    Which is irrelevant without knowing the weight. The flashboost also had a BP of 310 and was a useless flyswatter...BP alone doesn't say anything

    During my short testing, the following is my findings:
    Smash: Ax99 4u = 900c (n99 didnt try before)
    I will say they are on par.
    But 900c smash much louder than Ax99, which is important to me, but may not be important to others.

    Solid feeling: Ax99 > 900c
    That's no better, that's only which one u prefer.
    HH feeling - bp: Ax99 >>> 900c
    HH feeling - dry swing: Ax99 = 900c
    Stiffness: 900c > Ax99
    Swiftness: Ax99 > 900c


    Ax99 4u, when in real game (not merely dry swing), it is as swift as my former 88d 3u.

    900c is pretty heavy (should be a 2u or close to 2u i believe) oso is pretty swift given its weight.

    Note that that's merely my testing and may varies to others especially people who spent more time on testing them / are more highly skilled.

    I thought you already checked the 2018 catalog posted in the other thread... 8000C is 3u 87g and n80ii 88g so basically only the BP matters.

    So over a 1% difference, more important than a 3mm BP difference then? Assuming those specs are correct

    Did you read my post? 12mm difference. 310mm (8000C) vs 298mm (n99 & n80ii).

    Apparently you misunderstood me. The 87 vs 88g difference is more significant than a 3mm BP difference.

    For the love of God, I'm not talking about the different balance of these rackets. You wrongly stated that a 1g difference was insignificant and that the balance was directly comparable, but a 1g difference is nearly the same as a 3mm higher BP, actually a bit more. That being said, LN specs have been wrong in the past as well - some of the rackets that should be very similar according to official specs are really different. The racket matrix is actually more helpful than the numbers.

    That is exactly my point here. You said that you wanted something more heavy than N99 and I have been trying to tell you than the 8000C is basically a n99 with more higher BP = a n99 Combat version. 298mm vs 310mm so even with 1g less than N99, like you said with a BP much higher, the 8000C will still feel more heavy than n99. I thought you would understand by then... I'm just trying to help you :rolleyes:

    anyone know what racquet was China mixed doubles player Huang Yaqiong is using at the denmark open?


    also what's the difference between windstorm 72 and 75?

    i know there different alphabets, is there a difference or is it just to differentiate the colours?

    She played a N99 (Aeronaut 8000) last time I checked.

    No clue regarding the Windstorms though.

    It’s the aeronaut 7000 instinct

    Someone posted a picture in the other thread. I like the colourway but it seems to be 5U

    The difference is 3g of weight (The model number usually corresponds to the weight in this line) and the BP. WS 72 has a BP of 315mm, WS 75 has a BP of 322. WS 75 also has a slightly larger grip.
