of body and precise ball path when hitting the 100ZZ high ball, which is so close that it is almost impossible to get rid of the feedback from the racket surface. Of course, this is only for the DZS forehand box type frame, and then recall the DZS racket frame material selection is also clear up, it turns out that the two in the racket frame material selection at the same time are used in the dense carbon.

The ultimate midpipe rebound experience
I’d say that the 100ZZ’s stiff frame feedback on shots is similar to that of the DZS, which is bound to dissuade a large number of enthusiasts, after all, there aren’t a lot of amateurs who can really drive the DZS.
But what about the officially advertised “Hyper Slim (6.2mm diameter ultra-thin solid centre tube)”, which provides the same kind of frame feedback as the DZS.
When I broke the 100ZZ centre tube with my bare hands, I could clearly feel that its stiffness value is significantly lower than that of the DZS, and the reflex point of the frame is closer to the head, which makes it easier to press down. In the actual hitting experience, I was really looking forward to and savouring the different feelings brought by the “solid centre barrel”, but unfortunately: apart from the fact that I felt it was easier to drive and easier to hit with the centre barrel deformation and ejection sensation compared to the AX99 and the DZS, there was nothing else amazing; the 100ZZ has achieved as much as possible a reduction in the diameter of the centre barrel, and the centre barrel is as small as possible. The 100ZZ reduces the diameter of the midpipe as much as possible, and fills it with a new type of material to enhance the elasticity and cushioning of the midpipe in the form of “solid”, lowering the threshold of control.

So only by comparing the length of the centre tubes of the ZSP, DZS and 100ZZ racquets can you appreciate the uniqueness of the 100ZZ’s centre tubes. The thinner centre tubes do bring more elasticity gain, but at the same time, the requirement for accuracy is also increased, and it is obviously the most important thing to do to make sure that the ball doesn’t play out of order.
As we can see, the length of the centre tubes of the three racquets (from the cone cap to the frame tee) are: 223mm (ZSP), 205mm (DZS) and 205mm (100ZZ) respectively. Shortening the centre tube reduces the swing range and also shortens the force arm, which gives the 100ZZ a good performance in spot kills with a relatively fast swing speed.

Not only that, in order to improve the handling of the racket, adhering to the AX series of unique nozzle sleeve tube also ushered in the upgrade of the E.B-CAP upgrade version – E.B-CAP PLUS (extended version of the nozzle sleeve cone cap design) thought at first on the network is also based on a spy photo of the cone cap to identify the other models of the 100ZZ coatings demo.

The E.B-CAP PLUS is not only longer (5mm) but also more ergonomic and easier to hold.

We know that on the premise of ensuring that the length of the racket body remains unchanged, a series of initiatives to lengthen the handle and cone will certainly shorten the length of the centre tube to a certain extent, and it is precisely for this reason that a shorter centre tube, in the form of a “Hyper Slim shaft (6.2mm ultra-thin and solid)”, can be achieved in the relatively shorter and thinner case. This is also through the comparison of the 6.6mm longer 100ZX without Hyper Slim shaft (total length of 674mm, centre tube 205mm) and other data and the author’s own conception of the combination of body feeling to reach the conclusion, just for reference.
Consecutive raids are never gravity infested
The longer cone is not only ergonomically designed, but the more forward grip is undoubtedly designed to improve the overall manoeuvrability of the racket, which lays a solid foundation for doubles net play. With the forward grip point, the racket can be used to block early in the centre court, which is a “physical weapon” for blocking at the net.
However, to be honest, the fluid cassette is still at a disadvantage in terms of swing speed in the mainstream windbreaker cassettes, but the good thing is that the stability of the cassette is more reassuring.

The shortening of the centre tube and the use of the sleeve’s fish mouth cone cover minimise the excess swing of the centre tube while ensuring the directionality of the 100ZZ’s ball. In the hitting experience, the 100ZZ’s high balance, downward driving force against the forward folding point and stable directionality have made it possible to achieve a more efficient and consistent attack than the same specification of the DZS, and it is even sufficient to hold a candle to the 3U DZS with its 4U body. The 100ZZ is still not a match for the 3U DZS. Nevertheless, the 100ZZ still doesn’t have the absolute power to attack.
The stiff frame feedback is not friendly to players who are used to seeking attacking opportunities with the help of pulls and hangs, as I paired it with the rigid attacking Bg-80 (28lbs), which has a weak ball wrapping feeling when hitting the ball, little sense of unloading, and the ball is too dry and brittle, and the performance of the other one with the Bg-66um (27lbs) will be a lot better.

