I just started to used apacs racket while my friend told me is good.. So I gave a try and apacs racket is good.. Worth to get. Before I using apacs, I using Impact ArcForce 10...

    Well for the significant price difference, the Apacs rackets are value for money. That said, some comments for e.g on Edgesaber 10 is that it feels a tad too hollow.. hmm Apacs is supposed to be sister company to Proace if i didnt rem wrongly.. shouldnt be too far off i guess?

    Some clones from Apacs actually perform better than the yonex version. Apacs Nano900power is a good example

    @phandrew
    Which Nano 900 Power did perform better than the yonex version?
    the red one or the white one or both?

    I am quite surprised by this because my Nano 900 Power Red comes nowhere near an AT900P.

    Both red and white can perform better. It really depends on the racket get you because it may be better or worse than the yonex version

    @phandrew
    Are you trying to say that Apacs does not have quality control, so that each rackets from the same model does not 90% identical in performance and quality?

    Although Yonex rackets from the same model would not be 100% the same as the others, however 85%-90% similarity is quite tolerable.

    Apacs doesn't have strict quality control but they still do have it so the racket performance may vary a bit

    Thanks for the replies to my question. Yah thats true, the 3 nano 900 power i bought vary slightly. I am refering to the prints one the racket. I have nv played with a yonex at900p but from what I feel from nano900p is that it seems not bad. Tried apacs nano700Ltd as well. Not a bad racket either.

    @phandrew
    Which rackets from APACS which have similarity in terms of offense and defense with SOTX Woven 9 and Woven 11?

    @at900_power
    Does Nano 700 Ltd has better offense and defense than Nano 900 Power (red)?

    I am not sure which apacs would match W11 and W9 but the Armor Muscle Pro and Pro Furious series might be of interest to you.

    I may not be able to give you a very good answer. I only stroked with the 700Ltd for a while. My feel is, its is slightly more head heavy than 900p. I tried smashing and lobbing. Both feels good.

    Nano900Power is a very good racket. it's 4U plus slightly head heavy. so is easy control plus power. is more to a even balance racket although Apacs print "head heavy" on it's shaft. if u really want Head Heavy, can try out Visible Hollow 1300 or 1500. this 2 model is more Head Heavy than the Nano900Power. this what the almost the same feeling with i play with Armotec900. Stiff + Real Power + Slow abit + a bit hard to Control, if we compare to Apacs Nano900Power. but this is normal for Head Heavy racket, so u must used to it else u'll found that Armotec900 or VH1300/1500 is too moving too slow... just my personal opinion :p
