Haha.. what r gud question...

I just get a new one to play in alternatives. So they last a little longer because I SMASH HARD!!!!

looking for the "one".
its not about this brand or that, but unfortunately, not all of us can demo a racket in store and will have to settle trying them out after educated guesses as to what may suit best... and from there its a downward spiral for the pursuit of happiness.

I can think of worse ways of spending my money.
But i still keep things in perspective. I spend more on shuttles than on rackets. To me, that says something.
Im just an average player.... at best.

Time changes, the style of play, the partners and the skill... hence demands are changing as well. If you're supposed as a member of one team to play with one particular shuttle, have an other partner or even just have one slight shift in tactics, your might want or need one new toy.

But sometimes it is just the fact, that we all are children, wanting something new to play with

One evident option is missing: I need this new racquet to help improve my game.

This is always my choice and I don't think I am the only one to do so; well, I hope...!

Previously was using MP25, just switched to VT70. Try guest how old is my MP25 XD

**ah.b|ack** · 09-15-2011, 03:42 AM

guess... Typo~~

**fshong** · 12-16-2011, 09:49 PM

Gave my old broken racket to children to play. No heartache even tho scratched

**raistian** · 12-19-2011, 05:16 AM

It's not like I have a choice

My weapon of choice is Carbonex 20 - not sp, special or tour, just the plain ol' 20. It's getting harder and harder to find one so I have to jump to the isometric bandwagon.

I'm going to buy new racquets tomorrow

Looking to downgrade to MP99, Armortech 900T or Z-Slash (my ex has one and I quite like it).

somehow i like to swap the racket during the game if i couldn't handle that particular racket well, swap to another may make me feel better

**jajvirta** · 12-22-2011, 01:47 AM

I don't want a new racket, but I guess I need a new racket, because currently I only have one and it's pretty nerve-wracking to play in a tournament with just one racket. :-)
