so it becomes head heavy, more attack force ! Can be bought in tennis pro shop. Stick onto handle makes head lighter, but increase the whole racket weight. If lead tape is heavy burden, try hockey white tape, copy LD's AT700 style.

Any further details im not very well into, we could seek our dear Badminton IT-Guru advice, Mr.Ziggy

You get cheesed-off

It will be under-playability, hard to maneuver, tired up fast & even might strained on wrist.

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 flex.gif 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.

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.

Wow, Im totally lost ! What you guys discussing about ? Gotta chase up 11pages, sweat* Good to hear so many activities here, I have been carried away to Razer, HAF, OCZ, XFX etc etc, then play CS, SC & WoW lately, what is yonex li-ning victor apacs, neva heard of ler. Haha, enough joke here.

Deng~ now's my turn on the table sweat.gif (boh bian ler, no chair to sit tongue.gif ) Nothing much to update, still using faithful Prince TT2200 & 2500, my dream is Oversize Premier Blue. Me no sifu ler, just giving my humble kind opinion & experiences.

Dead(thick) skin built up at palm (below finger): I believe is hard gripping , overgrip is super thin (not much cushioning) & rough hard surface of towel grip (if any). No cream could soften the skin unless stop playing for 3-4months (optional fast & easy: is dip palm in warm water so the dead skin can be peeled easily, then apply lotion cream). Mild pain while wrist stretch (during warm up) could be stiffed muscle(s) & over-stretched in sudden, old injury(?) &... . Racket..... duno where to start. You guys provided so many info & details, left me nothing to fill in cry.gif

My rule of thumb in order: (I guess this issue is repeat again)
(1) Player: Type of game play (Attack, Defense, Control, Overall)
(2) Player: Arm power or Wrist power
(3) Racket: (a) Weight; (b) Shaft stiffness; © Balance Point - Head Heavy, Even-Balanced & Head Light: (d) Grip Size
(4) Budget
(5) Brand & range model in consideration to fit the above data.

Will give my best for you guys of rackets opinion.

CS time

should ask whether convenient to speak over the phone. Counter could mean she's a cashier & handle customers at same time.

Mostly traders dont entertain much on the phone unless there's a reason or know each other well. because many ppl called in to ask price and that was it. They arent customer service center who just sits at the desk & entertain customers on the phone.

best is to visit them.

yes. accurate.
it's a very good racket but lack a bit of power IMO.
it should be due to the 4u lightweight.
if you can handle it, stringing it at high tension will be a plus since it will generate more power IMO.
some lead tape at the frame should give more power.

Thanks sifu, great racketpedia ! Will look into this option once I discard one of my racket 1st....hehehe

boom boom sound gotta seek chrisling (21 lbs) & ziggy (28 lbs) experience. Only them can create such effects, as far as I recall.

Or eat Roti Bomb b4 game, then try on court later.

Definitely hit to sweet spot could get the max sound effect, it's like playing drum. Imagine "-" is the shuttle while "I" is the head frame. The max effect is at " -I ", any of these " >I " considers slice/chop, & not able to create max sound. Low pitch normally occurs to thick gauge BG65 at 20-24 lbs, so does high pitch with thin gauge higher tension. Still not enough? stick 5cm cellophane tape strip across at bottom 1st row cross. This definitely loud, but the sound isnt natural & looks stupid, haha !

How many times can we shout for every smashing, I might laughing out loud if keep on doing that. Its good you still can hit at the frame, while mine always bocor 1, cant take a shuttle properly, so cacat.

I hardly take roti bomb, only half boiled eggs. End up my skills always tak masak & eat telur markah on most games. So pathetic....................*sigh*

Oh, that boom boom guy is still around. Backhand macam taufik wor, hahaha
