![]() Within the next week or so I will be completing my written review of TKF. I had a hit with Astrox 88 S today and found it very difficult, which was a surprise. I agree Lin Dan Force was a great racket and I can’t understand why it has been removed from the range, apart from the fact that Yonex are scaling down the Voltric series and replacing with Astrox. Sorry to hear your original 9000’s broke. So, for me I am happy to provide a rating of five stars and a silver award. I had a lot of fun with this racket and it’s going to be great to hit with it again. Unexpectedly the 3U version was highly manoeuvrable with plenty of beef too. It’s at the top end of the price spectrum and every bit as good as any other top-end racket with this specification. Online retails have discounted down to around £145. In the limited time I have used this racket, every player who has borrowed it and tested it has wanted one. It’s definitely staying in my bag! What makes this work so well is that Victor have combined the right head weight with the right stiffness in the shaft. I’ll take this one step further and say that is the best Thruster from Victor that I have had the pleasure to play with. It’s a lot more user-friendly compared to Z Force II. These specs are very familiar and I can honestly say this racket is definitely up there with the best. However TK9900 mark III is completely the opposite. I had reservations about the Victor Thruster K 9900 having played with two previous versions that just didn’t feel good. Again, I felt as though I could keep going rather than tire quickly due to the weight in the head. Even one or two off-centre shots stayed on course which really pleased me.įlat drives and pushes were a lot more comfortable compared to other head heavy rackets with similar specs that I have tried. Whilst I don’t hit as hard, I still unleashed a number of big guns which kept me satisfied for the week. Yes, this racket is powerful and my testing partner rifled a number past me with so much ferocity and accuracy. I felt as though I could hit all day with Thruster K 9900, and that’s a huge compliment for this type of frame. It’s nice to be able to open up with this racket without feeling restricted at all by a weighty beast that can only be wielded for short periods of time. There is a great, solid feeling on impact with the shuttle without an noticeable lag in the head from the weight. This is like playing with an old friend.ĭrop shots were really quick and controlled. Whilst I’m not a huge fan of the compact head as it has that “tight” feeling on impact, TK9900 plays so nice and I could easily be converted. We now have a powerful and yet incredibly friendly racket that flows beautifully and hits so nice. After a few clears it is evident this is a completely different feel compared to previous versions. ![]()
