Yonex AS-50

Just finish a doubles game today.

The organizer suprisingly used Yonex AS-50 today.

Awesome shuttlecock, lifts and clears seldom go long of baseline.

Speed is just nice and control is superb owing to high quality aerodynamics.

Smash really has the 'pow' sound of the professionals.

It's true, you get what you paid for.

Singapore Badminton Open 2010 (Li-Ning)

Just bought my earlybird season pass.

SGD19 for 1 week.

Grip bands

Another badminton product.

Pros: Good for securing the grip near the cone especially the the 'towel grip' and won't peel off the paint of the cone.
Cons: extra cost while basically a masking tape will do?

Overgrips?

Yonex acetec Overgrip AC742E
Pros: dirt cheap
Cons: not as tacky and under layer tends to stick and soiled the grip underneath

Toalson Ultra Grip
Pros: long enough for tennis racquet, tacky and long lasting
Cons: slightly more expensive

Yonex shoe sole spray (Dash-up)

It's a chemical spray to loosen dirt build-up.

I find it somewhat useful compared to just plain water.

The advantage is it evaporates pretty fast unlike water and the dirt just fell off as powder.

Badminton racquet made to order in China

Wow, customized racquets. Wonder which brand used their services?

I can made my own brand?

Yonex MP-3iSP (Tennis)

My only tennis racquet. Pretty nice racquet with a small head.

It's a pretty old racquet, came out in 2001 or earlier.

It has muscle power technology, isometric head shape and ultimum titanium.

Weighs about 300grams. Wrap with Karakal super PU grip + Toalson overgrip.

I used it for wall practise or tennis game.

Sometimes I use it to hit shuttlecocks to strengthen my backhand.
