Ugh! I have been searching online for reputable webstores that carry CAB22. Found only a few that has it in stock. Two of them ignored my email request... the last one (LuxisSportNet) has CAB22 CN and CAB22 LONG SP. Can't get used to LONG racquets while CN version is really expensive and I am not worthy of using such exquisite quality. Dave, sorry to say... but I think I may have to order from Lee's if they still have it. Looking on the bright side, at least the TW version is regular length and shipping's cheaper. PS: Hmm... Leesbadminton.com is down.
It's ".ca" not ".com" http://www.leesbadminton.ca/Shopping/Shopping.html From their inventory, they have a Cab22 Tour .... wonder if this is the same as a Cab22 plain? Give them a call to find out if their inventory's current or not. What happened to your plans of ordering one from BBE? -dave
Well, BBE was one of the stores that ignored my email... from what I heard, they got enough business catering to local demand. So, yeah... I will give Lee's a try. Are you going to order CAB20 soon? Cool! Thanks! I was using the old link from my saved list.
Well, BBE's spamblocker is too restricted. You have to send the emails in unicodes or your emails might be blocked.
Oh, I forgot to mention, if the email length is too long, it will be blocked,too (I have gone through all kinds of testing already)
I checked out the LuxisSportNet link. I'm really tempted to get to get a Cab20 CN ... but I can't seem to specify the weight (U, 2U etc) there. I'll probably wait another month or so before I even think of getting another racket -dave
Geez! How long is too long?! I emailed both their addies using Outlook Express... can't get any simpler than that.
One step closer to reality... Just got a reply from BBE after I emailed their other email addy. Dave... check your pm.
What a wonderful experience ... So cappy75 gets his Cab22, and I'm there for his first trials with that racket. HALF-COURT GALORE!!!! HAhahahahahahahahaha ... I almost feel sorry watching the gifts raining down for the opponents. Of course, it didn't help with me yelling out "You're not worthy!" at each out-of-position return Sorry cappy ... I'll treat you to a Coke or something next time! -dave
this post may come late but from memory, cab22 (or cab20 power) comes in regular length, 2u and 3U only
Actually, CAB22 comes in LONG as well. I inquired at Luxis Sportnet and checked out their online inventory list. They got CAB22 LONG CNs. Kinda weird to encounter that. I didn't go for them cuz they're really expensive and of the LONG version.
Don't worry Cappy, I'll be joining you soon on the oval re-acclimatization soon when my Cab 20 arrives. We can be the half court freebie pair at Collingwood (for a short while only of course). Then the rain of terror hopefully will be coming from our side.
Hey Dave, Yeah, I was wondering about that too. I was doing really well with your CAB22(3U) before, but the 2U version took me for a loop. Dude, I guess you should have practice with your 'half-court smash' playing with me. Wowza, no other racquet demand so much of me than the CAB22(2U). It didn't help my cause that I got a nagging blister in my racquet hand interrupting my gripping. But it wasn't so bad though, all in all, I did alright in my games. *Sigh* Guess I just have to work on my timing again.
cappy, you were warned, it is not an easy racket to use! btw, what string and tension did you settle on?
i used to used TI-10./.. owned two of them...... lasted me 1 month each... after that i switch to cab-21.... and i feel that oval is nicer to play with..... somehow...someway... oval feels nicer...
