    Well am looking for a racket for my friend and it has to be around 220 Canadian or below. His playing style is a lot of net play and needs a lot more power. It can be more then one, because he is demoing rackets and the only thing he said is that it has to have a head the size that is bigger. I guess he means a big sweet spot. Hes not that strong and he is only like 4' 4", or around. So any reviews would be much of help.

    Try to demo AT700 (in price range), AT900-t or NS7700 (may be a good used one).

    Id recommend the Ns7700 because even though it is slightly head heavy..it has a nice solid feel and the vibration Filtration cap really knocks out all unwanted vibrations. You can get it at Maxsports.ca for $245 with any choice of string, price includes shipping and 6 months of Warranty. And another good thing is that if u register at their forum, you get $10 off!! SO basically your friend pays, $235 for choice of strings & labour and shipping. Also he responds to questions very fast. =]

    He's 4 4? How old is he? You might want to consider getting a light racket since he probably won't be able to play well with heavier rackets like the at700 at his age.
