Guys,

While we are discussing, why not we come up with a compilation on what we all think on would be the best rackets + String + tension for the following purposes:

1.> Best Smash =
2.> Best Control =
3.> Best Offense =
4.> Best Defense =
5.> Best All Rounder =

Example : Best Smash = Arcsaber Z Slash + BG 80 + 24lbs.

Would be great for new comers & experience people to look at and think about.
*
string and tension is very subjective.
some will say BG66/80 is the best! but i might say NO, it's Zymax 67 or VS-850.
no point dude.

rackets on the other hand is a slightly different matter tongue.gif

for me:

1.> Best Smash = Victor SW35/ Yonex AT900P
2.> Best Control = Yonex NS9900?
3.> Best Offense = no comment
4.> Best Defense = headlight rackets
5.> Best All Rounder = Yonex AS series since they're well balanced rackets

yea i know, it's like not answering the questions laugh.gif blush.gif
i have low experience with rackets unsure.gif

At internet info is 295,bt i dun it is 295,mayb arn 310..


Added on August 31, 2010, 10:40 am
Ti 99 jus d technology diff to sw 35..coz sw is using wave system..bt material almost same,and also didnt use by international player..
*
oic..kk's website say it's 290 which is even less than my ATT99
i always felt it's impossible but never had a real SW35 to measure

like i said, ATT99 is an old model.
all the wave and sword design are for new models..

victor claims that the wave will generate faster swing..really?

Coz at bottom side frm 4 oclock to 8 oclck position is aerodynamic..so it provide more faster swing..bt d wave technology so good..can handle d string strenght..

what's the difference between SW and BS wave position?
only 4 and 8 oclock for SW and whole inner frame for BS?

any racket from victor equivalent to yonex AT700?
many say AT700 not durable.
mostly i playing double and my racket strung at 26-28 lbs.

wa AT700 for doubles..u must be a 'beast' too..powerful 'beast' using a 'beast' racket tongue.gif

QUOTE(alan kc @ Sep 1 2010, 12:45 PM)
Yonex all racket also cant handle high tension,if victor,u can try sw 35 or bs10 or spiral 21.
*
yonex racket can't handle high tension??? blink.gif

i'm not sure how stiff is AT700 but the head heaviness should be similar to SW35.
spira21 is less stiff than SW35

most of the international player uses BG66 during competitions. it's proven from photos taken by some people at the stringing booth. LCW BG66 30lbs. TBH BG66 28lbs. that was a year or so ago. now i duno.

laser 9900 is rated as stiff. i feel it's stiff too. slightly more flexy compared to ATT99.
laser 9900 is around Rm260 without string and grip. it's also very shiny due to the chrome paint rclxms.gif

RM200 for the shoes ? I normally use RM20 or RM30 sports shoe but those shoe make me feel pain. So wanna buy a good one  blush.gif  , last week I only bought a badminton shoes at SS24 Taman Megah there,the shop name called ProX wo , RM 31.90 for a 38 size short,lol
I saw li ning brand drool.gif , lin dan !

can go for some Yonex entry level shoes. their entry level rackets might not be that good but their entry level shoes are quite okay. my yonex entry level shoe is still serving me good after around 9 months of usage. still in good condition despite me being quite heavy (85kg). still have good grip.

QUOTE(alan kc @ Sep 4 2010, 12:29 AM)
If ur budget arn 200 above go for victor..if 400 above lining..if 80 go for apacs,fleet,ace power.

asics is also a good brand. their Gel series are around RM300 i think.

QUOTE(0168257061 @ Sep 4 2010, 01:32 AM)
today go restring my yy mp66 , shopkeeper told me unable to get 22ibs above coz the upper part of my racket shows cracking edi. ended up use 21ibs.

I got one question, why those apacs racket can up to 30ibs while only for rm1xx
but yy racket rm7xx website suggest max also 27ibs.
does the apacs rm1xx frame really can up to 30ibs ?

hope i got some feedback. been playing badminton for year but never get the answer sweat.gif
*
if already crack, time to get a new racket. even string at low tension, after few restringings, it will eventually break.

yes, apacs racket can really string up to 30lbs.
actually yonex rackets can go wayyyy beyond 27lbs. 27lbs is only a warranty for themselves.
my below RM100 apacs clone series had been strung at 28lbs for quite some while.
used for hard smashing. no crack what so ever.

Yonex entry shoe ahh ?  hmm.gif  , look great wo btw I'm 89kg. Abit muscular and I just have a loook at my racket.

Something written there,  let me write all and see everyone can help me that I'm using the correct racket or not.

Nanoforce 9000 , Type S , 86-899g , 290 +- 5mm , MIDFLEX , RST 30 LBS < -- what it mean ?
*
it's a clone of Yonex's Nanospeed 9000-S. the specs are different i think
YY's NS series are head light. what about this Impact? 290 seems kinda head heavy.
RST should be the max string tension..cant figure what the R stands for

I don't know...but seems quite number of sellers out of stock for this model. Even if those who have, very limited quantity, maybe left one or two only.

Is it me only that when I found a racquet that I comfortable with, I will stick with it, broken, I will try to source for the same again,  even if it obsolete model and got new, better technology model (as claimed by manufacturer). Therefore, nowadays, I prefer to ask the seller, I bought one first, if I find it nice, if I bought few more, do I get special discount or not.

That's why I found it very hard to buy new racquet, you cannot really test it out before buying, you buy based on what the seller claim, and once u bought, you got to stick with it even you found out that it not suit you, at least until it broke or sold it off (at loss).
*
definitely agree
even sometimes if a friend has it, not all is willing to lend

I think, maybe the shopowner should sell you at full price, after 1 week, if you dislike, then, you return back, they refund back 80% of the amount you paid, provided the racquet still in good condition. So, no risk to customer runaway. If customer dislike, they can still sell it off, even at cheaper price.

Wish there is more shop offer such trade in. Bangi is bit too far for me to pay them a visit.

Gosen racquet now hard to find oledi...although no doubt it a good brand. My friend used to have one. I tried it before, quite nice.
