as the title. I'm looking for new racket that have head heavy and not too much stiff (Spring shaft). I mostly play double sometimes single. Love to smash from the back and mid of the court, cut drop. which one you prefer MX JJS or TK9000? and which U?(3U or 4U) Thanks
I've owned and used both. I have a 4U TK9000 and played last season with a 3U JJS, you get extra punch with the TK9000 and it's just as fast as the 3U JJS.
Since you mentioned 'not too stiff', JJS shouldn't be in your list. Go for Victor Thruster series instead.
Played with both MX-JJS n TK-9ooo in 4u. Both r great rackets in their own rights. MX-JJS shaft is stiffer than TK-9ooo n gives one more control of birdie placement on courts. TK-9ooo is head heavier with less stiff shaft, giving one more power with the smashes than JJS. If u find TK-9ooo is too stiff, there's also TK-6ooo which is as head heavy with a less stiff shaft than TK-9ooo.
Personally I find JJS more playable....TK9000 is too head-heavy and stiff for quick defense and rallies for doubles
For me, the TK9000 in 4U does everything better than the JJS in 3U. But then so did the TK6000, if you need something less stiff...
I'm with you. When I bought the TK9000 I wanted to keep the JJS as a faster spare. I didn't need it, the TK was as fast, equally good in defence and control and ruined it for power.
Each to his own...find my 4u TK-9ooo suits my game. It's an all-rounder that is sufficiently quick for rally n defence n most of all, a great smasher... ( ^.^)
Great minds think alike... Initially, kept my JJS as a spare since started playing with TK-9ooo. Ever since then, the JJS has been mostly sleeping in the bag. The sole reason am still keeping it is bcoz of its aesthetic...to me JJS is presently the most beautiful racket... ( *.*)
I have 3U JJS and TK9K but for me I would always choose JJS. For me it feels more stable than the TK9K so I feel like I have more control, maybe because the head of the TK9K is a bit bigger than JJS. But from what you said it sounds like you like hitting big so TK9K might be better suited because that's what it's designed for.
Concur that JJS has a more stable frame than TK9k as JJS has the stiffer shaft. Bout "hitting big", I would prefer a more rounded game actually. But..... ( ^.*) .....on the other hand, I do agree TK9k is designed for that coz it's so irresistible not to smash.
