    Hi,

    I am looking for other brand racket which has similar feel with Kason F9. I have been thinking about arcsaber FB but its weigh and flexibility (maybe) shows a lot of different.

    Hi bro,
    One of my badminton kaki told me Yonex NR 800 had similar feel with Kason F9.

    Any comment from others ?

    N9 is supposedly to b F9 successor but the fans been saying N9 has heavier head n hence play differently.

    I've been told the opposite.

    will be purchasing an f9 soon but the n9 is supposedly more headlight and stiffer. Didn't translate well for me personally.

    Thanks bros,

    I think N55 is much similar to F9, but not on stiffness. Yonex NR 800 is a little bit heavier I think. One thing special about Kason F9 is that even though its rate is balance and medium stiff, but once you pump up for jumping, it give you better power than other head heavy machines. Yet, give you fast maneuver for defense. Thats what I like about it. But victor TK 6000? never tried before

    After acquiring and using the Kason F9,

    I can't quite pinpoint all the differences but N9 is definitely not the successor to the F9. Li-Ning N9 is stiffer and slightly even balance / head light. Power was hard to unlock with this racquet and the defense was just adequate.


    The F9 most certainly packs a punch for it's advertised rating. (Even balance?) The most power I've gotten from a racquet so far. (Maybe it suits me haha)

    The feel is good, no head lag from the flexible shaft and it's definitely agile.

    my specs are 87g dry (Bp around 290-295)

    95g with string and one overgrip. 24x26 zm65

    The adipower duoforce with a slightly higher bp could be comparable.
