    I wish the vh2000 is a little more headlight though, for better use in doubles.

    What's a good Nanopro 6600 replacement?

    Hi, I am mainly a doubles player, and for the last 3-4 years have used APACS Nanopro 6600 (4U G2), using BG85 string at 24lbs. I like the lightness, quick in defence, but still ok for attack. Doesn't feel very head heavy compared to my old Yonex AT700 etc.

    Now just wondering is the current replacement to the 6600, the 900? I hear all this talk about Lethal 70, Tantrum 200 etc, but don't know the real difference between them.

    So easy question, if I like the Nanopro 6600, what is the best replacement for it now?? I looked at the Yonex Nanospeed 850 but still felt too heavy.

    285+/-5mm. so not very head heavy. with extra PU I feel it is balanced.

    I cut the string of my Lethal Light 1.1 last nite. I felt I did not give it a fair go by having crappy string with lower tension on it, so this time asked my stringer to put on my ussual tension of 28lbs and finger cross it will perform a lot better. I really want to see if the shaft can handle it (not only the string but the extra bending pressure during play) as at the moment it just dont give me enough power to seriously consider it as one of my go to racket, and I think the string is just one of the factors.

    Nano 9900, Nano power 900 red/white. those are cheap and OK type. there might be some vibration issues - use low tension (22/23lbs) and extra PU grip to dampen them.

    Hey APACS-ers!

    Let's say I would like to get an APACS racket that resembles Yonex VT80, any suggestions?

    Thanks!

    Hello guys.. :)

    i wanna ask.. what type of Apacs racket that close in terms of performance to Armortec 900 Technique? * from the color and looks, i know that nano900power white almost looks like it, but what about the performance*

    and also, i'm interesting in the visible hollow series, and fall in love with the color scheme of visible hollow 1700, but i don't know about the performance, especially if u compare it with another apacs racket, is it good?

    i'm looking for a control racket, i want my smash to be more accurate, rather than more powerful.. :)

    thx guys :)

    VH1700 is out of production.

    T200/L70 will be to some extent close to AT900P in terms of performance. T200 might be slighly less head heavy.
