Hi everybody..... Im new here.... Actually, i have 2 old racket. Now, planning buy new 1 coz the old 1 left at my hometown. Could anybody give any suggestion according to the list below:- Yonex Nanospeed 800 - RM160 Yonex Nanospeed 500 - RM150 Yonex Nanospeed 300 - RM140 Yonex Nanospeed 200 - RM130 Yonex Nanospeed 100 - RM120 Yonex Carbonex 21 Special - RM180 Yonex Carbonex 10 Muscle - RM190 Yonex Armortec 70MG - RM170 Yonex Armortec 50 - RM155 Yonex Armortec 30 - RM140 Yonex Armortec 150 - RM155 Yonex Armortec 250 - RM170 - My budget is below RM200 (Malaysia currency), and this list is one of the cheapest i can get. - My style of play is hard-hitting, intermediate player, need power, lack defensive. Im open to any suggestion. Please, i need fast response....
I don't quite get you on these points. So you basically need power but you lack defense? Armortec series is head-heavy. Meaning that they are good for power and may be bad for defense for some player. Armortec 30 is pretty much a replacement of Armortec 150, so there isn't a difference, much. Armortec 70MG got this so-called Mega Frame G2. But I don't see any real advantage to it. Nanospeed 800 is pretty good for defense but you must not clash with it as it can be fragile, and this applies to all Nanospeeds. Carbonex could be the most durable in your list and I think Carbonex 21 is the bang for the buck. Have you tried all of those racquets before? If you haven't, do a search and check some of the reviews for these racquets.
yup, im lack of defence n maybe have lot of power of backhand.....hahaha..... some of ppl said that Carb 21 got some prob & already being stop from production.... is it true?????
i believe it was reintroduced. http://www.badmintonalley.com/Yonex_Carbonex_21_p/racket-yonex-cab21.htm
i believe that it was the later generation that had much of the problems. though, hte earlier generation has a very nice feel. and power, and maneuverability.
