If you can handle it..25lbs-26lbs might be good if you player with feathers. If it's plastics I think it's fine. Btw you reply so fast !
thx for the suggestion, antz and azn_123 (yeah, I am waiting for a conferece call... so... haha... nth happening atm)
Ah I see, do you have a NS9k S or X? I was wondering if you had the X could you do a comparision with the ARC10 and the NS9k X.
Lol MSN04, 23/25, so low!! Even my Arc7 is tighter than that and Alan is trying to copy my reference acckkk!! By the way, none of your rackets will be done first because my rackets is on the top of the list as top priority by default!! hahahahahahah
on top of the clashing/breaking list? wahahhahaha~! All my racquets were strung at 23 or 22 lbs... so I don't know.... well... I used to play with walmart 10-dollar racquet
ROFL!!! I don't think Wallmart was around here when you got the racket!! Maybe from Zellers or Sport Check ahahahhah!
I get much more power using forearm rotation than using my wrist, and I get more power from adding shoulder. I actually lose power if I try to snap my wrist. That's how it works for me. Sorry about being off topic.
was finally able to try the 10 today strung my 3UG4 10 with BG-80 at 24lbs. first impressions was how RED it was, but after a while it kind of grew on me. to be honest, the 7 is a better looking racquet! if the grip wasn't red then it wouldn't have been such a shock. on the first touch i thought "OMG, so (head) heavy" but after swing it a couple of times the heaviness disappeared. the very first contact with the cork was just plain solid! it reminded me when i first used the 700 minus the heaviness. like most, clears were quite effortless, smashes were much faster and more accurate (in terms of where i want them to go) and response time during defense was quick. was able to return smashes to the baseline or just whip it cross court without too much effort. shuttle placements wasn't much of a problem. net play wise, i was able to generate more spin on the shuttle but after 3 weeks off, net play was a bit of the bad side. the fast flat exchanges were really easy on the forearms and wrist. overall, it's quite similar to the 7 but on smashes and drives, the 10 requires less effort. hopefully when i have recovered from my flu i will be able to discover more positive aspects of the 10. while waiting for friends, some people had a feel for the racquet and was quite impressed with the weight of it. i've already have people queueing up for a little play. should i start saying "goo-bye" to the 900P? that is a hard question to answer! well, that's my 2 cents
Heh.. sorry to be out of topic in here, havent been into this forum for a while now.. I'm extremely interested in this AS10, and they havent have any of them in stock in UK but can u guys please tell me whether i should buy this racket from this seller? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2008-YONEX-JAPAN-ARCSABER-10-ARC-FIRE-BADMINTON-RACQUET_W0QQitemZ300209179148QQihZ020QQcategoryZ106460QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD2VQQcmdZViewItem?_trksid=p1638.m122 I would absolutely like to have one with a G5 gripsize.. =)
You should try this, http://shuttle-house.com/new-cgi/page2_i.php?mk=YO&hid=ARC10&lan=C, you can get discounts-here's another url for more info, http://shuttle-house.com/page_top_ENGLISH/Guide/PRICE.html. The stuff you get from this store is JP, I wouldn't want to risk my money with ebay. What they show on the site may not be the item you want eg. fake racquets. Best if you did a group buy with a group of friends or something so you can have a greater discount.
