true, but i would still love to go into a store and feel the racket before bying it. it really makes a huge difference sometimes. for eksample i bought a forza racket online (amour controle) a couple of years ago, and when i got it, i felt right away that it wasn't the racket for me. you can see a lot from the numbers, but its impossible to write down the exact fell of the racket.
with that investment on N90, i do believe you are forced to love N90. from the specs, N50 maybe suitable for me. been busy these couple of weeks, havent stop by at the shop to check it out.
Last Wednesday, I had the opportunity to try all the top Li Ning racquets. If I were presented a choice, I'd still pick the N90 Woods over the others
From what i see of the Li ning chart for Li ning rackets at world of sports, N 50 racket is the heaviest with 89-90g without string!
N50 Got a N50 and tested. Initial feel likes the Arc10. The difference stands out after during the games. Net play is accurate with little effort. String with BG80 and 25lbs. The bounce is good. Delivers a powerful shot to end court. Overall, a pleasant surprise. The N50 turns up sturdy and the feel during the match is robust. Decided to get a N90 too. Cheers.
whats is the feel to the N90 LN racket? is it good at the net as well? cause from what ive read, it seems to pack a powerful punch from the reviews i was reading. Well, i own a arc 10 now, just woindering if the N90 is head heavier than the arc 10? and is the shaft stiffer comapred to arc 10? thanks!
Latest info to share with Singapore badminton fans here: 10 & 10 shop is selling Li ning string now. Max effect of power play will be together with Li ning N-series racket with Li ning string.
I had my N90 restrung with the Li Ning 101 string. Er, I can't say I'm very pleased with it. For one, the Li Ning string is too expensive (SGD 26). Secondly, the Yonex BG-66 feels much better (to me).
Bro Oldhand, what string u use , i saw the Li ning , 0.70mm equivalent to Yonex BG 65 cost only Sing $15.
He tried the Li Ning 101N (AXJD046) string as mentioned in his post. The catalogue can be found here. http://www.badmintoncentral.com/forums/showthread.php?t=71738
N90 is head heavier than arc10, and has a less stiffer shaft than arc10. i;ve compared one of my friend's n90 with my 2u-arc10. the swinging speed and acceleration of n90 and 2u-arc10 is quite similiar, which means n90 is head heavier because n90 is 3u. the shaft, i'd say that 2u-arc10's shaft is really stiff. n90 is a lot more flexible than arc10(even 3u arc10). overall, i feel n90's stiffness and head-heaviness is very similar to 3u-at700(new version)---- although a little heavy, but very friendly to use. considering n90 is designed to Lin Dan's taste, its similarity to at700 is quite reasonable.
