You can try AJ Raket Mart in Puchong.
They are also selling other brands as well.
Or you could go to Pertama Racquet World. icon_question.gif brows.gif

Went to racquet world at pertama yesterday afternoon, was looking for a Voltric 7 but got a Voltric 1DG instead, not as much choice as I expected.
Strung it with Bg66 Force at 24lbs. All in with a RM10 racquet bag, a free grip and the string it cost me rm160.
Just using it to play rally stroke with my kids. Still getting used to it, it's fit for purpose but maybe the I could've strung it a bit higher tension, the frame can take up to 35 lbs. Should've tried out the shoes while I was waiting for the stringing to be done. Since I'm playing outside, right now I'm just using my old tennis shoes. But I'm thinking of getting Nike air zoom ultra react for indoor use if it comes to that.

Questions:
1. why do you need it strung to a higher tension? hmm.gif
2. what tension do you usually use?

Hi.
The noob in me thinks the sound when I hit the shuttle sounds terrible, like a trampoline not crisp, metallic and sharp like others.

Just strung it at 24lbs, not sure if I should go higher or lower. The shuttle will reach the baseline but slowly.

String is Bg66 Force btw.

I think your comment "like a trampoline" is due to the high repulsion of the string. hmm.gif
Different players play with different strings and different string tensions so possibly there is a sound difference.
Also, it could be the way (your technique) of hitting the shuttle which is why your sound isn't like other player's sound.

For your tension of 24lbs, I think for new player, it is more than enough. nod.gif
Usually players will start from 20lbs then gradually go up till they find the most suitable string tension for their playing style (skills?). flex.gif
IINM, factory strung racquets from Yonex are 18lbs.

Hi guys, my shoes are all torn even after sewing it, it had served me well for the past 4 years.

Was browsing for a new pair and come across the Yonex All England Shoe, price is very attractive as low as RM95 and was wondering it it's worth getting it.
I'm just a beginner level player and plays only once a week.
