Hello, I'm looking for cheap racket (pro ace/apacs/protech etc) which is stiff/extra stiff, slightly headlight/even balance and has no vibration (solid feel). Any recommendation? Thanks a lot
Tantrum 200 is a good racket & very solid... but head heavy. it is good for smash, but average for defense. Looking for stiff & solid racket like tantrum 200 but slightly headlight or even balance...
they say it's slight head heavy but i feel it's even balanced if that's the case, maybe you can try Yonex NanoSpeed low end series..some of my friends has them with average tension (25lbs+-) and they like it. not so sure about solidity though
Keep in mind that there will be some variation in specs for any racket. One person may get a slightly higher BP than another with the same racket.
You could try to find one of these: http://www.puppysports.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=detail&id=76044&product=533 I've played a game or two with one. Stable, very stiff, very quick, and because it's old model very cheap.
You should also look into a YY NS8000 - not sure how much they are these days, but it's X-Stiff and very slightly headlight. (The low-end Nansopeeds are head light but not stiff, and IMO the NS7000 is probably too head light to be called "slightly" so; only other option is the NS7700, but for me that was a "nothing" racket.)
go for 2nd hand then... i think y o n e x m a n(if not mistaken) selling a few ti10 with nice price around 200-300. and he is somewhere in sabah or sarawak, i forgot.
