heyy ppl...i wanna ask would transition from aerogel 300 to the exo graphite 100 be tough?
im 2h backhand and like to spin the crap out of my fh.
tot i wanna get the new 4d 300 but im up against some friggin hard hitters. hard to deal with my current stick.
anyone tried can pls share your input on this racket.
thx in advance..
*
hey bro .. basically what i can tell you is that .. i 've the aerogel 300 and also the 4d300. have played the 4d300 non-tour and the tour version as well. we have them all here in our grp here. As you played the aerogel 300 .. you would know that aerogel 300 has very fast head movement (fast swing). well the graphite 100 has the same effect. Very very fast head swing due to the openess of the frame ( the holes - exo3 technology). thus making it very very spin friendly . Coupled with the stiff setting of the racquet i personally liked it very much . However i would say you must work a bit hard to get a hard shot. as it's quite low power and fashioned after a tour/ player's racquet. So you need to generate your own power. transition hard or not i think shudn't be an issue. Anyways don't get me wrong here i'm not promoting something that you think i'm getting rid off. it's the exact opposite. I already have one for myself and keeping that.

thx for your input bro. since you own one,
say ur doing defensive shot,ie blocking the ball with no backswing coz you are out of time;
is it stable?
with the 300..man, it gets punched back and my block goes off target,and give opponent another chance to kill.
ya and of course, im nt that fast and pro thats y have to be defensive often.
*
i wud say that it's quite a stiff racquet.. with the extra bridge in the center. As usual from a stiff racquet... it has the stability as what you get weilding a k6.1 90. and i must say i find backhand easier to position (target) compared to the more powerful PDRGT.. i wouldn't say i'm such a good player that i can give you the best answer to your Q.. but this is based on my limited experience of testings some f the more popular racquets around. for better answers go read up the review i posted in my selling thread. comes with the written review as well as the video review fr the playtesters of T/W.

in my opinion, no it shouldnt be a problem. its just the matter of how long do you need to get used to the racquet. provided that the difference between the racquets arent that much la. also, it depends on you yourself. different people have different preferences.
*
you are right ... it's just a matter of pref and some ppl get used to a certain racq faster than the other. even the best reviews abt racq can't trust .. as it may not suit you entirely .. so very subjective in the end. hence in US.. they get the privy of play testing the racq for 1mth .. here too bad .. we gotta commit and resale later if not ngam .. sad.gif

You can ask erybody who comes n play with us... chip, june, sunil, ckseong, .. pls back me up here.. do i contribute balls ? damn i think the most is me, kwailoh & chris and june also whenever he comes...

All the balls are fr us. chris especially leaves loads of balls n ask me to go sell so that we can recontribute it back to the grp. as mostly is me, kwailoh n chris coming up with balls. so pls chk ur facts and get it right b4 u make a bigger ass of urself here...
we go thru like 8-10 cans a week.. if we play full week.. so gosh .. do i need to spell it out to u or draw a picture how i got those balls ? it's no magic n it din fall fr the sky

and it's no secret.. i dun hide the fact i sold n used back the $$ to buy balls for ourselves...

Ork oh.... Its getting hot here!

But I have to agree with Yan because for the few times that I played with him and the gang, they were very generous with the balls especially Yan, Erik and Chris. Anyway, I'm more than happy to let Yan sell off my used tennis balls as a way of saying thank you for providing the courts and players FOC.

thanks bro for the support...
i try my best to being a good fren and a good host to all that is williing to come n play .. just social game or stroking .. it's a place to forge good frenship and a place to improve ourselves. So i do hope i lived up to erybgody 's xpectation ..

haha... no prob dude... business as usual brows.gif

i'm sure tawau u dun get a lot of apts or condos.. but i lived in one with a tennis facility. and it so happens that it's super under utilized and mostly our grp and maybe another family using. So most of the time the courts are available. (no bookings required) and 2 courts lagi tu..haha.. heaven.

Well sorry man for that .. i exploded..... was pushed too far and decided to push back HARD... anyways i have to agree with you as this is the last thiing i wanna do to our forum as i have been a strong advocate to keep this strictly tennis talk (lil' sidetrack no prob, but dun overdo it and no prostitution talk as we have minors here as well).. i wud be glad to oblige and just keep this STRICTLY tennis discussions as per our thread starter's FIRST postings :

"PLEASE STICK TO THE TOPIC , its about tennis, tennis gatherings, equipments etc..."

This match, if its 1 set tie break first to reach 7 points or advantage of 2 points wins. At least have 1 rematch match up, coz 1 set is a bit iffy.....loser choosing lah

The match MUST have umpire and linesman, coz we are talking about pride and bragging rights, lets not have the 1st point 1 foot inside the baseline, opponent call out.....then walk off the court lah, not sui leh like this, 1 week from now ahhh, let me see if I can make a excuse to go to KL, NO PROMISES!!!

hey bro Angel-ice,
sorry i forgotten to get back to you. tried your PM but dunno why kept on giving me "404 page" ..anyways the Exo3 graphite 100 already sold when it got so much attention from the hot debate on pricing yestrday. buyer confirmed and paid deposit already. So sorry can't do the exchange for you. But if you ever wanna buy it let me know i'll sort if for you and defnitely can get you a price better than rm400.00 (new). if not wait for my other exo3 graphite. mayb i'll get tired of it soon ? hehehe. though now i'll be keeping it and testing it at low tension 48lbs or so .. haven't go string it up yet coz still nursing my injured palm. so no mood to go string up with new strings ..
