    I am currently using MP100 3UG4 and i am not sure if i should change to NS9000X 3UG4. Do you think that the change is worth it? I am an offensive player.

    It is a major difference. Slightly head heavy to head light racquet, different racquet materials, I think it's best if you tested it out first, otherwise it might turn out to be a waste of money.

    Head size are different also. NS9k-s has bigger frame if I remember correct. Also, like gunblade said, demo or try it out if you can.

    Is there a major difference between the smashing power between these two rackets or is a small difference?

    IMO i think the MP100 and NS9000X play the same even though the weight is different on both racquets.

    aren't u using the 2u ns9k-x right muslepower100

    I had a ns9k-x briefly, the power is good and defend is much better than mp100. But i feel like i have to swing harder, but back then my technique is not good. If your technique is good then i don't see any problem IMO.

    MP-100 is very different from NS9000X. The balance and its characteristics are just not the same.

    mp-100 is alot heavy than 9000x. If you a hard hitter type of player. should be using mp-100.

    Both are 3UG4 rackets with BG80 at 26x28lbs.
    Which one will have more power?
    Which one will have better defence?

    Mp100= more power , slow reflect/defence
    9000x= faster reflect/ defence, less power

    i found that with the 9000x it takes a while to adapt but wen u do it got some amazing power. i had a mp99 b4 and the power from the nano is better.
