Is this the Tretorn Micro X presureless ball? Where did you buy them?

Yes, it is.

I bought them for US and I really like their bounce consistency. After a month, the bounce still there even though the fur already gone. tongue.gif

If bought together with racquet should be no issue with custom. I am thinking of getting few racquets along with 12 pack bag....If I order a bag and ship it a piece, there is surely custom tax waiting for it.

I'm looking for a 12 pack bag that has a thermo control. Babolat aero is nice but it is kinda expensive. Maybe Head 12 pack bag is good for me.

i thought for sports equipment there's no tax imposed, right? sweat.gif .. the only things that make the price in malaysia more expensive due to shipping cost. That's y when u order from oversea, the items can be shipped straight to your doorstep  wink.gif .. If there's tax imposed, i'm sure the items will be stucked at the custom waiting for us to clear the tax first.. my opinion ler kot because from my experience i never been to custom to clear tax when i'm ordering things from us (beside tennis stuff)..

kan best kalau shipping from oversea macam poslaju punya rate jek kan?.. hahaha (daytime dreaming)  rolleyes.gif

Sport equipment such as racquets, baseball bat are not taxable. It is different category for grips (rubber) bags(textile) which carry certain rate of custom tax and duty for them. Last time I brought replacement grips (20+) along with racquets and lucky enough there was no tax because the shipment was mainly about racquets.

In my opinion, the best way for me to buy the bag will be to include at least 5 units of racquets or more so that whenever custom ask me I can simply tell themthat the bag is a free gift as I bought certain amount of racquets...hehe.....kena main tipu sikit lah i guess... tongue.gif

ic.. usually what is the maximum safe tension a good tennis racket can withstand?.. what string brand is the best string for generating high topspin? (thinner produce better bite and higher topspin potential right?)...
*
It depends on the spec of the racquet. Normally a racquet should still be okay with 5%~10% of the maximum recommended tension.

I am using Topspin Cyber Flash 1.25. It is quite topspin friendly string. It is a high durable string as well.

Good Evening guys,

I just went to Politeknik Permatang Pauh and I found that they no longer permit Public to use their court on free-of-charge basis but rather RM 10/hour rate now.

I was a bit disappointed because as far as I'm concerned Politeknik is Public education institution. If they are private institution it is understandable. I guess they use their own money to built the facilities thus other people than their staff and student want to use those facilities must be charged.
