    I mean, why do so may pro players use Ti-10? It's not even really popular around club players(maybe, too good for us?)
    Like, what is there in Ti-10 that Pros like about?

    It's a great racket but hard to come by today. The pros don't have that problem as they receive their rackets direct from Yonex. A lot of consumers just want the latest and "greatest" rackets whereas it's likely pros will want to stick with one frame that they like.

    Yeah but although this happens the sponsor still does push them to use newer rackets - even though they may not particularaly like the racket - because of advertising :D.

    Although I think it is a good sacrafice from the players point of view :D

    Hmmm, me too. I know in tennis a lot of pros use a frame they like with a new frame's paintjob. Does this happen at all in badminton?

    Does li ning make racquets if yes what will LD use if no will he still use AT700
    This may answer the previous question but if he uses what li ning give him won't he just use at700 frame with li ning styling and colours

    it is a fantastic racquet.

    if you read some reviews you'll see the general reaction has been very favorable.

    That was way back in the day, check the posting date. Nowadays, the users are more scarce, but they're still there.

    Never really seen this.

    Yeah Li Ning are making their own rackets. LD will be using there rackets :D. But I'm not sure how similiar it is to the AT 700

    Can anyone post a picture of Li Ning racquet?

    I saw in Sudirman Cup, the female players such as Wang Lin and Wang Yi Han are struggling with Li Ning racquet making lots of unforced errors or blunders.

    I wonder.. many profesionals guys use Arc10, while many public dont like Arc10 that muc.. Is the profesionals players really enjoy the Arc10 or do they get paid/contract just to use Arc10 while playing?

    their designs are ugly...., but we do not know the performance.....
    Woods 90 seems having very short grip.....
    However, lindan looks good with AT700......:D
