    Not too sure about braveswords or superwaves...I tried Meteor 70 and the feel is very similar to my Lethal 60.

    I believe the Lethal 90 has the same hex frame shape to mimic the Braveswords. So you can try that.

    Yup, it is a good string, but wanna try others. Previously I once try Apacs Slayer 66, it kinda have a smooth feel for me but dont have a good repulsion. I just wondering if there are any other good Apacs strings out there.

    yeah, Apacs has release Apacs Newtech 0.66 or Repulsion 0.66 which are good.

    I'm not sure how good APACS' strings are as from previous experience with one of its 0.66 strings, it ain't that great. It felt very dead even at a mere 26 lbs on that one. To me, the ZyMax strings are the next best strings after Yonex :)

    In other news, I'm really enjoying my Lethal 70. Been playing with it nearly exclusively for the past week or two.

Which of these is the best : Apacs Nano 900 power white/red, Nano 9900, Finapi 88 or Edgesaber 10 red version(since the white version is out of stock :()? Please reply!

    If you really want to try Apacs racket, try it's hi-end instead of those clones. Finapi 88, ES10, Nano9900 are all clones.
    since you have used SW37 which is an attacking racket, try Tantrum 200/300/500 or lethal 60/70/100, they all hi end racket, and good in attacking.

    LightSaber, have you seen a Lethal 100 in Malaysia? I think it's a rare piece as I rarely hear about it.

    The Lethal 100 is a relatively new racket, so that's probably why. It just arrived to Apacs Canada this month :rolleyes:

    I agree with LightSaber, don't use those clones. You're already in Canada so shipping should be quick from Apacs Canada. Try either the Lethal 70 or the Tantrum 300, they're great rackets and quite possibly the best rackets that Apacs Canada has available now.

    Hello,

    Does anyone know where to buy Apacs rackets in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam? I'm trying to see if they are cheaper there than Singapore or Malaysia. Thanks.

    Thanks for the reply guys, but i want low ends because i don't want anything too expensive.. and since the low ends/clones are 2 for ~100$, i'll go with the low ends, but as soon as i have money i'll try the lethal 70 :p

    Me too seen that Lethal 100 in Malaysia. Anybody can reveal the Lethal 100? I want to buy new attacking racket. I'm currently using APACS nano 900 power white and edge Z-Saber. Both are 4U I guess coz it written there is 84 +/- 2g. My feeling for 900 power is vibration and need fast swing to generate the power. Edge z-saber is more head heavy good for control and smash better than nano 900. I've been fed up not generate enough power during attack and all shuttle return by opponent. I need more offensive racket. Same I thought to buy 1 of the bravesword series racket which is more offensive and fast swing but a bit expensive for me. I've try Voltric z-force is too demanding racket.

    guys, don't get L100 because it's too heavy. you are better off buying L70/90 or Tantrum 200/300 or if you want the latest one then get Tweet 6000/7000/8000 or Tantrum 500 or lethal 110.

    I tested Lethal 100 recently and was disappointed. It's a complete new design with its 3 point strengthening system and therefore does not play anything like the other Lethal racquets which i feel are far better. Lethal 100 looks similar to Slayer 99 and makes no sense whatsoever in terms of the Lethal range.
