    Puppysport is legit. Why would i recommend a website that sells fake rackets?

    sorrry, i'm just a bit paranoid buying things online since you can't see it in person
    oh, the woven 12A on puppy sport is 1 cm shorter than teh woven 12 SE on ibuysports. will that 1cm make a difference?

    Also if you like the 800 def so much you should buy a couple of them before they get really hard to find

    @bobbinbette
    Have you bought woven12?
    How does it compare with AT800DE, in terms of smashing power and defensive ability?

    thanks for your info.

    @bobbinhette
    from a scale of 1 to 9, what is your judgment for AT800DF (smash power and defensive ability)?
    How about your new racket?

    thanks again for your info

    900T should come closest but an used 800de is softer than a new 900T. I currently uses 2 800de and 1 900T. If u wanna a changeover, try ns7000 or ns9000s.

    thanks everyone. no i don't think US stores carry 800df n e more. i checked a lot of places.

    to ironhide. i didn't get the sotx 12 on dinkalot's suggestion so i got the LX858 instead. in terms of the AT800df though, it's got great potential for power, i'd give it between a 7 and an 8/10 in terms of power, and defensive capabilities is high as well. it's easy to swing and feels like it's leading my hand to the shuttle ;). but unfortunately it's out of production here =[.

    i have yet to try the LX858 (i'm in AR right now and have no where to play). but i'll try it soon.

    mmm, i think 'ill also give my friend's NS7k and 9ks a try when i head back to SJ. thanks cooler =]