If the improved attacking power of the DZS was not enough for me to get a 100ZZ, the most amazing thing about the 100ZZ that I could not have imagined was its excellent defensive release. The longitudinal sweet spot not only improves the forgiveness of the racket on shots, but also the medium size of the racket face makes me wonder about the “Z” designation, what happened to the small “Z” frame?
Combined with the use of New Dimension Carbon to bring out the resilience of the middle barrel, compared to the weak defence of the DZS predecessors, the 100ZZ and 100ZX have the best defence among the “Z” series rackets, and also allow you to be confident when picking up a high ball!

Rigid feedback frame characteristics, with high net pressure of the overall line bed, making the 100ZZ, 100ZX in front of the net in the tussle to pay particular attention to the road control, a little inattention will be easy to bounce the ball over the high net by the opponents take advantage of the momentum of grabbing and pushing the pouncing.

AX100ZX (4UG5) Origin: Taiwan, China; Logo threading poundage: 20-28lbs racket body length 674mm, empty racket weight: 84.5g (93.1g after the upper line on the rubber); empty racket balance point: 310mm (310mm after the upper line on the rubber); empty racket swing weight 89-90, the length of the handle to the racket cone: 215mm (the handle lengthened by 10mm, the cone cover lengthened by 5mm); middle tube radius 6.6mm, the length of the middle tube (the cone to the tee position): 205mm; the middle tube is moderately hard elasticity. 5mm); centre tube radius 6.6mm, centre tube length (cone to tee position): 205mm; centre tube elasticity is moderately hard. The frame area is medium-sized, approximately equal to 354.

Compared to the AX100ZZ, the biggest parameter differences between the AX100ZX and the AX100ZX are that the 100ZX is of Chinese-Taiwanese origin (with no JAPAN lettering on the bottom cover), and the diameter of the centre tube has been adjusted to 6.6mm.

In gloss, the 100ZX is slightly more subdued and dull than the glittering 100ZZ, with the “Ukiyo-e” motif colours leaning more towards a darker green.

If the 100ZZ is positioned as a racquet that focuses on attacking consistency in the front court in doubles, then the 100ZX is definitely a heavy gun to do the “dirty work” in the back court. 100ZX will be more head-heavy in the hand due to its more forward balance point, and the swing weight will be greater than that of the equivalent specification of AX99 and the equivalent specification of ZF2 is very close. The 100ZX is very close to the ZF2. Many golfers may have the preconceived notion that the 100ZX is a lower configuration version of the 100ZZ, which will be easier to handle, after all, the mid-range price is right there.
However, in practice, the 100ZX is significantly easier to handle than the 100ZZ, and its high swingweight makes it particularly good at heavy attacks.

Similarly, the 100ZX has the same excellent ability as the 100ZZ in passive defence, and is superior to its “Z” predecessors in terms of power play and top, pick, point, pivot.
I will understand 100ZX as 100ZZ advanced singles or more suitable for men’s doubles, mixed doubles backcourt attack of a strong offensive racquet, it will be easier to manipulate than the previous ZF2 on the hand, the middle tube is easier to drive than the DZS, ZF2, the defensive ability is outstanding, the same recommended for amateurs to start 4U specifications.

You don’t need to compare the 100ZZ and 100ZX if you get both, trust me! You will definitely prefer the 100ZZ, and it’s hard not to be impressed by the bright starlight logo. Of course, if you like the 100 but don’t have enough budget for the time being, the 100ZX is also a good choice, after all, the powerful attack of the new carbon is still very fragrant.

Threading with: love the net against the flat draw attack, and back court attack of the ball players recommended with Bg-80, for those who prefer to control the feel of the ball players recommended with Bg-66um, specifications or more recommended to start 4U specifications, after all, for the fluid box box type 100ZZ, 100ZX, do not choose the case of 4u, the swing speed is still too slow.
Although the 100ZZ/ZX has a high degree of difficulty in getting started, its excellent hitting performance is also worth the patience and care to adapt to taste. Nowadays, YONEX’s “Z” series is still on the road of pursuing the ultimate, but it is also widely accepted by more international players and amateurs, which inevitably makes the 100ZZ and 100ZX become another classic racket named after “Z”. The 100ZZ and 100ZX will surely become another classic racket named after “Z”.

