Racket recomendation

**t3j_sb** · 04-22-2011, 12:27 PM

hi, im currently using nanospeed 9900 and thinking of moving over to victor products. im unaware of victor products, as ive always used yonex...

any recommended rackets similar to the 9900? my style is very controlled,relaxed and defensive, as i play more drops and deception, but can smash hard sometimes.

price or design/colours wont matter to me

cheers

The Bravesword 10 from Victor is probably the most similar to your nanospeed 9900. Its slightly less stiff than the nanospeed 9900 and slightly more head heavy (leaning towards mid-balance). An added bonus is that it looks good as well

. It's an excellent racket and I'm planning to get it.

thank you, this will help me alot

i have also noticed your picture is the 9900, im guessing u are a user of it aswell

as i mentioned, im moving to victor, so what other products would u compare, for examples regarding stringing, i use bg 65 at 25lbs i think, are there similar strings made by victor?

I think the only string from victor that I've ever heard would be VS850
I would suggest to stay with Yonex or go for Ashway Zymax though

Yes , I agreed . I got both rackets and the BS10 is prob the most similar out of the BS and SW series. I would string BS10 with BG80 while I strung my NS9900 with BG65ti. to compromise the stiffness ......

MX80 is probably a good choice as well. I think VS-800 is a .70mm string, although I have never tried it, I like VS-850...

Thanks guys , you've been helpful, i shall soon be looking into this

Also, in the above post i mentioned my style of play, would u still recommend either bravesword 10 or meteor X80 ?

Why are you using NS9900, other than the defensive part I don't see it meshing with relaxed, controlled and deceptive?

**t3j_sb** · 04-22-2011, 05:49 PM

i have it because of its light weight feel, which enable me to move it quicker for defending and deceptions. but the head isnt very heavy. im looking for a light weight racket, maybe with a stiff or stiffer shaft, as light as the 9900 and maybe slightly more head heavy. any ideas ?
