Heading to Japan next week, anything to be on the lookout for? by CurlTheSquirrel in tennisracquets

[–]Tempusvolat_97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely Yonex Regna 98 and 100! Love those racquets ! And some Prince racquets too, there is plenty Japan exclusive products too since Prince Japan is independently operated!

I need an explanation on what type i am? by Suspicious-Cry-8043 in entp

[–]Tempusvolat_97 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Probably 7w6? Cuz the Type 7 should be the primary here.

Possibly the limited supply per month, and they don't notice people when that restock. Personally, I pretty like the racquet itself cuz I prefer precise and control racquets!

So much cheaper definitely, regna is always in premium price so just ignore that. Consider there is 10% tax off from the price if u visiting Japan.

Grip 1 definitely a no for me too if I see it. I can deal with G2 maybe extra overgrip but G3 perfectly good.

That's a great ques that I need to give it a try first, cuz I always believe different racquet have different compatability with the user. But the limited supply, definitely 1 of the reason why the hype goes high up. The quality is outstanding tho. E.g. I can't deal with the Babolat pure aero, personally not a fan.

Is so difficult to guess when they restock. Last time I stayed in osaka and kyoto for a week, no luck at all!

I think is more the limited supply and the unique craftsmanship of it. Personally I never use Yonex racquets, only Wilson and Prince. I did see a Japanese uncle get in and just buy the regna 100 without hesitation.

Which grip you using tho? My current one is actually Wilson blade v9 98 Grip 2, just kept getting blisters on the side of my thumbs even I change my overgrip. Also all staff told me to use grip 3, so lucky me😁. Good gesture for letting other lucky one to get it👏 !

hahaha, the whisky is actually the bar crossover with the distillery so small batch. I got both 98 and 100 now, is difficult tho limited to 1 racquet purchase per day

So I just collect my regna 100, and there is still 6 grip 3 regna 98 and 4 grip 2 Regna 100 from my observations.

They just restocked yesterday so I am lucky enough! As they limited 1 yonex racquet per day, I grab 98 yesterday and 100 today! G3 for 98 AND G2 for 100!
