My new acquisition Carbonex 8800 Power (1 week old). First time attaching pics... My post is in contrast to others, posted many photos of 1 racket. However, not much information is available about this racket. Also couldn't find when the racket was released. Appreciate if anyone can share more information about this one.
Hi j4ckie I would like to ask about your input comparing Ti.10 Yellow and Lining N90 Gen 1, since you own them both. Which one is head heavier and which one is stiffer? Are your N90 Gen 1 have old logo or new logo of lining ? Looking forward to read your input.
Thanks for the reply. I have tried Ti.10 2nd gen before, in my opinion, at the point of contact between string and shuttle, 2nd gen racket frame somehow has a whippy feeling on the 1/4 of shaft towards the frame. Do you feel it too on N90?
I have only hit a few shuttles with the Ti-10 yellow, so I dont really know how it feels in play. The N90 is not whippy though - you can feel the shaft flexing a little, that's all. The N50 has more of a 'whippy' feeling

Are you referring to the N50 or N50II ? I have tried N50II, and to me it has that whippy feeling. How about N50? I do not have any chance of trying N50. You are the right person that i should ask, since you have Ti.10 Yellow, N50 and N50II. I really like Ti.10 Yellow, but the price now is rocket high. I would better find a racket which is somewhat similar to it, and in my opinion it should be either Lining N50 or N50II.
I have no playing experience with the Ti-10, as I bought it more for collection purposes than playing. However, I can say that the N50 is similar in balance, but feels softer, and the N50II (while a slight bit stiffer) is head heavier. Personally, I'd take the N50II over the N50 - it's just a bit stiffer and doesn't have such an extreme whippy feeling on smashes.
I have purchased early Christmas and New Year presents for myself already. My Bank account are suffering right now, next year will give it a try though.. Seems that Victor Thruster 8000 might have a whippy feeling as it labelled mirroring Middle aged artillery, Catapult.
Another fall for Victor..hmmm..i'll just sit down on my chair n just looking at my yonex rackets,fair enough..Haha..
