hi,

Where is pertama mall? can tell me?

u can find MP series in all kind of places mah...



Carb 15 already an old standard racq... it is 1cm shorter, oval head.. if I m not wrong it is either a 2U or even maybe 1U racq...

U keep it to play single maybe still fine... for double..


YEs.. it is.. about RM110+

nearby sogo there..

Ok. First of all, if u r choosing a Yonex racket, it will be mostly heavy hear raket. As u play, you will will pressure and lack of wrist power. If you are those ppl that can make good and powerful smash, go for Yonex. If not, there are many alternative such as GOSEN, PRO ACE, APACS and the recent one that i am using is FISCHER. I own a Yonex Amortec 300 and MP 99 as well. But to me this FISCHER brand RAKET is juz wonderful. Not all place sell this brand as i think it is relatively new. But i think the Racket is cheap. I bought my FISCHER for only about RM 330 which is far cheaper than my MP 99 which cost me RM 600 lolx.

i want to get rid of my armortec 300 sp, who interseted, coz i just got armortec 900 power sp now, hahahha, damn this racquet sure are wicked, but its not so good at net play, the head is little heavy than other racquet, who need net play if u can kill the bird with ur smash, hahahha

Net play is equally important and as a good weapon. U might not have the opportunity to smash. Even if u smash hard, a simple block will put the shuttle in front of net and will force you to either lift or put a net shot. BTW, Amortec 300SP is a good raket but the head is heavy. Try to consider Amortec 300 if u want...

Amortec 300 is from what brand?

im finding a racquet too...but i dont know which to go...i need something in balance...means good in both defense and offense...and also light...budget around 150 to 190?
and also i heard the tension of the string play a important role too...i got one friend whose string tension (issit called tension? lol) is 29 and he had a hard time to smash well...well my bro tension is 23 and it smashing power is damm nice...

lastly...which string shud i go for...many shop offer yonex bg66...but i heard that it is very fine...good for smashing...but easily spoil...shud i go for any highrer like 67 or 68???

Actually, rackets doesn't influence your play weither its attack or defense. Head heavy rackets just creates the momentum for you to smash harder. This isn't neccesary for those with powerful wrist. And about the defence thingy, its the same thing. Light head rackets for those who aren't that strong and the opposite to gain the advantage.


My coach (head of the SBA[sarawak badminton association]) explained to me things about the racket tension not too long ago. Different people has different tension. There isn't such thing as a low tension string creating higher power. In fact, if you are a hard hitter using a low tension racket to smash.. you can actually break the string quite frequently. However, it does affect your control over the shuttle though.


REMEMBER! Different people has different needs of racket. You will only know that if you try. Different people has difference preferences.
The only thing important about a racket is the shaft quality. Like the string, there is the flexion of the shaft. Weak people should not use stiff rackets because the spring mechanism just won't work.
Preferably, a yonex racket with the ElasticTI or UltimumTI technology offers better power in your strokes. But I can't actually feel it unless I do a backhand clear. Thats all in my opinion lah.


PS: Never buy a fake Yonex racket. Better to use your money in clone brands instead.

If you have a good and strong wrist/shoulder.
can try MP33..its a quite hard racquet

is the wilson ncode n2 a good racket? it was rm300+ last time, now selling at rm190 included everything, its now replace by kfactor series which is around rm260 with free tshirt and pants.

i initially plan to buy n4, but it feels heavy when i swing it, so i go with n2

been using whip lite 600 by prince for some times now, to me it feels no power..

they also recomend me prince oversize titanium, they say quite a no of ppl looked for it, but i pass, smooth swing but some how its feels abit like my whip lite 600 , duno abt gameplay tho.

n2 is my main racquet... to me. it is very nice.. stiff n head heavy... very good clear in defend n baseline...

n2 consider a offensive racket.. if u like to smash, go for it.. but becareful while string.. not every shop know how to string the n2... cheer..

how about control? and yes im more into offensive.

190 is a good price to buy? ask three shops in puchong bandar puteri, and its abt there, the 1st shop carries n4 only and the last shop only carries n7 which swing heavily like n4. i think they are good with rackets, the guy told me to go yamchar 1st cos n2 needs more time to string, cos its different, hope tht is a good sign

shop name is AJ racket mart

Rm190 good bargain...

I believe the N2 is old stock. no more in the market...

the N2 are one of the best among the n-code series.. n2.. follow by n4.. n etc...

n1 are not available here....

n7,n8 is consider lower end model....

n2 stringing method are from top to bottom. compare to conventional racq from bottom to top... and u will see ur n2 have even stringing pattern compare to conventional racq .. the string are closer to each other in the edge of the racq... and in the clock position of 11,1,5,7.. u will notice ur racq are different to normal racq.... the hole in the position only allow 1 string to go through.. if someone string ur racq with 2 string there... ur racq gonna say byebye to u very soon.. be very careful...

cheer...

oh thx alot for the info, guess my decision is correct then.

but was told n2,4,7 price dun really differ tht much.

ok, i think they did the job correctly. place where the word is are all 1 string only, basically those with out the plastic thing (what you call them ah?)
and yep they are all even
