    Excellent defence and control, worst full power performance.
    This is what the racket is.
    Not what I would buy.

    This is a girl racket hahaha.
    GaoLin is using it. I think ZhangYaWen also use it. It is used by lady players.
    Men players all use Ti-10 or Armotec series.

    My hand power is not as strong as the Pro men players. I guess my hand power is probably similar to Pro lady onli.

    So no choice lor, i cannot use the Pro men racket....so sad.

    It even says on lots of Japanese online racquet shops that it's not for hard-hitting men. I think that the newer versions of this series will also lack power over control. >_>

    Alright, I got my Arc Saber!!! xD

    Got it like2 hours ago and rushed back to school to try it out. Had about 30min but it was a little bit out of my expectation. Originally, I used at900t but I found that I'm not at the level to use that yet so I decided to use Arc Saber. IN MY OPINION.. I do better drops and clears with the arcsaber compared to when I used the at900t. However, smash are kind..weak...but considering I was playing with jeans, a coat, without warmups and had only 30min. It might be even better than I expected later on. Anyway. more news later =]

    No jeans lol!!! Bad for you! =) The racket probably has not fully broken in yet. After spending like a few hours using it, then you eventually feel the racket beginning to respond to you and you would be able to adapt.

    That's what I noticed with my rackets when they are new.

    Well it's cuz I had 30min left to try it out xD and I was so tempted to use it after waiting 2 months...so I just jumped on the court and tried it out. I'm gonna have a pratice tonite. 2 hours. So I'll be fully testing it tonite xD If it gives good feedback. i'm gonna use it for sunday's tournement.

    After giving it another try last night (sorry, AT900T, i still love ya), I realized that my shots were much more accurate, esp. on smash return.

    I think I start to like this racquet :)

    Chong Wei was given to try and use it on court. But he still prefer his AT900Power. Not that ArC7 is not a good racket. It can be better.

    I restrung the Arc7 with BG85 @22.5X25 lb and test it again today. I can clear much better and smash more powerful. However, it still dose not have the smash power of NS8K, NS9K, Cab30ms.
    Conclusion:
    A total defensive player's dream. Great for setting up shots in double. A good racquet to buy if you know what you are doing.
