Hi, i'm Darren from England. Have only just found this site and thought i would join, as i am looking for a new racket and read some of the threads on here. I am having wrist joint problems due to my current racket (Yonex MP99) being unsuitable to the way i now play. I have just started playing again after a 5 week layoff with the wrist injury.
Hi, thanks Yeah, the racket doesn't have enough flex, i am over compensating with my wrist. I had a different style of playing when i bought the racket.
Welcome.. ..to BCDF, daz103 (Darren)!..Sorry to hear abt your wrist problem after playing w/the MP99. You weren't doing many trickshots with your wrist, did you?? Hmm, must be unpleasant as badminton is basically a "wrist-oriented" racket sport. How long have you been playing?? Has your wrist injury occur before or just started after playing baddy? Anyway, hope you'll find a suitable racket to feed your need and won't re-injure your wrist; in the meantime, keep visiting us and enjoy surfing in here!
Welcome to BC. You should certainly find lots of information on rackets that might suit you better. Have lots of fun.
