Hi everyone, I just found this site and am excited to be able to talk badminton with such knowledgeable people. I'm a university student in Ontario playing varsity badminton, men's singles and doubles and am looking for a new racket or 2 or 3 I currently play with Yonex Ti-3 - but am dissatisfied with the power for singles and feel for doubles. I am looking at going to an MP-77 for singles and Carlton AS-TI for doubles. Any thoughts? I am also quite new to the string scene (my rackets are strung at 21lbs with BG 65) any suggestions as to what tension and type of string to use for the new rackets? I need more power for singles especially. My primary question is DOES ANYONE KNOW OF ONLINE RETAILERS IN CANADA that I can purchase rackets from? Any help will be greatly appreciated Thanks, Tauri
Lee's badminton. They ship to anywhere in Canada. Prices might not be the best but they do sell online. www.leesbadminton.com I remember a few out in western Canada. Other BC regulars from the west will know. Since, you are situated in Ontartio, Lee's would be better.
I have dealt with Lees a few times. They didn't give me much info like: they have it in stock and delivery time. They didn't even have any idea whether my racquet was shipped or not. Took me 3+ weeks to get it. Don't expect good services.
if you want a as-ti for a good price, maybe we can arrange sometime? email me. im willing to sell a pratically new as-ti for rather cheap. bye.
The best online Hey you want to get a really good racket. Try www.prizmsports.com. They sell FORZA badminton products. They are the best rackets in the world. I can vouch for that. They are number 1 in Euorpe and will hopefully be in number 1 in North America. Anyway give them a try I use the Legend Classic and for 99 bucks CDN you can't lose. If not and you are looking for some more power you should try the Tech 500 1. Will Milroy uses it and he can nail that thing. Good luck!
Where exactly are u located ?? I sell racquets and am based in Toronto. email me if you want some prices .. restring@hotmail.com
Check out this Toronto store: www.tdgsportsinternational.com They have Black Knight at really good prices & it says they'll have Yonex in September which will probably be at good price too...they also have the ASICS GEL BLAST 3 which is a sick shoe!!!
