    well i dont know if the picture is good enough to see that its broken

    but yeah ... yesterday i dont know how but i just smashed and it just cracked right there i didnt hit anything =(

    i bought it in HongKong...

    well now i dont know what to do i want to get a new racquet ... but i have used most of the racquets and i think nano9000 was one of the best... but i dont want to buy the same one since nano7700 is out.. but in Richmond BC CANADA the nano7700 isnt out yet ... anyone got any good ideas?

    btw i have used my nano9000 since september so less than 3 mths =(

    Which store in HK did you buy the NS-9K from? Who strung your racquet? How did you transport your racquet from Hong Kong to Richmond? A simple mishit should not brake the racquet that easily.

    i bought it from a shop in MK i forgot the name but i was 100 % it was real and the guy there stringed it and i stringed it @ 22 pounds
    from hk to richmond i put it in my big badminton bag and clothes was around it
    i think that ... its because i dropped it a few times and there might be a small crack and when i smashed it just broke.

    because it happend to my friends be4 too there was a small crack but he found out with his 8000 and smashed and same crack occoured

    Did you personally carry the your badminton bag as a carry on item?

    nope , but it was safely made sure that it was wrapped around stuff so nothing would happen to it

    Dropping it might of contributed to the damage of the racket. I my NS77K won't be out here anytime soon. No need to go after the latest racket out there.

    Even thou I own a NS9K JP, my own old Yonex rackets rackets which I use, I consider as one of the best.

    I would not bother with Impulse, their prices high.

    How much did you pay for your JP in HK? The price I've seen for it in HK seems pretty expensive. I gotten mine from Japan which is less than of what HK would sell it for.

    about 2000 HKD i thought it was really expensive cuz they had the Made in Japan Edition but the Serial code was ending with IP for 1300 =/
    and the one i have ends with the serial code of JP

    I've seen ALOT of complaints from people saying their NS9000's cracked in less than 3 months.

    I've tried to racket myself (a friends) and I love the thing, but I don't think I'd ever buy one from the amount of complaints of them cracking...

    What's your price range for a new racket?

    Jeff, it looks like you could of gotten a better if you ordered from Japan. I gotten my JP for 198 USD.

    You could order the same racket again if you like. I have several rackets which are the same the same racket at home because mine is discontinued.

    looks like a clean break.
    Likely due to damage from mishandling of luggage.

    Since you got your ns77k from peter, I'll tell you some good shops. Tad's Sporting Goods- www.tadssports.ca It's one of the cheapest local stores I've gone to.
