Interesting sight here. Most people are opting for 'power' rackets, mostly AT900P. I use a lot of Carlton Powerblade Lite for mixed doubles. Reasons : Cheap, durable, fast. I used to use the old Iso900 SwingPower SS for doubles as well, it was relatively headlight at that time and generate enough power for smashing. Now I have acquired a Ti-10-2nd, but I am quite reluctant to use it, but it is definitely good for the power play of men's doubles.
Bought a 3rd gen Ti10 last week from Spore(KL sold out, forever!!) WOW, it is everything I wanted in a badminton racket!! Speed, power, accuracy.... Like most guys, I am also into raw power. SO when I learned that the Ti10 is head light,... not interested. But after reading so much about the racket in this forum, decided to have a go. WHAT HEAD LIGHT??? I think it is more "balanced" than anything. I don't know how u measure it and I don't care really. It is just, RIGHT!!!! Best part of it was the ease of use. It is so easy to get use to it, unlike my other rackets (NS9000x/ARC10). Dang, I am so enjoying my game now and find myself waiting for mondays and thursdays (my badminton nites) to come quickly.
TI 10 third generation. Also, the only racket of mine that actually have scratches and chip damage on it:crying:... damn those stupid smashes down the middle between my partner and I.
I just bought RSL X2 Blue. Very beautiful racket. I never thought a blue, silver, and yellow combo could be so attractive. So shiny. Most importantly, it's great for doubles.
