Hi ! I just buy a Yonex NanoSpeed 9000 X for my girlfriend who's playing badminton, but I know nothing about badminton. What king of string did I sould buy ? And what Tention the racket must be ? (( Sorry for my poor english, I'm french, but I try !! ))
well probably bg-66 with tension of 23lbs to compensate for the extremely stiff shaft ... in my view i think nanospeed9k X version is not suitable for females unless she has a strong arm/wrist ...
1) she must be a very good looking or you have too much money. 2) i will suggest bg85 with 20x22 lb for more power. 3) did you by a matching skirt to go with it?
you mean buy....? any recommendation for colour matching of the string too?? as for string and tension, both posts above are the way to go......
She's cute, but I love her... The story is that all of her rackets been steel... And I want to make a surprise to her, but I wasn't sure witch racket to go with... so I choose that one... Skirt ? No ? Sould I brought one ?
1) If all her racquets are steel one so far, NS9000-x will be a very wrong wrong choice. (2 wrong does not make it right) Some thing like NS6000 id she is a defensive/control player or a AT500 if she is a offensive/smashing player. The Arc 7 is the new Yonex racquet's internal name the just came out in North America about 3 weeks ago. The full name is Arc Saber 7. It is a very good defensive with great gontrol. It lack a little on the power dept. Do a seach on the Arc Saber 7 and you will find a lot of good info on it. Ants and Matt wrote good reference reviews on it. There are great deal on it if you know who to ask. Good luck and best wish.
Steel in the meening of.. voler... like someone took it away from her... She's an offensive player, with a lot of force... more than me ! :crying:
Does that include her style of spending money? The skirt is for you, not for her in this case. If she kick your @ss on the court, just play front a lot so she can kick you easier. If she smash a lot, get BG80, not BG85 as I said before.
lol Silient !!! Caesar - get her an Arc Saber 7 stringed with Nanogy98 @ 26lbs. Then she will have a lot of power to beat ya! Any pics? heheheh!
oh man... I hope she's advance level and natually strong cuz this racquet is not ideal @ all~~ if it's possible, swap for a type-S or get the arc saber 7! Can't recommend a tension or string since I don't know how she plays~ just for reference, I strung my ns9kx @ 30lbs with bg-68ti
She was #1 in Atlantic Canada not so far ago ..... She's a good player, but she had lost a little bid of her power... I how she will be able to play with de racket, I can't return it !!
if she can be #1 with steel racquets, she will adapt to anything! don't worry too much about it she'll be able to use and love you either way!
For those of you that still didn't understand what he was trying to say, I'm pretty sure the TC was saying that her rackets were stolen, not that she plays with steel rackets. And if you're being sarcastic, my bad. And if I'm wrong, my bad. lulz.
Probable, if . We're discussing about the ns9k that ceasar04 is going to give his girlfriend as a gift, so.. lets talk no more about that imaginary stolen racquet. The NS9K is like one of the most valuable racquets, so who cares about the other racquets anyway? Oh and ceasar04, , to compensate for the very stiff shaft.
dont get string. It's not because of $, it's about what tension and string she likes. So just give her the racket and let her get it strung because then she'll have the right tension. Otherwise you get her a string @ a tension she doesn't like she'll most likely cut the string and restring it.
