I have been using Armourtec 900 and wish to try a Babolat.( I am a hard hitter) Can any one advise the nearest equivalent of Babolat to Armourtec? Appreciate your reply.
X-Feel Blast is head heavy/extra stiff, X-Feel Power is head light/stiff while the X-Feel Essential is slightly head-heavy/medium stiff. I play with Yonex NS9900 and my partner uses the X-Feel Power. Similar rackets but everytime I try his Power, I find it numb. I prefer his Essential a lot more. Though I am in France where Babolat is very popular, I have never had the chance to try the X-Feel Blast — which should be the closest match to your Armortec.
I switched from an AT700 to a Babolat satellite nitro, because of the ridiculous yonex price 189$ vs 100$ for the babolat. And the transition went smoothly, they are very simmilar racquets.
