    powerball builds up your muscles in your arm and wrist if you do certain motions with the powerball.

    Starting from right to left:
    1. Victor Bravesword 08 - GR Code
    2. Yonex Arcsaber 10 - UK Code
    3. Panda Power Trinity
    4. Apacs Tantrum 200
    5. Apacs Lethal 60
    6. Browning Platinum Nano 75
    7. Browning StealthTI

    The Victor Bravesword 08 & Yonex Arcsaber 10 have insulation tape on head to make them slightly head heavier than before.

    I've recently got the L60. Needs a bit more testing before I can submit that opinion. The T200 is great. I will test the L60 and submit comparision in the next few days. From initial few shots (before strings broke), the L60 feels head heavier and stiffer than the T200. Will submit my results in a few days.

    Pemuda's collection

    Since I am on leave today and have the whole day free, allow me to show you lot my racquets. ;)

    But before I do so, I must say badminton is not my 1st love. I prefer football and football to me is way ahead of badminton. I would rate my badminton skills as decent i.e. can cari makan but not great like some of you lot here. Badminton is more like a social activity for me. I enjoy the game but gotta watch myself as my right ankle is weak. Anyway, I only play once in a blue moon.

    Ok from the pic, you can see I dont really have a bag like most of you. I just have this tiny racquet bag (that can take 2 racquets) and I keep the rest of my stuff in a plastic bag. I keep telling myself to get a decent bag but just cant seem to drag myself to do it.

    As for my racquets, mine are just of average range. Its not the equipment but your technique, skills, stamina ...and well your good looks.

    My racquets are MP77, MP44, Fleet Power NP 5500 (this is a just for fun racquet, got it for RM100), Finex Infinity 9000 and Apacs Visible Hollow 1800.
    I dont really have a favourite because like I said badminton to me is just a social game.

    Well, I never had any formal training in badminton before. It was just me picking up a racquet and swinging it around.

    My footwork? Can can lah.

    given the weak ankle, surely football is more of a risk than badminton.
    but then passion is passion i guess.

    Nothing can beat these pics :)
    Football is life to me, weak ankle or no. Badminton is a social outing.

    The boots pics aside, I am in all 3 pics. And no I am not that bald headed chap. He was our captain, one mean and tough player who took no prisoners.

    .... since this a thread about racquets, I think I may as well add some lines about racquets as I dont want Sheriff Oldhand to come after me with a posse.

    I keep my all my racquets in my room. I normally have em' strung around 25-28lbs. :p
