    My list

    Here's my list:

    In my bag, in my car and currently in use: Carlton Airblade 2000

    Planning to buy: Yonex Carbonex 21 SP or Yonex MP77. Still thinking.

    I don't think I'm gonna buy so many racquets, 2 is enough I think. I'm not that good at the game. I love the game so much tho...good exercise after work.

    Well we need 'em because we need backup just in case. But we keep on buying over the years and testing out. So we have a collection
    other than that...I think it's just cause we might be fanatics. :D:D

    Small collection

    An RSL lover here.

    1 Prince ICE-Ti (stock string) (already gave it to my sister)
    1 RSL Titanium Attack 3220 (3U-G4) (with chipped paint, M68@23lbs)
    2 RSL Millenium Heat Ti 4900 (3U-G5) (one has a gash on the head at the 2o'clock position, paint is cracked and I don't know how much structural damage was sustained. The mishap happened earlier today, I still smashed with the damage 4900, feels nothing is wrong, no loss of power so I just had it retensioned to RSL-Ti 650@19lbs from BG-66@23lbs. The other one is the backup strung with BG66@21 lbs.

    Rackets in bag (In sequence of the most favourite to the least):

    1. MP99 (3U) (Accurate, powerful when swing it properly, sensitive)
    2. Gosen Roots Gavun Aermet 3600 (3U) (Light, extreme good at drive/clear)
    3. Ti 7 Light (3U) (Similar structure as Ti 10, slightly flex than Ti 10, take it as 3U/Regular version of Ti 10)

    In term of stiffness: Ti 7 Light > MP99 > Gosen Aermet 3600

    Rackets not in use/Wait for restrung -> resurrection
    1. ISO Swing Power 900 SR (3U)
    2. Aerotus 110

    In term of stiffness: Aerotus 110 > ISO Swing Power 900 SR

    See, all are 3U rackets.


    Rackets for sale/put aside/not suitable to me in this moment:
    1. Carbonex 20
    2. Carbonex 21
    3. Carbonex 20 Muscle (3U)
    4. ISO Tour 800 (2U)
    5. Ti 10 HK (2U) (Rare version, like it but definitely not for weak-waist player like me.)
    6. Gosen Roots Gavun 5000Ti (3U)
    7. RSL Millennium Attack Ti 3200 (3U)
    8. ProKennex Carbonpro 787 (3U)
    9. Carbonex 9 Tour

    Rackets kept as milestones of my badminton playing:
    1. Yonex B750 (1980s)
    1. Carbonex 8 (Late 1980s - 90s)
    2. Gosen Roots Gavun 5000Ti (3U) (Since Millennium)

    Wow you guys sure have been playing long. Nice collection of rackets you guys have. As a student, I have little budget for rackets and so have only recently got 2 rackets after I have been using a Carlton Aerogear 18

    Current Rackets
    Yonex Mp 23 (the recently released one)
    Yonex Carbonex 8600 light

    Retired Rackets (But Useable)
    Carlton Aerogear 18
    Yonex Carbonex 8

    I'm in the same boat as Fend. I'm still a student so I haven't played for very long and don't have much money to spend. Only time I can get rackets is when my parents' friends go to China and buy them for about 20-30 dollars cheaper than here in the U.S.

    So far I have:

    Yonex B-460(?) - Can't remember what model it was and I don't know where I put it
    Yonex Isometric 63 MF - My first "real" racket sorta
    Yonex MP 88 - My good old muscle power
    Yonex Armortec 700 - Just got this a few weeks ago :)
