walao..high tension?

another walao..wont try

then you should try thicker strings
zymax67, bg80, bg85, bg68ti
quite near to 0.66

it depends on what grip u use
of course, a thick replacement grip will be heavier than an overgrip by quite a bit
the heavier the grip, the more the balance will be affected

is the string already on when your brother choose the Ti3?

if the new racket is without string when your brother chose it, then most probably it's strung by the shop..might not be yonex string. have to ask the shop

Yonex BG66. it's powerful and nice hitting sound
quite a lot of yonex string has nice hitting sound..do some googling

should be malaysia

what is your play style? attacking/defensive? singles/doubles?

for that budget, i rather get Apacs top line. AS008 should be similar to Tantrum series? Tantrum 200 suits doubles more.
if single, can get Lethal 70. if add extra RM50, can get Lethal 90 which is latest model from Apacs with aerodynamic frame.

yonex low range have very low max tension. if you string over that tension and it breaks, yonex wont let u claim warranty.
Apacs have higher max tension. if it's a clash between rackets, every racket have a high chance of breakage no matter it's Yonex, LiNing, Victor or other famous brands.

err you very skinny? 20lbs is really low. not most, is ALL racket can take this

apacs clones are very high quality IMO.
i have my clone strung at 28lbs without any problem.

for shops u can go to Pertama Complex. got 2 shops there i think.
or u can go Puchong AJ.
or u can contact arc1414 at this forum. he's based at KL.

walao bro..so rough eh

u clash with hammer or electric saw? lolz

high 5 bro!!

jon, arc is soooo happy to have customers like u

285+3 = 288mm
285+5 = 290mm

balance point is measured from most end of handle to the balancing point on the shaft
so the higher the BP, the head heavier it is

should be 675/288 because it's measured from the handle ma

makes a lot of sense but the extra 5mm is not distributed evenly on the whole racket?
the height of the frame should be similar for most of the rackets..
so the extra 5mm might be added to the shaft or handle

let's find a real sifu to confirm this..mana itu ARC???

p/s: sometimes the BP will not affect the head heaviness so much but what does more is the distribution of weight on the frame
example: AT900P and AT900T. they both have same BP but the difference in head heaviness when swung is quite obvious
also note that i've not demo both example rackets and i knew this by reading..please correct me if i'm wrong

lolzz..you're LYN's version of Sir Panda
don't tarik u, tarik who jek?

it should not have big difference after strung..well depends on how thick you grip.
if it's thin then most probably it will feel slightly heavier but still almost the same

restring lor

+1.."like"

lol..fb syndrome

what is your playing style?
offensive/defensive/all-round?
singles/doubles?

basically all the apacs clones are almost the same
4u, BP285mm medium stiff shaft.
maybe you can try the EdgeSaber10 which clones the Arc10

for string, BG66 have good power, partly because it is a 0.66mm string
for a more rough texture string, you can try BG80. rougher texture means better "grip" for slicing shots which i think provides better placing abilities

yes. accurate.
it's a very good racket but lack a bit of power IMO.
it should be due to the 4u lightweight.
if you can handle it, stringing it at high tension will be a plus since it will generate more power IMO.
some lead tape at the frame should give more power.
