    It's probably best if you look on the forums and reviews.

    If you want power and a light frame (oh and can flex a stiff racquet) then your probably looking at any of the following;
    Ashaway Kevlar
    Carlton Fireblade Elite
    Karakal MTEC70
    Karakal SL70
    Prince TT Warrior
    Yonex Nanospeed 9000

    As for whats most like a MP99, well a Yonex MP99 would be my suggestion if your wanting to replicate that.

    I have the pw 12 and I love it. Before that I was using mp100 and it's really an offensive racket. The pw 12 is really different if u can try it. For offense, it is not a very powerful racket but it can give u a fast swing every time u smash or clear. So, it give u advantage in fast attacking. For defense, I play alot better with pw 12. May be it's not a stiff racket and not a head heavy racket as well. If u want a all-around racket u should go for pw 12.

    my vote is on the superwave 11. i played back to back pw11 vs sw11, and sw11 just feels more manuverable and consistent rac to play with. also feels a bit more powerful than pw11.

    i own Power Waves 12 and i like it very much. Power is there but i need to brush up defense skill. Overall for me, its quite balance just slightly head heavy and most importantly the feel is there for me. :D
