    Lining released this in China open. Now we have Sun/Moon, Earth? Star? Black Hole? Or straight up copying Yonex like BladeX 900 Pro?

    Full recessed frame, 76 hole, frame design seems like the same as the other 2.

    I don’t think so
    Both Sun/Moon don’t have fully recessed frames and a cone like this, if it is it would be a slight downgrade IMO
    I’ve never seen this quick repulsion thing before as well

    Promo video is up. Releasing March 2024, similar color scheme to Astrox rackets (mismatching frame color)[​IMG]

    Based on the trend with Hal and previous BladeX it would be slightly head heavier than bladex800new, lining’s newer lineup are fairly easy to follow now

    Head weight:
    Hal9000 > 8000 > 7000
    AX100 > 90 dragon > 90 tiger > 80
    BladeX900sun > 900 moon = 800 new > 800 old > 700

    Following the trend I think it will be slightly head heavier than 800 new, 6.6 shaft, fully recessed frame like 700 & 800new, and will use 速度之巅 for marketing unless they would like to save it for BladeX1000 in the future.

    The new 88s, and then this.

    My wallet and bank accounts are telling me "noooooo".

    Does anyone also feel it a bit worrying that all new rackets come out with grommet strips at 12 o'clock position or any other position? This gives me vibes of sinking frames out of the factory or is it just my Jetspeed 10 trauma experience? It seems that badminton rackets become more plastic than carbon rackets.

    Head looks compact and the frame quite Nanoflare 700-ish.

    I like Bladex800 alot except the vibration shock coming into my arm when executing smash.

    Waiting for more information and review of this Bladex900 new racket.

    I’m really liking this new colour scheme. Been wanting to try a Li-Ning head light racquet for a while now. Looks like it’s another must buy for me

    So.... what happened to this racket? Its like suddenly "disappeared" and no one is talking about it? Even though March 24 is the launch date?

    Launch date in China maybe? I heard they do not expect it until summer from Lining Thailand (june-July)
