Yonex Arc Saber Z Slash Review

[azis]

How does Z slash compare to ArcSaber 8-DX ?. Anyone tried it ?
I heard that ArcSaber 8-DX is the newest in the ArcSaber series, borrowing the material from Z and borrowing the design from previous ArcSaber.

sblmnya maaf ya pake bhs Indonesia..

bbrp minggu yg lalu baru beli arc z-slash..pertama kali pegang cukup terasa heavy head..lucunya frame lebih kecil dibanding raket yy yg lain..setelah nyoba main di lapangan, mantab bgt buat main menyerang..smash lebih powerfull..fyi sy pake BG66 tarikan 28 digital..

kesimpulannya recommended buat yg suka main menyerang..


mod edit (translated version):

a few weeks ago i just bought an ARC Z-Slash. First feel the racket is a bit head heady though its frame is smaller compared to other YY rackets. After playing with this racket, this racket is very good at offensive play and my smash is more powerful. FYI, i use BG-66 with tension of 28 (digital).

my conclusion: the racket is recommended for offensive player.

Lain kali harap menggunakan bahasa inggris yah.

Which one, the Z or the DX ?

Which one, the Z or the DX ?

DX, Z is built for attack......amazing powerful but numb feel especially when defense, very small sweet spot also make it more difficult to adjust for player which used to play with ISO frame...Z sweet spot even smaller than TC700

So, Yonex seem succesfull in their attempt to optimize Z shaft : slimmer, longer, new material. Probably that's an answer to gosen's two kick point system, victor's spiral wind, and head's power helix system, all are intented to optimize the shaft. But yonex seem failed / only partial success in optimizing maneuverability (too many trade off). They must go to the wind tunnel again and design another version of Z with aerodynamic frame instead of smaller and smaller frame.

Could you be more specific ?. How about it's power, swing speed, defence, manouver, etc ?. I have arc8dx and really want to have a good comparation between Z and DX. From previous page, some post stated that Z have a better swing speed. So, why some other post stated that Z lacking in defence compared to other racket ?
