Yonex Nanospeed 9900 Review

[h4n5ip]

Flandy's partner uses the NS9900...

LCW has been testing this at the AE..

...and very nearly lost!

He switched to the AT-900P.
Perhaps more nerves than feel

I meant who will be carrying as an icon for this racket

I'm sorry but I don't know... I have never used a 2U racquet

Really?

Hi Oldhand, what are the advantages of 2U cf to 3U?
Thanks.

2U is heavier, so if you can swing it fast, you'll get more power (due to the added mass) than the same racket in 3U. They're also more durable and can take higher tensions.

Yeah I agree, a bit off topic, but yesterday, I noticed Boe of Denmark in AE 2009 SF, switches from Head Metallix to Yonex Arcsaber 10.

He made so many critical errors that turn the tide in the 2nd set.
His nervous system and muscles are so in tuned with the ex racquet that he lost touch with the Arcsaber 10. Fu and Cai, whom used the same racquets for years promptly dispatched Boe and Morgensen.

Anyway Ants was right, the NS9.9K stiffness felt like between NS9K S & X, although rated as stiffer than type X. The racquet tied with strings felt a little head heavy but overall, it's actually very similar to NS9K type X.

I just had a chance to try out the new NS9900. I am ditching my old classy lady (Cab30ms) and going with NS9900. The one I have is a 3UG4 strung with BG80 at 22.5x25 lb. It feel even balanced with a little head light. My first shot, the NS9900 already talking to me. The clear is strong and far, smash is powerful and accurate. Back court drop is tight and just over the net. Control is just superb. Racquet is fast and can be turn and return smash and block with ease. I love the feed back from the NS9900. This might be the best badminton racquet YY made so far.

Such good word from a long-time Cab30 user... I may really need to give this one a shot too .

i am still waiting for dinker's review of this new bamboo stick.

[Tsumaranai]

I'm not so sure he'll be trying it anytime soon. He seems intent on creating his own racket and also mainly using Apacs products.

any body experience any breaking of this racquet? is it more tougher then other nanospeed?

[szekt]

Hi can I ask if I am happy with everything about NS9000S except that it feels a bit too headlight for my liking, will getting NS9900 address the problem?Thanks

It won't.

But for the cosmetic redesign, the 9000X and the 9900 are the same racquet.
(The S is, well, less stiff.)
And like UHMG, NANO, CRAP, etc, there's a new set of such words

Bought a ns9900 at Pertama racquet world. RM700 with strings and grip. But changed it to bg66 sharp and yonex grip, so add rm40

It is too early to tell. But from my stringing with this racquet, it is a tougher one to break.

Thanks Oldhand; think I have finally made up my mind to get AS10 and try if it suits me; reckon if things dont work out, still have my NS9000S to fall back on, heehee

[krisss]

Just to say I didn't like the Nanospeed 9900 when trying it out.

My friend thought of buying it because he had a Nanospeed 9000 like you ^^ ^^ - and when he bought it he hated it

So he fell back on his 9000's