Badminton Racket Yonex AXTROX 100zz Reviews
This is one of the most surprising flagship shoots in recent memory for me.’s

Parameter Interpretion
4UG5, with sole, total weight in used condition 93.9g, balance point 295mm, 6.2mm solid centre bar, tuned on the stiffer side, length 205mm, ergonomic fish mouth cone cover, full wire channel box frame, warranty 28lbs, pulling line 27-28lbs bg66u
This is an old colour as it’s a very familiar racket now, and there’s not much worth saying about the appearance. The usual asymmetrical finish of the Sky Axe series is mainly a dark blue primer with orange paint at 4 o’clock highlighting the model of the racket, and a large cloud-like texture at 9 o’clock as well. The colour is okay, but not too much of a wow factor.

This racket is different from all the Axes I’ve used before, and even compared to the 88s this 100zz seems to be lighter and faster. Yes, I wouldn’t have thought to use the word “light” to describe a racket that has been used by many men’s singles players, despite the fact that the official review from CWF said that the swing speed of this racket is not fast enough. The reason why the racket gives me the feeling of lightness is that the balance point of the racket is not really high, according to me it belongs to the category of balanced racket, the head weight is a little bit but not too strong; secondly, the racket as a whole is very slim, both in the performance of the industry leading position of the 6.2mm ultra-thin middle shaft, and also has a narrower equipped with NAMD New Dimension Carbon rounded frame.
It’s worth saying that the 100zz frame looks different at first glance, and it feels like the line bed has been stretched, which according to the official review is that it has narrowed horizontally, which inevitably leads to a narrow distribution of the sweet spot.

A few high shots down, I can feel that this is a hard tuning equipment, but compared to the dzs, which is also a 205mm long centre shot, the drive feels significantly higher, the ultra-fine centre shot has a full drive feel, and the area of the line bed is within the normal range, and the difficulty of adapting to the sweetspot isn’t as hard to adapt to as some of the players on the Middle Feather have claimed.
To be honest, although I can’t say that the transition from other rackets to it is seamless, it’s a lot less difficult to get used to than I thought it would be. 100zz’s ball feel is actually crunchy and poppy, and although the overall stiffness of the tuning makes it less obvious that it’s borrowing power, the elasticity of the mid-shaft is very bright, and the quality of the ball for the amateur player will not be low as long as he can hit the right sweet spot. For singles players, there is no doubt that you should choose the 3U version.

The racket gave me two delightful surprises, one of which was the 100zz flexibility. It’s not hard to find that there are actually a lot of pro doubles players using this equipment, and in my experience down the line, this was certainly the one Axe that performed the most satisfactorily for me in the first half of the middle game. Because it is 4U and does not have an exaggerated head weight, this makes me feel confident in facing flat draws, and the dry style of ball striking can be a fast-paced short game weapon with the lower wind resistance of the racket.
After using the 100ZZ, I was able to grab more high points at the net to make richer shots, and after adapting to the racket’s hooking, rolling, pushing and picking all have a very good sense of precision, which is rare for a racket that is generally considered to be very difficult to satisfy the twist resistance of a thin centre stick.

The other thing I was pleased with was the all around excellence of this centre pole. The midrange is made thin and bouncy, not a slow driver but explosive with a high ceiling. There’s no better way to experience its performance firsthand than when you get the chance to kill the ball on a downswing. Compared to its 88d or 99 counterparts, the 100zz doesn’t really have a powerful feel to it, but the feedback from the shot can be very unique while still being direct – you can feel the head of the ball as if it were a small stone on the string of a slingshot waiting to be fired, and it’s full of energy. If the user has a good explosive power, accompanied by a metallic sound effect, the ball can be killed with a lot of punch. Green seems to be focusing more on the performance of the mid-range in their tuning, and this tuning makes the 100zz very appealing. With the short time I had to try it out, I wasn’t even able to dig deeper into its upper limits.
Not only is it resilient, but the recovery speed and torsional resistance of the centre bar are at a fairly high level. Although the spring effect of a thin centre is generally more pronounced, the 100zz continued to perform well in the flats in a consistent manner, recovering very quickly from deformation. At the same time, its point kill performance is also very pleasant, combined with the lightness and speed of the characteristics of the doubles to have more catching putt blitz and mid-court blocking capital, and often landing accurate enough sharp.

Indeed, it has an excellent hitting feeling that is unforgettable at first try ah, its performance is very excellent and can cope with a variety of scenarios, and has not been over-rated. Although the 100zz is not yet a good racket for novices, I believe that for players with a certain amount of experience in badminton, this is a racket that can be used until the exit circle.
The centre is particularly praiseworthy, but it’s not perfect, the thinner diameter requires more strength, and I think the few reports of broken centre and the scene where Axelsen took the winner’s point speak for themselves. The price should be high by now, but I think there will be a lot of players who will buy several 100zz’s at once to have a spare and to stabilise the feel, and it’s really worth having.
