    I think pros can use any racket to win just that they use the one that fits them the most!!

    I agree.. I think Gao Ling loved the racket so she used it.. Before she was using NS9K Type S and now she's using the new ArcSaber 7. Which probably fits her game..

    Hello,

    AT900 T has better control compare to ArcSaber 7.

    Tetracross or arc saber? Arc Saber was 1480RMB, Tetracross I don't remember exactly, but whatever shuttle-house's price is with 24% discount....
    I didn't find the Arc Saber too light, but than I got the 2u version so that could explain it...

    The price you paid for is way is too much. That's even more than my AT900T JP when it was new. Arc7 JP which I am getting costs me around <$150 with shipping included.

    well, technically I probably could've ordered the arc saber 7 from shuttle house , but than I don't want to go through the hassle of shipping it to china as I'm in china right now for a few months and I dunno the chinese address in english etc... so since they have that in stock, I might as well buy it and pay a bit more... I am pretty sure if I waited till other code of Arc 7 comes out it will be cheaper since they charge a premium on JP code rackets... AT900 china code is only around 1100 here....

    Well, you got to go to the right shops to get the correct price. For BBE, I just checked, you paid a premium because the JP is imported.

    For the AT900 CH code, my JP isn't that much more factoring the shipping included.

    ya I know I paid a premium on it because of it being JP code, but than I didn't really want to go buy it online because I didn't know my address here, if I'm in vancouver it would be different as I would just buy from japan instead...

    They only cost USD145 at racket.co.jp, so I guess it's not that expensive.
