i am in manila (philippines) right now and i'll be going home this weekend. so i need your advise asap! anyone tried dunlop aerogel and biomimetic rackets? how are they? any particular model that stands out? i am an intermediate player. but i'm not so strong. and i don't have very good technique when it comes to clears (baseline to baseline shots). thanks!
This is my racket I use now....Dunlop biomimetic: My comment for this racket is good for smash n control. Head a bit havy good for smash...this racket also good for defensive...believe it..if u looking for racket can play for atacking and defend this is what you looking for...I use string Yonex BG66 Ultamax with this can give more power when your smash...I also recommend this racket for my friend...the feedback is good...now i start selling this racket to who accept my advice...this racket suitable for intermadiate player....
http://www.dlpthailand.com/index.php?mo=30&cid=139168 the website is in thai. However, if you go into each individual racket. At the bottom of each one there is a pic showing the specs. ie weight, stiffness and balance.
oh i'm sorry i forgot. well, i am not a very strong hitter. for a relatively "weak" hitter, i like the racket. adjusting to this new racket is very easy. actually, when i play, i alternately use 2 or 3 different rackets. in a week i probably use 5 different rackets. my reason for this is i don't want to be "familiar" with only one racket. in case my racket breaks during friendly club tourneys, then i won't worry about having to settle with another racket that i'm not familiar with. back to racket, i should say clear - 8 smash - 7.5 drop - 8.5 maneuverability - 8.5 adjustment period - 9 but that's just me. so i'm not sure how is it for others. =)
The racket states that is headlight, but you mentioned that it is a slight bit head heavy.... i am a bit confused right now.. I have been looking at the same racket that you have for months and i think the designs are really great.. I dont know how it plays though... so i really would like to try the racket out before i purchase it..
Hi Blurry D, I have that racquet for sale, i bought the ultimate and elite. I find the elite a bit too light for my liking and keeping the ultimate. If u are interested drop me a buzz, i play on Monday and Fridays at NVBA, if u would like to take a few shots with it before buying. It should not be a problem. cheers
right now, i think it would be my black knight vortex krypton xl. and my dunlop aerogel ultimate (i like the play of my new rackets. i don't know if it's because of the wear and tear of my old rackets o it's just psychological. haha.)
Here are some shots of the Dunlop Bimomimetic Elite. https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/QGBCvUjCZfxJElaRkQs7Mg?feat=directlink https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/vs6J7xHxa552mgp2Tu8FDQ?feat=directlink https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/LqDYygVfBy_mzNpR9QxOjA?feat=directlink https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/hA-RnAHYA7P82Y-3RZo77Q?feat=directlink
ummmmm from Dunlop..........They changed all the Carlton brand racquets to Dunlop to help improve Dunlop name in the US. BTW Dunlop Sports owns Carlton..
I own an Aerogel Tour and Elite as well as a Carlton Vapour Trail Tour racquet. The Dunlops definitely play differently from the Carlton.
