3U net weight of racket is 85-89gm*
4U net weight of racket is 82-84gm*
5U net weight of racket is 78-81gm* (* approx)

add the string (3-5gm) & grip (2-8gm), you do the math.

General, 4U is user-friendly. 3U is little demand unless arm&wrist power are born within

Tension wise, you could scroll back page(s) to get some idea. Ziggy the Guru wrote some Facts there.

walau, i dont know tantrum 200 so heavy XD. mine 90-92g without string

Good la heavy got more mass can whack the bird harder

yaya, i could feel the power when i play just now. slightly hard to maneuver since i'm jumping from 85g to 91g XD

alamak dude..don't always put me on table la wei! me not guru la..>.<
the Guru is arc1414..NOT ziggy87

2u T200? what a beast

pity the birdie lolz

Wondering if any of you guys and girls uses more than 1 racquet. And if you do, are those the same type (same flexibility / string tension etc)?

somehow 1 of my friend like it coz it's heavy XD (a girl somemore)

Hello sifu, how is your prince racket?


then you also put arc1414 on the table. . .


Then she must be never meet some opponents with powerful smash one (e.g : ziggy87)

ziggy87 also use 2u racquet??

Ok la, Ziggy. Pardon me to tease you so badly, haha. You seems very informative & supportive in giving advices around frequently. I tabih you ler.

No wonder, T200 is super stiff shaft & head heavy. If high tension, arm will sore if not much power to hit. Its like "A moderate driver pushing a BMW is nice in view, but heck of energy being used"

Heavy is nice to use as in "solidity" feel, could it lasts you till 4-6th game without tiring off easily? thats a test.

CalvinSeak, your arm power so strong, wielding the LD racket sure no problem. But Fantasia isnt you mah.

Omage007, nice seeing you around. Im doing fine with Prince racket, its weight, mid-flex shaft, slight head heavy (another is even-balanced) are working well on me.

ziggy uses RSL Shiny Laser 9900 in 3U weight. Smashing pretty hard, & charming too. Need not to afraid of den.

Believe me, 2U isnt good for leisure player. It taxes energy.

the stiffness of T200 is almost same as my previous racquet ^^ tension i put 26lbs, using BG80. actually i dont expect it to be U2, my idea weight is U3 but since the seller give me somemore string nicely ady then no choice lor. yesterday play 2 hours, my arm not that pain, maybe because i'm not doing any strong smashing (coz i dont know XD). and i didnt play any game also

being informative and giving the right info are 2 VERY different things lol..

t200 is not very head heavy. just slightly. but really very stiff haha

4-6 games with 2u..sounds pro hahahahaha

calvin very strong oh..his smashing very hard to def. lucky not playing plastic birdies with him..if not i might get bruises everywhere XD

how u noe wat i'm using? stalkerrrr..lolz! kidding bro..i dun qualify to have a stalker
smashing pretty NOT hard and charming??? *scratch head*
but definitely no need to be afraid of me..backhand cannot reach baseline

Anyone have any experience with Apacs Stern 300?
