Hey ive been playing around in the gym and i need to decide on a racket,can u guys help?I want one that is good for smashes.Just tell me what you would recommend,and please give me ones such as yonex,etc.....you know,the ones i can find on the internet.THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!!
If you don't live too far from New York, try to contact www.nycbadminton.com. They are dealers for Yonex, Gosen and SOTX. They have gyms in the city, and you can talk to them to arrange some demo and local pick up.
a big smasher friend of mine recently bought the NS9000X, apparently it's been working wonders for him. I on the other hand recommend a AT700 - if Lin Dan and Taufik use it...
I won't suddenly jump into conclusion, just based on "i want to smash". The stiffer / head heavier rackets only work well, if the player has the proper skill / strength to handle it. I've seen many local players blindly pick up AT800OF / AT700, and suffer a big drawback in playability , as they can't handle the racket. Once they switched back to their usual light / more flexed rackets, their performance just bounced back.
thanks for the suggestions and i know what you mean lazybuddy but i kinda know what i want,i would never just get a good racket because i want to smash,i've been training for a while now and i realized that my smashing is good
hows the badminton going on in US?? i heard it is not as big as basketball and american football... right??
