    hi all I'm new here. I did a search on this but don't seems to find any thread on this topic. let me know if theres any discussion/recommendations on this topic somewhere...i'll delete this later...

    Anyway, back to my question.... I'm intermediate player...play most of the time double or mix double...quite good net player :D.... have a few rackets all hand me downs from aunties and brothers and sisters....never purchase one for myself until recently I've purchased a Ti-Zero....so am a bit lost here.. fav brand is yonex of course... i have 3 old carbonex racket and a new Ti Zero bought last week ...have not tested it yet...dont know much about it and bought it based on recomemdations by the sales person...silly me...

    I'm actually looking to buy a racket for net playing...any suggestions? I'm planning to get another one....is Ti 10 good enough for net playing or should I get the Nanospeed 6000? any other suggestion? The yonex shop nearby my apt has all models... tempted to get Nanospeed9900...:D but too expensive for my budget....

    oh forgot to mention....I will need a racket that performs well for net playing and half court smashing but give me the extra push (use less strength) for baseline play...

    For non Yonex, you can consider the Babolat X-Feel series, amongst the racquets that I have, it has a very "solid" feeling which is good for control/net play.
