    Now that the Nanospeed 9000 type X is discontinued (at least in the US), I am wondering if there is there another racket that is similar to it?



    Thanks!

    Nanospeed 9900 is near identical as I've been told

    The 9900 is definitely similar. It has more power to it, but I am looking for something that can allow me to drive the bird more easily accurately. I would prefer a fast racket that can give me more help when it comes to lifts and controlling where the bird goes when it comes to my drives. I feel like the 9900 emphasized more on power with the loss of what I am looking for.

    Nonetheless, a good suggestion. I hope to get more opinion from other people as well :)

    Why don't you try to look up the Arcsaber 10 ?

    Yeah man before you know it you'll win the US Open MS with it ... can't say you haven't been warned now :p.
    Since you're in Cali anyway: Panda Power? Trinity Pro might be something which is coming up soon ... (http://www.dcbadminton.net/products.htm)

    I agree, the NS9900 is a pretty awesome racket and I had one of my own actually, but I still preferred the 9000 for it feels more quicker than the 9900 IMO. I am also trying to find a cheaper alternative :eek:.



    Ooooo, I never thought about Panda Power rackets. Which one would be the most suited to my likings?
    I'll also look into the Victor Brave Sword 10 :)

    Thanks to all the suggestions so far btw

    I've never tried a NS9000X but I wonder if Panda would agree that a head-light to medium balance Trinity 1 would be similar? (My T1 is just as stiff as a friend's NS9900 but slightly less head heavy.) Trinity 1 is out of production but there might be used T1's in California that you could try. :)

    Is the Nanospeed 9000 S the Racket with the flexible shaft ? or is the Nanospeed 9000 X?
    I have tried this racket but it is just not a racket that suites the way i play

    S is the stiff shaft. X is the extra stiff shaft.

    Well one of my friends has this racket
    and every time i was smashing with it, I felt it didn't have enough power in the smash and the shaft was very flexible

    Well if it felt flexy, then i think it must have been a fake, and having fake strings aswell, sort of confirms my suspisions.

    I think the NS9000X is a very good racket, it is a very useful doubles racket, with a balance of power control and defence. i think the 9900 is an improvement over the 9000X though.

    I have not so far found a racket as complete as NS9900, the closest would be NS9000X.
