I also think the 3U feels heavier than most other 3Us (but I had the same feeling with the 3U Arc-7) ... I don't have an unstrung piece close to measuere though ... /Twobeer
Similar to AT-900P, if you were to smash with your arm instead of wrist, on little power can be generated. Thanks.
The Arc-10 I have felt alot better with NBG98@26x28 and NBG95@28x30... I think it feels much better than the ARC-7.. More powerful for attack! But I still thinks it feels heavier than other mid-balanced 3Us (not head heavy, just a bit heavy overall). Net-play and flicks feels very nice with it.. apart from that I think the Mizuno TC700s I have is better on everything (defence, fast-play, power-smash, wrist-smash and control of sliced shots).. I am abit dissapointed.. Not a bad racket by any standards, but I guess I expected more from yy's latest tech. /Twobeer

I saw a crack!!! No, just kidding! You will love or hate the racket, two extremes! Have been using it for a couple of weeks, and each time I longed to go back to court again, to wack my opponents to ----.... Thanks.
Yes, I will definitely say that. It is for wrist player. Wrist players will love the racket, while arm/should player will hate the racket because they will think that it is not powerful enough. Thanks.
Same with all rackets then. If your not a wrist player then you aren't performing proper badminton techniques.
There are many arm players in this forum including me so does that mean our badminton techniques are bad? NO. That is probably why i prefer NS9000X and AT900P.
ER yes it does mean your technique is bad. try swinging your racket with just your arm/shoulder and then just with your wrist. You will find that you can swing the racket faster using just your wrist. Just using your arm shoulder is what gives people shoulder problems and tennis elbow etc. You will get so much more power from your strokes Anyone who has had proper coaching will be wrist players
yup, agree with yoda, the key to badminton strokes is the wrist. a proper badminton shot always involves the wrist.
I too have to agree. Also in consideration is the pros which should be able to use any racket besides the one they prefer.
Thx... more pics... Will get it strung on Friday (thx Ah Shum), and will get to play may be Tuesday. Hopefully, it will be good.
