hey,
my gf is quite good at badminton,she has insisted on playing for nearly 5 years.i want to give her a pleasantly surprised on her birthday.so everybody, please give me some advice ,thanks!

Lucky you.

I keep dragging my wife and daughter top the gym but they dont take to badminton which means I end up playing while looking at the clock all the time. I need to get home to them within a certain time in order to avoid unpleasantness at home.

On you point. i think Wilson N85L will be a good choice. Excellent for drops and placements rather than power shooting. Ideal for lady enthusiasts.

i'd recommend against the ti7 light, its waaayy too heavy light and u need a very quick wrist and swing to play with it

I use a Ti-7 (Mesh) and I like it with the Yonex BG-65 strings at 22 lbs

If he played that long, I would recommend something more advance. I have been playing Ti-7 (Mesh) and I feel it's limiting compare to other racquets I tried (it's so poor against the Amortec 700 and Ti-10, you can actually feel teh difference).

I'm looking for a Ti-10, but hard to get. I like the Ti-7 Mesh, but like I said, the newer racquets makes my racquet feel limited.

some rackets i cant seem to do well with it, ti-7/light is one of them :o

In china ,ti-10 is quite attainable,just look at"http://www.bbesports.com/English/racket_ti.htm",if you would like to pay both the price and air-express fee.

What racket ur gf is using now? Iso vs. Oval? Long vs. Regular? Stiff vs. flex? Head light vs head heavy?

If her current racket is similar to Ti-7 light, and she's doing well with it, then, it will be a good buy. ;)

ur gf play doublt or single??? if double then i think at800de or mp99 more suitable and more right for her if she been playing for almost 5 years. if single then at700 is the right choice:D :p

really Thanks !

My gf now uses ti-5 3u g5,feels well in single play! but i want to give she somewhat surprise on her birthday, you know,a good racket will be a great present to whom that really interested in playing badminton.

at700 is indeed a good racket, but i think she can not fit the heavy head design.at 800 is just the one i like ,and i won't buy 2 same rackets.

The colour of Ti 7 light is too dull, no good for girls :D .

Think about the AR50jp, Pink and Light Blue, good girlish colours.

Most important, what is her current racket and is this racket suit her??

Hmmm... I can't remember whether I ever demoed a Ti5 before. If possible, maybe u can do the demo for her, as it suppose to be a surprise gift. Borrow her Ti-5, take some swing, then, go to the store to test Ti-7 light (head light for sure). If u feel both feel quite similar, then, it's the one. Personally, I believe ti-7 light is an easy racket to get adopted to, unless there are huge difference in between 2 rackets.

You are a great bf, lucky her. :p

Hmm, I live in the US, and I don't have much option BUT shiping. A 16 year old kid can't really do much even if they have the money :|

If u talking about sliver/red, I believe that's Ti-7, not Ti-7 light. I believe Ti-7 light being out of US market for quite a while already? :rolleyes:

I just looked at my racquet and It's a Ti-7 Mesh, should be a really old one. It's gray and silver and very little blue and black.

Today production of Ti-7 is the Ti-7 Light right? It's Blue and Red?

BTW- my Ti-7 is the original, the first generartion I guess. The new Ti-7 Mesh is red, the original is grayish blue. Not as blue as the Ti-7 Light though

You are very right. I just strung an old Ti-7 mesh for a local player, it's kinda a mixture of blue/white/gray, etc.
