Lets look outside of the commonly popular brands of Yonex, Victor & LiNing. Name your 5 top rackets that you either have or would love to have other than the above 3 brands. Pls list them in order of priority. Thanks a lot.
1. Panda Power Revelation: all woven, in the works ........2. RSL X5 Silver: I keep hearing good reviews about it.
Agree with you, I'm looking to buy Flypower Tornado 900 & Warrior 7 too. Hi wuzent, any particular models there u've tried or wish to own in future?
1. Forza Titanium 550 N-Forze VS (2009-2010) 2. Babolat X-Feel Blast (2010) 3. Kason TSF 300Ti (2011) 4. Head Power Helix 10000 YouTek (2011) 5. Forza CNT-Power 9900 VS (2011-2012)
well I don't own a YY, victor or lining. The following is all I have. They are in the order that I like them 1) Sotx woven 8a - yonex BG80 2) Wilson K-lite - victor vs850 3) Carlton powerflo BR - yonex BG80 4) RSL m11 600 (guess I don't like playing with head heavy balanced rackets) - RSL TN680
i had an apacs stern 200 before(broken) and finnex titanium 200 (my favorites racket). kason tsf 300d is a good racket also, i don't have it but i had heard a good review from an uncle. fleet high end racket also have good performances which equivalent with victor. rsl 's low end racket also can give a good performance.
If it is yours too, join the club! However, the list would be different with LN, YY, And V included. Again, it is personal and for player that can handle stiff to very stiff head heavy 3U to 2U racquets.
I have Yonex VT80 and Victor MX80. I want to get the Li-Ning N90. As for other brands to expand my collection (I prefer head heavy and stiff)... 1. RSL X5 Silver --- I've been eyeing this as a possible back-up racket 2. Black Knight Max-Force 970 --- Want to have Canada's brand racket 3. Forza Kevlar CNT-Power 10000S --- Good brand and new-ish racket 4. Panda Power Revalations --- It seems to have the specs I want 5. Gosen Ryoga Shiden --- Seems OK but has an oval head. I hope to get these rackets next year.
I'd actually high hope for the Enigma 900 too but cos read your review on it & u mentioned "Overall I feel that the Flypower Enigma 900 is a slightly more demanding racket suitable for upper intermediate player". Thus worry I can't handle it as much so going for the other 2 models instead...
Carlton Vapour Trail Tour is probably the one racket I still wish was in my bag. Non-Mainstream rackets I really want to try are the Fleets.
These are the few non YY Victor and LN rackets that I got: 1. Flypower - Warrior 8 (Anyone looking for genuine YY Victor LN quality at a fraction of price? Flypower is the answer) 2. Carlton - Vapour Trail Tour (Another superb design by Carlton, will meet the requirement for top level) 3. Wilson - Vertex BLX (Much more solid than all previous Wilson racket, I like it very much) 4. Apacs - Lethal Light 1.10 (Delightful defensive racket, very easy to manouver and fair amount of power when strung at high tension) 5. Flypower - Vigor 700 (Its still unstrung in my bag, I believe it can top Warrior 8 for quality as I can see it has smaller woven pattern)
