Yeah, I also saw the ArcSaber 008. Compared it to the Armortec 70 MG. The saber is a stiff shaft but less head heavy I think.

The BS10 and BS11 really caught my eye, especially the BS11 because it's more flexible than the BS10. But I'm wondering if I should spend that much on a racket.

I don't know any friends who us apacs rackets. Most of them use Yonex but the older versions so not much help to me.

get a grip on tantrum 200 and see if it suits u. its one of the most stable racket from apacs and hot selling. its around 250 or so.
well, if u wanna fork out more cash, then bs10 or bs 11 is not a bad choice either for ur style of playing. or yonex ti-10?

Hmm, if I can I'd definitely try out the Tantrum and the Lethal 70 too. I read that the TI-10 is very stiff and might be too stiff for me. I focus more on touch and control and not much on power so I want to improve that area of my game.

Of the lot, the best looking ones have to be the Armortec series.

if you're playing often, why not spend a bit more on a higher quality piece. you'll be spending more quality time with it

whoever also you posion them with T200

if you're afraid that a racket might be too stiff for you, you can skip the T200 and L70 already. they're both stiff rackets and for all out attacking.
if you want more control, maybe can consider lower end Tantrums like the 160 etc. they are less stiff than T200 for sure. and of course, cheaper

no one recommends the edgesaber Z??


well im using the edgesaber Z, i wanted it to be a training racquet, but i grew to love it ,swing speed is fast with slightly head heavy balance and allows quick reaction.Racquet is also slightly longer than most racquets around i noticed.

in exchange, SLIGHTLY narrower frame (very slight)

but its for me, im not sure about you, but do consider this weapon

if it copies the ArcZ completely in design, it should be quite powerful
it is meant to have a faster swing due to the thinner frame profile
the frame is claimed to be a hybrid between the old oval shape and isometric shape..so it has a smaller sweetspot
it's harder to master and play with

is your unit a 4u? i think all clones are 4u

yes its a 4U, also a thinner shaft and longer, but stiff ,(some says it will get more flex when its longer, but they label it stiff AFTER it is put long, so its LONG ... and stiff )


i havent tried the arcZ , but the clone is a pretty a good racquet, its quite head heavy but the overall racquet is lighter,frame is a hybrid ,the width is slightly narrower with the isometric shape in the upper region

how much is arcZ?
if cheap, i wanna buy just for fun. haha

err from siajolene,its about RM120 + - , with yonex string

but wtfoo ( i think its his name) is selling an edgesaber Z slayer also.

Yes, I am selling my Apacs Edge Saber...but, not slayer, spark. Dont ask me what is the different between slayer and spark, I don't know.

ArcZ is more than RM600
ESZ is around Rm100

they are different in feeling, weight, tech used to built it
similar in design and of course, paint

Sorry, correction, I mean different between Apacs Edge Slayer and Apacs Edge Spark

hahaha... =.= around rm100 its ok gua. can buy for test run.

The Yonex Muscle Power 99 is superb, but so is the price. Are there any alternative rackets that performs just as good as the MP99 but at a much more affordable price? Appreciate the advice smile.gif

i bought Zslash for RM101

dear lyn-tian, wanna ask if yonex carbonex 21 worth to get fr rm200+30 for bg66 string & t-shirt. new bie here just want to start paying badminton.

oh lol
i guess they are pretty much the same
except slayer is from sg i think while spark is from malaysia
i heard the slayer plays better..less vibbbraaatttiiiooonn
seriously, there's soooo many versions of ESZ..the spark, slayer and rapier

sibugichai from BC?
