Get it! You won't regret getting a carlton =P

does it concern u?

yeah, carlton prototype at 240 is damn cheap, from what i seen, prototype is around 490-550

it's normal unless u string ur racquet more than 30lbs. what is ur tension?

My brother is using the aerogel 4d black

I think it is slightly head heavy...but very slightly...the staff is stiff but a little bit flexy. Good for smashing indeed. Bought @ RM220 with string and double bag.

yes, i read it somewhere in badmintoncentral. dont know call what theory ady. another factor for it is the slippery of the string. the lower the tension, the easier for the string to move

Btw, who is sifu chiller ?  

new string will move. i strung 30lbs oso move.
wait for it develop a slight gutter at the junctions, then it wont move that much
slicing will still move it though
new then go to first post before asking questions la

CARLTON Razor V1.1

228725-113136

This racket has been developed for advanced players with an aggressive game. The balance point has been shifted, making the racket head-heavy, and this, along with the stiffened shaft, all suits the more aggressive player: there is a faster racket head speed, as well as a more powerful stroke.

Razor Guided Technology softens the impact of the shuttle on the string bed to improve touch and feel, but not how it's done conventionally. A grommetless construction at three and nine o'clock ensures direct contact between the cross strings and the racket frame. This increased synergy between the two makes for razor sharp control and feedback.

Carlton's research and development department has been closely studying the bio mechanics of the badminton swing. This extensive research has been driven with one vision: to create a frame that delivers aerodynamic efficiency at every phase of the overhead badminton swing.

Bio-mechanical analysis of the overhead badminton swing highlights two distinct aerodynamic directions evident during the swing phase. Air flow analysis during the swing phase also demonstrates the existence of two aerodynamic directions. The Bi-Axial Dynamics frame develops more efficient aerodynamics in both directions compared to competitor frames.

This increased efficiency is delivered through a head cross sectional frame profile that is more aerodynamic than competitor frames. During development, over 80% of players stated the new Bi-Axial frame profile delivered increased swing speed.

Sourced from Japan, Japanese Hi Modulus (HM) Carbon is the highest specification carbon available on the market ensuring your frame will outperform all other construction materials for frame response and stability.

Precision engineering and the utilisation of the finest construction materials ensures your frame can accommodate 11% higher string tensions compared with competitor frames.

Using a matrix structure, Carlton has re-engineered the end cap to reduce its weight by 28% contributing to overall enhanced playability.

By combining the larger sweet spot size (resulting from an isometric geometry) and the increased air speed and control (created by the smaller conventional head geometry) within the same head shape, the new Optimetric head geometry delivers both power, airspeed and control in one frame.

Each premium Carlton racket is carefully hand crafted to precise specifications by skilled craftsmen utilising over 40 years of experience.

i wanna ask 1 thing, is it ok to replace the original grip with any replacement grip then put on an overgrip on top? i mean is it normal to do that?

mak aih, pnjg nye..  

panjang giler tuuu
cut the remaining off la

last saturday 18/6/2011, i saw pi hong yan at New vision Badminton academy training with our ex national lee tsuen seng. She's hot and beautiful...too bad no picta taken due to i shy >.<
