I'm sure all fans of road racing would like to join me in paying tribute to Joey Dunlop. He recently extended his record to 26 wins at the Isle of Man TT before he was tragically killed in a 125 cc Race in Tallin the capital of Estonia. It is not difficult to draw parallels with another legend, the Scottish F1 champion Jim Clark, both men were generous, modest men who achieved success at the highest level, yet were killed in small events they were doing for fun. Joey and Jim rest in peace. ...
Advantages: Good balance between power and accuracy, large head size and durable. Disadvantages: Power is limited when compared with other racquets that have a smaller throat.
I have had this racquet for a few weeks now and must say that having got use to it now, it is an excellent racquet. I have swapped from using a 'Prince 03 tour' which was very different.
The racquet I must say does not offer as much power as the Prince 03 however, if you were to restring the racquet this would no longer be an issue. This racquet is superb for drop shots! The wider throat really does help in making this a phenomeally accurate racquet.
This is the technical specification of the racquet:
Headsize: 500 cm sq
Frame Weight: 140g
String Pattern: 14x19
Construction: M-Fil/Aerogel
Balance: Head Light
String: M-Fil TS
Aerogel is a truly space age material. It is the world?s lightest solid and has a strength of up to 4,000 times its own weight.The three-dimensional nanometer-sized molecular network delivers ...
Advantages: Small, versatile, multi-functional, high-quality, user friendly, simple. Disadvantages: Video and picture quality, menu format, complicated to connect to PC.
The Panasonic D-Snap SV-AS3 is an MP3 player, a digital camera and a digital video camera. It has a compact, smooth and simple design with five buttons on the back and two on the side. The tracker ball on the back provides quick and easy access in the menu and makes the D-Snap very durable. It has no moving parts and so can stand a little rough handling.
The pictures are of medium quality, if viwed on the relatively large screen they are perfectly visable but when enlarged to a computer monitor size they become quite pixelated. The video quality is much the same and I recommend only viewing the videos on the D-Snap screen. The menu leaves much to be desired, although simple and quite user-friendly it lacks style. A major drawback is that the music lists cannot be edited on the D-Snap nor can they be accessed while music is playing ...
