try apacs lethal light 1.1 or wilson k-lite.. bg66 at 26-28lbs.. (offensive) or NBG98 26-28lbs (deffensive)..
just from my personal experience..

yeah haha I agree with u, stringers will warn the customers first if they wanna go beyond rec tension... perhaps can go higher with a NS9900 / Voltric 70

all new yonex high end rackets can go high tension
but i heard VT70 is..slightly fragile

any good shoes anyone can recommend? budget probably around rm100 liek that. I just went to al-ikhsan saw nike court shoes selling around rm179, then my fren got an adidas court shoes for rm149, seems tempting >< How does it compare to yonex one? Seems liek yonex got more technology, but adidas and nike got brand reputation lolz, summore can wear walk walk also can because of the design.

Added on November 15, 2010, 3:51 pmI cant rec on the shoes, as for the AT70 MG, it's a good racket, medium stiffness, heavy head, smash well, drives well but defense not so responsive...

so it is more an attacking racquet? I normally play doubles, i scare if defensive not too good, then it's hard lolz, unless i can improve my smash until 1 extend that my opponent hardly can return shot lolz.

But then, the more concerned for me is getting a shoes 1st, because my current line7 the sole alread worn out zzz.. maybe gonna try adidas or nike out 1st, because i dont know where to try yonex one lolz.

Pertama complex a lot.
Those shop selling racket equipment also got sell.

e-sports? they are the biggest money sucking badminton shop in subang jaya area here.

an apacs that can be bought online in lyn here for RM56 is sold RM69.90 there, even for the shop in cheras perdana they also sell it RM56 - RM60 only

and other places sells AT70 for RM200 + - , and theirs is RM219, and very very lousy customer service

Thanks for the info.
Then, what do you think about the shops in Pertama Complex?

sadly speaking i am at penang currently... are those yonex shoes durable compared to nike or adidas one? Because i have a nike sneakers i bought it 4years ago and the grip is still intact. used it on tar road mostly because walking to school.

well as for pertama complex im not very sure, but i can recommend you another guy, he is more major in stringing tho,but he does have some good models around occasionally , u can try contacting him here and ask for "guidance"

Mike (My1 sports) - 016-3121223 , his shop is in asia cafe ss15 , close to e-sports

Any1 can recommend me racquet that price below rm200 with bag and re-string ready... do some power smashes but mostly defending

SS15 = Subang Jaya or PJ?

subang

i searched back and alot of ppl talking about asics shoes is kinda good, how does it fares with yonex shoes? SHB-85mx is like rm120, while asics range from rm160-200+. The think is, i dont know how yonex power cushion feels, but i have wore asics running shoes before and seriously, my feet doesnt pain after wearing it compared to those power shoes, so i highly rate asics shoes tho i dont really like the design

Ben, it all depends on ur budget, purpose and whether u like the design...good quality Yonex shoes cost RM250 to above RM300 (street price / after discount) However, they also produce the Ultima range which is a lower end range (without Power Cushion)

How Power Cushion feels? well very comfortable if you like to jump a lot in a game, my legs dun feel painful after my sessions. Many years ago I wore Nike futsal shoes for badminton, then I switched to SHB-100 with Power Cushion. Now I'm wearing SHB-101 LTD and never look back ever since

My suggestion is dun wear running shoes during badminton game, cos the sole is wider and not suitable for badminton. Get a pair of dedicated badminton shoes, in which u ONLY wear in court. dun wear for jalan jalan / jogging to prevent damaging the sole.

Cheers

Added on November 16, 2010, 11:17 amWith ur budget you might be able to get NS800, or maybe if u meet a nice shop owner, he'll share with you which racket suits you. but all words and no action is kinda hard to justify whether the racket is for you or not, so it all comes down to 3 main types, Head heavy (offensive), balanced, and head light (defensive), pick one and go try

In ur case (mostly defending) I think head light rackets is for u, as they are more responsive, however u need to have a faster swing (instead of just brute strength) to generate a powerful smash..

Oh, but then i see the Yonex Ultima 85 Pro should have power cushion those right? I dont know the eaxct coding of this, but i once google the shoes and it came out from yonex site that the shoes is having power cushion tech, just lack the lateral claw thingy. I saw some nike multicourt shoes, kinda tempting too, and my friend bought and adidas indoor shoes, also looking good as well, gonna try them today and see how it goes.

Hmm not to be confused with SHB 85 as seen in the official Yonex website, Ultima looks the same, but in fact it's a diferent range already but anyway happy shopping

oh.. then shb-85 normally cost how much?
