Change AT500 for AT900T

I would say the 900 has a lot more power (i use), and i used my friends 500, and the 900 a lot better at the net and it has a really good feel to it, the only problem is that for me it took awhile to get used to, but it was defiantly worth it once i got used to it. I would say that after i got that racket it helped, I have pretty good shots, so it fine tuned it for me. Well its hard to say but, I defiantly love the racket.

 

It feels really good when you do a drop shot or and smash.

 

The materials r different..for more info,.

I tried AT500 n i have AT900T as well.Playing with AT900T is better in all round.More control,more power,better looks,better maneuverability..The only disadvantage is the price difference r quite big,as far as i concern.

 

Its pretty stiff, almost as stiff as a armortec 800 offence, its rated at stiff. It is stiffer your 500.

 

how long did it take you to get used to it?? I just got an at 900 not to long ago. Wanna see if I can get used to it before my next tournement. Thanks

 

I play 2 times a week at least. My old racket was mid stiff and was an oval, it took me about 6 weeks.

 

Ya a long time. I was used to it but not to the full extent, probably after 2 weeks.

 

Or 8-9 hours. I got used to it but not the full extent.

 

You could have edited instead of triple posting, lol.

 

I made the switch from AT500 to AT900T last year, the main difference between the two rackets are AT900T has a faster swing speed and it's more stiff. AT900T is much better for net play due to the stiffer shaft.

It took around a month to get fully adopted to the AT900T. It is a really good racket and it is very accurate.

 

Ya I am not sure how to edit a post so am good.

 

900 frame is stiffer than 500 as well
