Hmmm so the only grip size is S2 and S3 right? Is there a S4 grip size? Cause my chinese coach son has the N55 racket and at the bottom handle of the racket has a small sticker stuck on to it "S4" below the Lining logo. The ones sold in shops had the grip size engraved onto the bottom handle but his just had a small sticker written S4 onnit. And I dont think it's fake, cause If I'm correct, he gets most of the rackets from the Chinese National Team (apparently is a very good friend of chinese national coach). Not to mention he used to sell alot of CP yonex rackets as well =P
Just bought a n70 in HK, what string should i use to get the most juice out of it? I'm a attack/tactical player type. I frequently simply use bg65 or nano95 at 25-26lbs.
Best is to stick to your existing BG65/Nano95 at 25-26lbs. That way you can immediately know what is the diff between your existing racket and your new N70. Secondly you will have your new Li Ning N70 covered under the 6 months warranty (i think their warranty range for weight is 25-27lbs if i am not mistaken) Use it for 6 months, then go for higher pound if you wish, with caution not to injured your wrist (due to higher pound rating one not used to) Cheers Hope u will like the N70 and write some review on it. It is by far the "less popular" N series bought by social players. SO all are curious to see a review on it.
Thanks tckang Here's my review on the "cosmetic" of the N70 (Bao Chun Lai). Pretty slick I'll string and see what gives.
N70 is not a bad racket, that's my secondary go to racket if there's such a term... I wouldn't say it's not popular among the team china players, I think BCL and CY both use this racket if I'm not mistaken... But ya, most people probably would buy either the LD N90, or FYF's N50 I think...
U r right that BCL uses N70. (CY is using N33) Anyway i never said N70 is not popular among China national team, just that it is "less popular" among social players, like us. And yes, among public purchase, N90 and N50 are the top sellers, followed by N55. Probably most of us wanna be like Lin Dan or at least own a LD racket, and wanna smash like FHF Cheers
According to the press photos Cai Yun plays with the N70... http://www.badmintoncentral.com/forums/showpost.php?p=1235397&postcount=80
N33 is developed based on CY's requirements and feedbacks. But in most tourney so far he has been using N70, designed based on BCL requirements. Maybe LN shd promote N70 as "racket developed for BCL, used by BCL and CY"? But CY uses N33 too in some practices...
Hi brothers: As i am an advance player, i am still deciding which racket to buy, N90 Lin Dan or N50 Fu Haifeng. Badminton fans here, who have use both rackets already , please share which one is stiffer and good for smashing .. As i am using rackets now like armotec 700 for double and ocassionly for singles too, I prefer to use a racket that is good for control and then sudden smash like what Lin dan always do..
I bought it at Racketshop, he has 1 or 2 units of each N series. I wanted to buy them all but his price tags are pretty stiff. You may wanna try KaiSheng store in Shen Wan Wah but he only opens at certain hours, however his prices are much cheaper.
This guy ripped me off with full retail 1680hkd and sold me separately the 3-racket bag at 180hkd. I just found out from the forum that the bag should come with it for free whenever you buy an N series. He gave me a nanogy95 for string however.... but still i didn't ask him to string my racket. Kaisheng store sells it at 1330hkd with everything. Be well informed where you shop...
U mean the bag i posted in the forum??? Err i am not sure if HK is the same package with China Mainland. I have seen European they got the package with N series + one racket full body cover only. So not necessary he ripped u off. But u r right that be alert when u shop for rackets. Check a few more shop before u buy.
I saw a customer who bought a N90 at the same time. He's got a special bag for free. Then i thought maybe I could have gotten one since I also have an N series. Also i had no choice, he was one of the only store who takes Visa, with an overcharge of 2.5%, grrr...
hey, do you happen to know which other shops in HK have the N series (preferably N90) rackets in stock?
