I am looking for a second racket when the badminton store owner told me Carlton Powerflo 807 wide was a good buy. he quoted me a price - s$55 with bg 66, $59 with bg80 (includes grip).i want to ask if this is a good buy and a good racket?reviews,recommended tension,bg66 or bg80. tks in advance!! tks to those that can provide me with a review / pic and presonal opinion.
It looks stunning if you ask me, which is strange as all their other 2009 models are really ugly. I've got no idea how it plays - doesn't seem to be available here in the UK
I personally find it very good vaue for money and prefer it over my other yonex racquets. Thought it's stated as 85 gram weight, it actually feels rather light. In fact, I actually went to buy 2 more immediately after using it for the first time. However, I'm not a very good player so it's better if you try it out yourself. The price you were quoted is reasonable as I got mine slightly lower. Send me a PM if you want to know where.
hello cam, u have 3 pieces? its a good buy. i am tempted too. if i recall correctly, it used to cost more than S$100. (the old color of powerflo 807 was black). the powerflo 807 has a wide body ISO frame.
Unfortunately, purple bg 85 and black overgrip. Purple 'cos only color left but it did look good in contrast with the wood/brown frame. Black is the only color that hides the sweat/dirt stains which makes other colors look very unslightly. A aldy colleague chose red o/grip and she's very happy wif thecolor scheme.
i am still pondering of the colour and wad to choose. headache. any recommendations? i am using the super pu karakal grip.
Just bought Carlton powerflo 807 wide this afternoon. I personally hate the colour scheme, i prefer the colour scheme of powerflo 813 glo. But dun care la cause the comments on this beast is so positive, just buy lor. Hopefully it turn up like what wakloo69 said, SMASH SEEMED DOUBLE. haha.
To each his own I guess as I did not like the 813 colors. Do share with us your opinion of the 807 after playing with it.
