    Hello all (badminton lovers)

    Once again I am torn between two decisions AT900T or NS7700
    I buying it as a present for my dad cus it seems like he had just lost all fun playing with his Carlton Powerflo Graphite.:crying::(

    He is advance and about 42 years old. He likes a racquet that is very manouverable but still gives a feel of raw power when drving or clearing, and my freind recommended the At900T adn NS7700. Also doesn't matter if it can't clear properly he just wants the feel.;)

    He is very skilled though, can make my friend run allover the court aswell, and after the game my friend is practically dead lol. :D;)

    My price budget is NZ$400 (sale 2 NS7700 for NZ$400)(1 At900T for NZ$339)
    Pls. help me.:confused:

    wow, at900 is so expensive

    a 7700 for 200 NZ is reasonable

    The NS7700 may feel 'numb' because of the Vibration Filter Cap ( VFC ).

    The AT900T would beat the NS7700 in terms of 'feel', but the price is a major upset. The price is that high both at the shop in Gillies Avenue and North Harbour.. But the NS7700 seems cheaper down in Gillies.. 2x NS7700 for 400NZD. At North Harbour, I believe that it's 300$ per piece for the NS7700.
    Rebel Sports or Stirling sports.. skip.

    You may as well order an AT900T online from a reputable source such as Wingee, Kaiseng or Luxis.. The total price including the shipping fees should still be lower than what you'd pay in NZ.

    Hi
    my NS7700 broken after hitting a simple clash with another
    racket . in first playing with it , i think NS7700 has a flaw in design . :mad:
    it's very fragile . i think it have a abnormal frame shape .
    you can read more about NS7700 and the other that broken their rackets very easy .

    that's my idea .

    i think Armortec series are best now and better than ARC .

    make your choice with research .

    good luck

    I am using an AT900T now and it is a powerful racket, especially for back hand clear. But, it is not a very manouverable racket. I also tried NS 800, and I think it is better than the AT 900T in the manouverable manner.

    Actually, I am considering a NS 7700 for a double racket because of its headlight configuration, which brings more manouverability.
