I have not yet scraped the ground with my ARC10 but i am very interested to know how well can these graphite racket coupe with ground scrapes. Speaking not only of my ARC10 with its fancy HMG and HM frame but Graphite frame in general, say a nanospeed 100? I had a ARMORTEC 300 long time back and it used to scrape the ground all the time and i remember it had a metal frame even tough the box said graphite i would taste/see/feel metal. So compared to say aluminum how much better/worse would a simple graphite "No additives" fair in ground scrapes that one may get while picking up a drop or something?
I will never scrape my racket to the hard surface if you play on BWF approved court, the floor is made from rubber, so it is fine but I played in a multipurpose court, so the flooring is from wood I don't know how well it can take, but I hate to see my racket get new scars from doing it
I also play in multipurpose courts but off late i have been playing at another club and their courts are different. Its like cement with a rubber compound on top which makes them pretty hard and rough compared to the wooden floors.
On any floor, it's going to take years before you wear it out Really, it's not an issue except if you want the paint job to look good. Which might just frighten your opponents the other side of the court ...
Oh that's great to know and what about clashes? Say a NS 80 clashes with a NS 100 directly on the head?
