based on the specs on the racket, seems like a sweet racket

I got to try out the Lethal 90 today, but only in a few drills. I was smashing in one of the drills, and the power I got was amazing! I have never hit the shuttle so fast. I love stiff head heavy racquets, and this fits both, I would've liked a bit more tension, it was strung at 28lbs and I play at 31lbs, but I didn't get much time to test it at the net or in a game to give it a full review.
Based on what my friends were saying about it I would reccomend not moving onto this racquet if it is your first stiff shaft racquet. Because the Yonex AT900P says it has a stiff shaft and compared to the lethal 90, it really doesn't. Move onto a racquet that is stiff before this or you will end up with shoulder injuries trying to generate power with this.
I still have the Tantrum 300 to play around with, I had a little go today and I was pleased with how it felt, but no specific opinions on anything else till I use it a bit more.

I feel that when the shuttle hits the frame, it flexes/distorts more than the other two. That is why my smashes tend to have errors with L11. String tensions are roughly same for those rackets.

**Skanbuzz** · 09-09-2010, 07:50 AM

Hi guys,

Considering getting the Lethal series of rackets. Been using the APACS nano 9900 & nano 9900 power, mainly single game but some double too
which of the APACS lethal series most resemble the Nano 9900? or can give your review/comments
I prefer head light or even balance
what do you all think about the Whip slim frame etc? does it really work?
borrowed a friend's Yonex Z slash and the whip is good on that
so does the APACS lethal series have the same or ??

thanks

Lethal 6 with whip slim frame is slightly faster than Nano 9900 power/Nano 9900. Lethal 6 has greater repulsion and less vibration (~ 24-25lbs). I play only doubles with those rackets.

seem like it is a good budget racket....just now i went to the shop pertama complex to test the slayer 88, it feel great and heavy at the aerodynamic frame (slightly heavy than lethal 90), marked 3u but feel light , the hardness of the shaft is same as the lethal 90 ....for me , the feel on hand slayer 88 is better than lethal 90. Rm 310 with string, grip, and double compartment bag.

Hi,

thanks

what tension you strung yours to?
you had the two nano 9900 and lethal 6 before and you have try all?
I heard the Z slayer vibrate and you mentioned that the lethal 6 does not..so good
Any other experience with the Lethal range? maybe lethal 9

thks

how about lethal 9

All are 24-25lbs range. Yes I have Nano 9900 power and Lethal 6 now. I had Nano 9900, which I sold it recently. I have other APACS rackets like - VH1700, Tantrum Light Exclusive (TLE), Lethal 11, Lethal Light Special (LLSp). I used VH1300, Lethal light 1.10. I have other rackets from Dunlop and Carlton. APACS rackets generally have greater feeling. When I hit the shuttle I can definitely feel the impact or some sort of vibration in my arm. Here is the order of it - Nano 9900 Power ~ Nano 9900 > Lethal 11 > TLE (27lbs) ~ LLSp ~ Lethal 6 ~ Lethal Light 1.10 > VH1300 > VH1700 > Carlton Power Blade >> Dunlop Aero Gel 3000 (23lbs) ~ Dunlop Aero Gel 2000 (23lbs). Sometime I like that feeling sometime I do not. I guess L11 and L9 are almost same.

Search for L11 if you are interested to know more. there are several discussions/feedbacks in BC.

I would like to try couple of more like Stern 300, T200 before changing to >$200 Yonex. APACS rackets are relatively cheap and their frame is strong. My colleague broke two Yonex and chipped several by his VH1300.
