The Chinese love to call such rackets as desserts rackets. Everybody loves desserts. User friendly, easy to get used to rackets.
Both gonna be W2 category. Might have to wait for the T7C for a 3U Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk
Well had my first round with the TC75EX, and first impressions, it is a carbon copy of the N9II with new decals and tension rating of 35lbs, nothing else. Same 8.5 stiffness shaft, same power, same feel, nothing new. Wet BP with [my string setup which is a GT5 at 26x28] and [grip setup- factory grip removed, a layer of electrical tape, two layers of cushion wrap and a layer of Overgrip] was 304mm. Also got my N55 strung up with the GT5 at 26x28 but the stringer is such a crappy stringer, that I don't think it is even 20lbs, string feels dead, I feel now that it is high time that I get my own stringing machine. It is a pain everytime I have to tell him to get the tension right. I had to go for plastics as the feel was even worse while I was playing with feathers. So wet BP was what surprised me [same setup as the TC75EX] 315mm. I mean both racquets were 295mm and with the same setup show a very different BP. Even still I used the N55 exclusively for singles and for that it was perfect for time I played with it. I shouldn't comment more because the tension is not my usual, but still the feel of the racquet was very good, didn't feel like a head heavy racquet (or maybe my VT10DG has trained my wrist a lot). I might cut the string because it feels dead AF. I will play with the TC75EX for 2 weeks until I move to the next racquets which would be the AN7000 and TC70B Edit: Just received my weighing scale and plenty much surprised how big a factor does BP plays in the feel of a racquet. N55- 89gm wet TC75EX- 91gm wet VT10DG- 89gm wet Still while swinging VT10DG feels much heavier while swinging. Meanwhile the AN7000 is indeed a 4U, dry weight( factory grip removed) was around 79gms. Edit 2: I want to correct myself about the TC75EX and N9II similarity, after having good 2 weeks of play with the TC75EX Head weight of the TC75EX is 39 gms dry, and of the N9II is 38gms dry. Also TC75EX definitely stiffer than the N9ii Dry weight(bare wood, unstrung) of N9II S1 grip size is 82gms, and that of the TC75EX S2 grip is 84gms Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk
TC75EX wet weight of 91g seems good. If it's a carbon copy of N9ii, I might be getting 1 too but sadly the 1 selling here weight 91g dry...
One of my daughters are using 4U ax77’s and she’d like to try out a 3U racket and slightly more flexible. She’s testing my n9ii now, but I’m thinking maybe the lighter 70b would be better. So, how does the 70b compare to n9ii/TC75 and n7ii/TC70? Also, anyone know the headweight of 70b, same as TC70?
Just ordered the tc75c. Can't wait to try it out when it comes in!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Headweight- TC70B 36gms N7II(TC70) - 37gms TC70B stiffness is similar to the N9II. Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk
Have you managed to get your hands on the turbocharging 75? I am looking to get something similar to the n9ii, can’t find of those now, wanted to get the 75EX, but now that u said it is stiffer then I might have to look at other rackets or 75 already
It is just slightly stiffer than the N9II like an 8.4 stiffness rating because in the N9II while swinging it I could feel the shaft flex, and on the TC75EX, the flex is there but not as much as the N9II, and not as stiff as the N7II, it is somewhere in between both of them . As far and as much I know, TC75 is a renamed N9II. Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk
On the lining catalogue, the 75 and 75EX are categorized together, thought that I’ll get the 75EX for a fresher color look since I used to play with n9ii and went to sell it off to try different rackets. Guess I will just have to get the 75 then with the same color ways and hopefully the same head heaviness and stiff level..
Had my first session with the Aeronaut 7000 S2, and have to say it is a great racquet. Now with my findings and comparison with the AX88D 4UG6 Dry weight (bare wood+ unstrung) - AN7000(79gms) AX88D(78gms) Head weight(unstrung) - AN7000(38gms) AX88D(37gms) Now both racquets were strung with the LN No 1 at 26 lbs. After stringing, and gripping it( 2 layers of foam grip + Gosen Super tacky grip) Total weight- AN7000(89gms), AX88D(84gms) Head weight- AN7000 (40gms), AX88D (39gms) Clears felt the same with both racquets, no difference at all, but AX88D felt much more smoother while swinging through air. Attack was much better on the AN7000(actually I used strips of athletic tape at 5'o clock and 7'o clock position on the AX88D which increased the head weight to 41gms, hence it felt better afterwards, hence if comparing stock setup, AN7000 wins hands down) Defence is a thing that depends from player to player, but for me AX88D was slightly better in defence than the AN7000. Also don't know whether my custom setup on the AX88D was making the difference, but AN7000 felt just about the same when it comes to stiffness, or it could be slightly more stiffer than the AX88D, or it could be the NAMD material which could be the reason. Anyways a great racquet by far, and we shall see if it could top my AX88D feel in coming sessions. Edit: the AX88D was 75gms dry that is after I shaved the wood to G6 Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk
How on earth u just managed to increase the weight 79grams to 89grams for lining and 78grams to just 84 grams for astrox??? Weight of the thinnest string would be min 2 grams (stringing would increase the weight by +1 to 2 grams) + a thin grip would be min 8 grams.. which means so roughly you will get min 12 grams increased with factory removed.. + your another form grip.. check again ur racket would weigh more I assume Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Just have this for now, after I break my string will click the unstrung weight. Sent from my SM-G965F using Tapatalk
Well I have to believe now.. but in my case it went the opposite way.. my lining TC50D raw weight is 83 and after removing the factory grip it was 78 or 79 grams.. after string and one layer of vector 5 cross grip it bumped to 89 grams.. I measured the vector grip and it showed close to 8 to 9 grams.. with one layer the racket was unholdable but after adding another layer I found it was good but the weight bumped to 94 grams Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
