So which one, in ur opionion, is ur choice? i know they both are very similar in terms of feeling, control, and performance (according to the other threads), so i wondered, if they are similar, which one would u prefer? i know tons of ppl who used both these rackets (ie bluejeff) so i would like to hear ur opinions. Which one is better for u , in terms of performance? can u write which one's power is more superior, which one's repulsion's more superior, etc. this is nothing about color of racket, price, etc. only the performance. thx
If we are only considering Performance, I will probably pick MP-99. If we are considering Everything, I will probably pick Cab-30MS.
For ''me'' Mp99>Cab30Ms Good side of Cab30MS (3U): - Easier maneuverability - Better durability (Cabs keep impressing me) - Slightly faster swing - Cheaper Good side of MP99 (3U) - More solid feel - Packs more power - Bigger sweetspot - Better defence If the price is the same, I would choose MP99 over Cab30Ms. If they are at their retail price I would'nt choose any of those.
Sorry New_Guy04, may I put AT700 in this comparing thread as well?? Because I'm considering these three racquet right now....please New_Guy04
I have tried all the AT700, MP99 and the Cab-30 MS in turn. Now, there is only the Cab in my bag! I perfectly agree with bluejeff : - If we are only considering Performance, I will probably pick MP-99 or AT700. - If we are considering Everything, I will probably pick Cab-30MS. In additional, I'm an amateur player who sometimes falls into the finals of non-professional championship, I really need Everything instead of Performance.(I have just won in the mixed double and men double finals of tournament for The Cadre of Southern VN Communist Youth Union , with handing the Cab 30 MS,3U, 24pls stringing )
If only performance I will pick cab30ms, as I just have a difficult time to get the timing for ISO rackets, and the extra stiffness with MP99 make it even harder to achieve. If consider everything (i.e. durability, price, etc), I will definitely go with Cab30ms. In US, MP99 is retail for US$170+, while Cab30ms is around US$100-110.
yeah, lol, i dun really understand the EVERYTHING... do u mean the combo of performance+price+durability?
Defnitely the MP-99. Overall, I believe that it is the better racquet but then again you might disagree with alot of us here.
it also depends if u are comfortable with the extra stiffness of the mp99 i tried 3UG5 mp99 before and it was too stiff for my liking, but the stiffness of cab30 3UG5 was just about right for me. bear in mind though, i'm a scrawny fellow stronger ppl should have no problems with the extra stiffness i assume
anyone know if they have the same length? also which racket would be slightly heavier? are they both 3U in the UK? thankssss
You can't really compare durability between Cab30MS and MP99 because thee are too many settings and every case of defect is unique. However, keep in mind that oval shape racquet like Cab30MS are usually more durable than Iso racquet like MP99 because anything that is getting close to a perfect circle is more durable.
Then.... I'd say... Forever? I mean, if there wasn't any racquet clashes, I doubt any racquet would break LOL... A racquet can't just break from hitting a shuttle, can it?
