Hi Astec,
Do you have any stores/resellers in Penang, Malaysia? Have a friend there right now and trying to get him to help me pick up an Excalibur.

I have use the Storm PRO for almost a year. It is very fast and powerful. Shalf is a bit flex but that is the power come from. I have it strung at 26/28lb.... Love it

Dear all
wah sory sebelumnya, gak bisa bhs inggris nihh. mungkin ada yang tahu spec raket astec komplit seperti berat, balance point, teknologi yg dipake dll.Saya ingin tau detail dari raket pro 850/900 dan excallibur.thanks

**dropshout** · 05-29-2008, 10:07 AM

Dear all
apa raket pro 850/900, wave power and excallibur juga menggunakan teknologi tapper kick system?Bagus mana buat smashing n bertahan antara pro850/900, wave power and excallibur?thanks

**ctjcad** · 05-29-2008, 04:34 PM

..please..thanks-

*For those who have no clue what was written, the questions are related to the 850, 900, wave power & excalibur models:
1. Do all 4 also use tapered kickback technology?..
2. From those 4, which one(s) is a/are better defensive/offensive racket(s)??..

**HappyTA5** · 05-29-2008, 04:49 PM

OH.. that's fun.... We have interpreter service .... too

1. Only the STorm Pro and Excalibur have the taper kick system

2. PRO850/900 suppose to be offensive racket. They are 3U, stiff shaft. Storm PRO and Excalibur are 4U rackets. They are fast and very suitable in doubles. I call them defenseive but i smash with them pretty good.

**sifuyono** · 05-29-2008, 08:43 PM

dou you know which astec model has same specification as at-700?
very head heavy and medium stiff shaft spec...
thank you
