Hi ladies & gentlemen,

Can anyone here call out a few prices for Li-Ning N90 woods 1st generation? I am inquiring for a heavy racket from head to stiffness etc. Trying out badminton since I'm tennis player here. It would be like feather to hold a badminton racket:P

So far I heard the Li-Ning N90 Woods is the heaviest and stiffest?

Thank you...

Li-Ning N90 and Yonex VT80 is very head heavy racket, weight is 3U should be around 90g, or maybe you can Apacs traning racket, got 160g 180g 200g version. . .  flex.gif

Wonderful. Apacs training racket that weight 200g version should be a tough nut to crack. Sure will find out more about it.

Thanks a lot anyway. Li-Ning & Yonex should be very expensive as it is heavily used and market by top players around the world.

Asics Gel is not a bad choice for indoor sports. However more expensive than Apacs.

what is the most popular shoes??
looking for 1 good shoes.. especially that help me jumping...

Hello..

Generally speaking there are no shoes that will help us jump higher even back in those Chicago Bulls days. Michael Jordon quoted There are no magical shoes to make us jump higher.

The only way to jump higher is by training calves, thigh muscles. One good source for your help is Air Alert. Google up download the PDF if possible. People with thin or small calve can jump high. If you notice the NBA players their leg are small but upper body is broad and strong.

Hope this help you:)

Got myself a ProTech Classic Tour Gen2, head heavy racket, stringed at 26lbs... Now if only I could play more often...

Not sure what is the stiffness of the racket tho
But feels powerful during smash.

Is that a mid range racket? Heard it's not that bad, head heavy similar to AT900P. Yeah the more we play with proper technique the better we become.

Ya, some racket is stiff or medium stiff. Generate different flex and timing in smashes too:)

Can anyone share info bout characteristics of strings and types of strings tensions? Tqtq

Please visit badmintoncentral forum for all the queries.

I used BG65 for long durability and best repulsion is BG66 but cannot tolerate high tension. BG66 Maxima too. Gotta hit the sweet spot to get the most of it.

Yes. The difference is you. That topic is also quite subjective to talk about. This time you string she recommend and see you feel comfortable or not and the next time you re string then try vice versa. Find out which is more suitable and comfortable for you.
