    Best racket ever . Review over ;). Well I picked this up just yesterday and after 2-5 rallies I already got ued to it. Quick it was. bg-80 strung it was with. I even got a black stencil yonex on whitw strings. Obviously how it lookms is already crazy. the orange flash towel grip helps to :). So now on to the review.
    Warmup: Quite weird on the first rally. But 2-3 rallies after I felt the power. The hits were so effortless and they would go where I wanted them to ;).

    Game time: Probably the quickest racket out there. My smash return's my recovery was incredible. I played doubles at a tournament yesterday and went 2 - 2 . (My real partner wasn't there). But I also played singles against some singles player's and let me tell you the power I generate with that racket is also comparable to a arc10 maybe even more power.

    Overall:
    Manoevurability 10/10
    Power : 9/10
    Feel: 10/10
    Control: 9.5/10:eek::eek::eek::eek:

    I have not tried many other strings, i use only NBG95, BG65 and BG65ti. They work fine with NS9900

    Honestly, this is not the best review of the racket on this forum . You need to be more specific and you cannot review a racket unless you played with it for at least 3-4 hours. You need to tell us what level of play you are at ? what tension /set up the racket had ? The specs of the rackets and you need to give a comparison of another racket you used (as a control)? etc . How the racket feel ? I doubt a racket would help you that much on the court , is more to do with self-believe and getting that confident on court which enable you to react a split second quicker. I also own a NS9900 and I can say that I would rather spend the $170 on more coaching to improve my game (skills that last a life time) then getting another NS9900

    I agree. Sorry I was unspecific . I like this racket. I was regretting buying it . but i use da friends arc 10 and a friend armortec 900 T and I rather my ns9900. I use NBG 95 at 25 LBS of tension currently. I am getting coaching next year all year long group program with former professional player. (National) I am on the school team. I also play whenever I can go to the local university to play all day long. But I also play soccer (Football) and Lacrosse. So im pretty packed. And yes Mental preperation is important.

    For the best doubles racquet around surprisingly little pro's seem to use it. I bet AT900P outnumbers it in users but perhaps I should take a peek in the latest picture threads(?) ... Did notice Rajiv Ouseph and Raul Must use it in singles.

    You're right, actually double pro players seem prefer AT900P than ns9900..
    Nova Widianto, Lars Paaske (changed now), Markis Kido (changed), etc use at900p, Yun Cai used to play with at900t, only a few pro players use ns9900...

    the most notable players using the NS9900 would be KKK/TBH, Mogensen, along with some women doubles players.

    Laybourn 9900 as well from 8000 I believe and some more ladies indeed. Don't remember who kept using TBH as the example of power from the 9900 but I could probably defend those "boms" he hit during the Swiss Open :D.
