Just received Stern 808 Power. it really give a sharp smash, great drive, safe shot, drop shot is also good and the really good thing is this racket is really fast manouvrable. With its' price that come with string and 2 grips, this is really good deal.
I have Slayer 99 2U. Actual weight about 92 gram, but when you are swing you felt this racket very light almost like 3U racket. Swing very fast, bunch of power but don't lack at manuver. One things that this racket very unique, when you hit exactly at sweetspot you will hear very loud hitting sound compare to the others Apacs rackets. Racket strung with Polyfibre string Explosion B8, diameter 0.68 mm.
Hi guys, I was thining of picking up a bunch of Apacs rackets to test. I was thinking of getting the Lethal 70, Slayer 99 3U, Lurid Power 21 22 and 23. You think it's a good idea? I'm currently playing with a Voltric 80 and a Nanospeed 100.
Have you tried the Lethal 60/70 and Tantrum 200/300? If so, in your opinion, how does the Slayer 99 compare?
L60 and 70 i have. In term of power between this 2 racket, still prefer L70. L70 have much-much power but little bit lack of manuver compare to L60. T200 and 300 similar racket with same spec, but have different materials. Compare L70 and T200, i choose T200. Because this racket have ideal combination for speed and power. All apacs models have own character. But from this 5 models, L60, L70, T200, T300 also Slayer 99. I still choose T200.
By the way, which of you owns a 4U Tantrum 200? How does it play for you? As far as I can tell, 3U Tantrum 200 = Tantrum 300 (only comes in 3U I think). Obviously the 4U Tantrum 200 is lighter and should be better defensively?
That's very interesting, given the L60 = L70, and the T200 (3U) = T300. Can you please tell me where you heard otherwise, and/or better still, quote the (hopefully) reliable source? Thanks.
I have 3U T200. In you are person have fast reaction and playing more defensive then you must looking for 4U.
I know all this from my friends. Then i think he is very reliable. L50, 60 and 70 have own spec that designed by APACS for distribution reason.
What exactly are the differences (specs and material-wise) between the L60 and L70? Also, what are the differences (specs and material-wise) between the T200 and T300? Do you have them strung indentically with identical grips? If not, it's hard to compare them accurately.
Anyway, for me currently, my L60 is strung with Yonex BG65 at 27 pounds (although feels more like 25), while my Lethal 70 is strung with apacs slayer 66 at 26 pounds. They are both gripped identically. I find that they both have a very similar feel on hitting, even though they are strung at different tensions and with different string. I don't own a Tantrum 200, but if it's anything like the Tantrum 300, it will be an amazing racket. I can definitely feel the difference of feel between the Tantrum 300 and Lethal 60/70. The Tantrum 300 feels even more accurate than the Lethal 60/70 (for my own abilities anyway). It's a (near) perfect racket! I still sometimes prefer the Lethal 60/70, as it potentially gives me more power - I really enjoy smashing.
Hi , I would like to know if there are professional (advanced ) players who play with your racquets. If yes could you tell me if with which racquet they play . Thx
Whoa, awesome collection there. How would you rate the shaft stiffness of those against each other, and maybe against something like the AS8dx?
Hi GaryC, I can see you got a Lethal 70 and a Lurid Power 23 (adjustable handle!?). What are the other 3? By the way, I'll be interested in how you find the Lurid Power 23. Enjoy!
whoops forgot to mention what they are, they are lethal 70, slayer 99, lurid power 21, 22 and 23. i cant wait for tomorrows. ill let you know how i find the 23
Hi GaryC, Let us know what you think of the rest of the rackets too maybe give a brief on the spec on each racket and what you think after you play with them Are you a control player or power, single or double players,? Do you have fast swing? Thanks
Just back from a 2 hour session. Played with the Tantrum 300 and Lethal 70. Simply amazing rackets - I can't say which one is better overall. My consistency is getting much better, and I'm getting some great power out. These rackets are so good, I feel I'm cheating by using them. Nothing I've tried from Yonex or Victor even comes close.
