    Hi guys,

    Just a qucik question. Som 16 years ago when i was still an agile and dexterous individual, I played badminton with a special Carlton racket.

    I do not have any pictures nor do i know the model. However, it had a couple of very characteristic feature. It was feather light and the head had a shape much like that of a Prince racket, but a bit more soft. The shape of the head looked kind of like a drop of water.

    Do anyone know what racket this was?

    It was actually quite a good racket i remember it being quite powerfull in both smash and clears but also really fast up at the net.

    I hope I still have mine somewhere, would be fun to play a couple of games with it again
