    Hi there

    I am trying to get back into badminton recently but I found out the racket I used to play with is not selling anymore. Can anyone help suggest whats the current Yonex replacement for the MP100 series racket?

    thanks in advance

    probably be cheaper to buy from HK since shipping to Shanghai will be cheaper.

    I would say Nanospeed 8000, very stiff and balanced

    It would be best if you can try it out, the specs might be similar, but it'll probably play slightly different.

    The Arc 10 would be good choice IMO. You said it yourself, it's a balanced racket just like the MP100. The best way is to try the racket before you buy it.

    what about Ti-10. Gen 3 will do.
    if I am not wrong MP100 and Ti-10 has the same technology on the frame.
    Muscle power frame.

    As said, the MP100 is still available in some stores. Why change what works?
