I can’t see that either. I wonder why? It’s just a little box

Maybe the hosting site is blocked on your network.

I think it's because of some sort of ddos prevention thing. If I go to the image url directly and get through the protection, then I can come back to the thread and see it. Kind of a pain, but it works that way.

I think that by the time the Clash is in stock and ready to go the 93P 14x18 is going to be out of stock. Demoing from TW is always suspect if it isn't showing all racquets as in stock now. They don't hold

 

[Dartagnan64]

I think the 93P, both versions, the 100p 18x20 and the Wilson Clas should be reviewed by Jolly.

Already did the 100p.

I'm like VS. Can't see anything. Just an empty box, looks like you hit space bar for a minute and then hit post. See pic below. Is that a list of demo racquets next in line for you?

That’s a beautiful white box with a black border. Wait. Umm....

 

[am1899]

Ok, I see it now. 2 solid picks. 2 picks are rubbish. You asked.

 

[J011yroger]

[J011yroger]

Used my normal image hosting site, can y'all see it now?

J

 

[am1899]

I can see it.

 

[haqq777]

Yep see it now!

They didn't have 93P 18x20 in L3?

 

[Addxyz]

it's beautiful.... hit the button!

 

[J011yroger]

I got big hands.

[haqq777]

Cool. I was just asking because every other stick is L3 except for the 93P 18x20.

 

[am1899]

I’m actually dying to see what you say about the Clash....

 

[J011yroger]

Cool. I was just asking because every other stick is L3 except for the 93P 18x20.

My personal racquets are slightly smaller than 5/8.

[fundrazer]

Have fun Jman.

I've got some items on the to-demo list, but the weather here currently sucks.

 

[Anton]

J

Looking good!

I’d swap in Yonex 97 PRO over SV95...and I’m pretty sure you’ll hate Clash.

 

[taylor15]

Interested to see your feelings on the 93p in both patters since you previously (still?) played mids

 

[Dartagnan64]

Already did the 100p.

J

But not the 18x20.

 

[JOSHL]

This should now be the 2019 Jolly review thread FYI.

 

[McLovin]

Already did the 100p.

J

@J011yroger, can you update the first post of this thread with what you've already demoed? Was going to suggest a couple, but don't feel like scrolling through the previous 16 pages to see what you've been trying already.

[vsbabolat]

im interested in what @J011yroger has to say about the Vcore 95

 

[SpinToWin]

I don’t mind the clash as much as I thought I would. Interesting stick, but it’s begging for weight in the hoop I find. Feels like swinging a fly swatter at times which has me struggling to make clean contact consistently on a looser swing. If it’s strung up with the hybrid GET IT OUT. I find the poly/multi hybrid makes the frame really launchy and inconsistent. I have it strung up with Black Knight at 24kg and it feels much more appropriate from the two short hits I’ve had since.

Best area is the return hands down. Weirdly stable while very fast yet without the launchy nature of some other tweeners.

 

[topspn]

hmm...I played the camouflage PJ tour with 4g for a bit and couldn’t stand it. Felt no connection and super launchy. A total clash

Hm I’ve got the regular version and can’t say I share the problems. More disconnected than my PS for sure - but then what isn’t?

Hated it or maybe hate is a strong word No, it isn’t hated it

Yuge hands, believe me!

@J011yroger: We all know you’re going to put those demos to the test, bigly!

Did you try the tour version (heavier) or the regular version?

 

[roundiesee]

Great selection Jolly! How soon will you do the reviews?

When I get bored and they are all in stock.

Nah Pure Storm Limited is more connected for sure

Regular. A poster on this board was so kind to send me his tester after the TW playtest

Nice!

I playtested the Tour.

Not sure how exactly the 15g extra weight of the Tour is distributed (it is listed as 1 point more HL, so at least some is in butt/handle), but might be worth a hit

I’m going to hit one (a Tour, the regular felt like a very pricey MG Rad OS) and post.
