been seeing many selling their AT900 Technique.. wondering is this a racket just for unique player with special skills. which mean this is not a common racquet for normal players.
At900t Hi flyingfox, This is a very good racket, which in good in defence n control but abit lacking in power. Those who sell this rackets may find it unsuitable for them in one of the aspect or maybe they need fund to buy another racket. Anyway, racket's suitability depends on individual,correct? If u like the racket, u may keep it for a long time. Lee
The AT-900T is quite a Rottweiler racquet... it's not for everyone At high string tensions, it's a wonderful racquet. Control, power and feeling... it's all there The puzzling thing is the racquet's user profile. Cai Yun, (the manly) Du Jing & Yu Yang, Muhamed Hafiz Hashim, (until recently) Taufik Hidayat... it's a mystery how it attracts players with such differing styles!
I also play an AT900 which is the best racket i ever own. The defense is perfect and also control is such an easy. The only negativ aspect is the lack of power, which has been mentioned by other users. But maybe it is just your own individual skill. Other players may generate more power with this racket. Me for myself i am very satisfied with this racket. I am planning to buy another 1 oder maybe to get an ARCSABER 7. I am not sure if this is a good decision? Greet
AT900T is an Excellent racket in my opinion. The reason why many are selling it could be because of it's weight balance and stiffness. It's very head heavy like the AT700, plus the racket is in the stiffer end of the spectrum, so beginners may find it kind of difficult to use. Well, that's my guess.
I love my AT900T. I am unlikely and unwilling to switch from it. I am normal player with nothing special about me. Just personally preference and is head-heavy (I am not sure about "very head-heavy"). Sufficient power and balance for me.
Amortect series is head heavy...but AT700 is head heavier than both AT900p/t ....wonder why bad_fanatic saying that AT900T is very head heavy like the AT700....zzzzz
if you like control, then I highly recommend arc7. as like AT900T, not much power generated for smash (probably depends on individual), but since you like defense (I'm assuming you're more a doubles player) then you should try the arc7.
AT900T seems to attract a lot of people...people who like to play a very fast game involving drives, netplay, and halfsmashes. It can generate enormous power, but this requires an extremely fast swing. However, at comparable racquet speeds, other racquets like the AT900P, AT700, ARC10, MP99 will produce more power. It's demanding in the sense that it requires the speed of a head light racquet for power, and the reflexes of a head heavy racquet for defense. However, the overall power and speed of the racquet make it powerful and versatile.
