    My Nano9000S recently snapped and I've been using my old Carbonex 15 and 20s but the light head and power will never be the same as my Nano9000S.

    I'm looking for a new racket, and what's the closest thing to a Nano9000S? because I don't wanna spend another $300 for everything again >__>

    Thanks all.

    Nanospeed 8000 would be a great choice. Some say it's better than the NS9KS.

    Wow, people have different opinions on rackets. My yellow Ti10s are relative hammers and nothing like the 9000-S which is a feather.

    But I to each his own and your mileage may vary. :p

    You could have done a search on buy and sell forum and find a NS9000-s for sale for $150 USD earlier.

    Since he's looking for head light racket with good maneuverability n power..i guess ti-10 might be a good answer.Like u said,NS9K is a feather..haha..so,nothing's wrong with offering the same head light but with much bigger power..:D

    Ns8000 has far less power than ns9k type s (I mean because ns8000 is too stiff and hard to generate power)

    This is a head heavy racket, not head light! Have you tried this racket before?

    Try Wilson K tour or K blaze.
    Don't forget to write us a review if you bought it.
    I bought my K tour and it's on the way.
    I'll keep you guys informed.

    why dont you try tactic namiblades. They feature the same technology at half the priceand can be found on my badminton store. Search around the trends they seem to be reccommended by most people. The only difference i know ofis that namiblades are slightly less stiff.

    (ps nanospeeds are too fragile. I know off too many people who have broken those rackets so dont feel too bad)
