im considering on purchasing a AT 700, can someone recommend me a durable string that will last long and has good power/sound when smashing, i was thinking.. bg 65,66 or 80. and what grip size?? 4UG5.. is that the most common?.. all ATs come in 4U..

NBG98 :D the greatest power among YY string and have great durability & sound...
4U?....in my country all YY come in 2U(not all type) and 3U.....never see 4U :(

Most high end Yonex racquets (AT900 P/T, ARC10) only come in 4U in the UK for some reason......

NBG95 or NBG98 will do fine

Out of the ones you mentioned 80 would be good.
But some people find that the NBG 95 feels abit slippery so they cant control the bird aswell.

Windsor is in Canada...unless it's a different Windsor. Your grip size will vary depending on your hand. For power and durability, you can try NBG95 or BG80.

PS, weren't you looking for a NS8000? That's completely different than the AT700

Most high end Yonex racquets (AT900 P/T, ARC10) only come in 4U in the UK for some reason......
ARC10 doesn't come in 4U....lightest 3U.

Daisuke, you'd better come read this thread again...

BG65 all the way baby

hrmm yea sry i meant 3U.. everyone is saying the NBG95.. it has good durable but does it pack a punch for smashing and sound?/// power

have you ever thought of looking here (http://www.badmintoncentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=38509)? Dinkalots reviews are excellent. there is no reason not to look for it. it even has NBG 95

NBG98 :D the greatest power among YY string and have great durability & sound...
4U?....in my country all YY come in 2U(not all type) and 3U.....never see 4U :(

you are 99% correct.
but last time when I broke my at700 they exchange me with 4U.
So there is 4U racket in Indonesia but not very common

my last memory of AT700 is going good with bg66. Thus nbg98 can do also.

nbg98 all the way for power......

hey guys, I just got brand new AT700 old color.
Couldn't wait to test it.
hm.... what would be the string.
I have bg65P, I might use this string.

heh, need to be patient, and read what is being said.....

just curious, anyone here ever had an AT900P/T 4U, and a AT700 Old 3U? im probably getting a AT700 Old, but i can only get it in 3U, i currently use AT900 in 4U, =/, im worried that it'll be too heavy, anyone can compare this for me? =X

once upon a time, there was a guy who tried countless number of rackets. At last, he settled for AT900P 3UG4 and AT700 3UG4 (old version). After he played 700 continuously for a week, he found 900P too light and too stiff to swing, somewhat exhausting to his arm. Then the day came, the string on 900 broke. So he switched to 700, then he found it inhumanly heavy to maneuver, but he coped with and moved on. Eventually the string on 700 broke, then he switched back to 900P, guess what? that **** is too tiring for him to swing again.

AT700 is the most heavy-headed racquet in Armortec series. It is intended for hard hitters. If you really want to gain benefit from it, I would suggest the 3U version. But warning, you´ll need some time to get familiar with it.

Concerning the grip size, it depends on your wrist. But for AT700, it plays a major role since the bigger grip size, G3 will reduce the effect of the heavy headness. If you choose 3UG5 (I´m not sure if there is any), you will feel that you´re swinging a hammer.

As for the string, I would suggest BG 65Ti, good for durability and it is inteded for offensive players. I think it´s cheaper that BG80.
