Tried the Impact Arc Force 10 today....finish looks good....definitely feels more solid than the Apacs Edge Saber 10....but quite demanding as the racquet is long and rather head heavy....more powerful but sluggish....had to hold higher up the handle to use the racquet effectively....must be i too weak liao.....need to pump more iron liao.... Alternatively i might have to wrap the grip thicker as i removed the original grip before putting a new grip over the wooden handle. Nevertheless a good buy at 65SGD for racquet + Yonex BG66 + Karakal PU Super Grip. Those who find then Apacs Edge Saber too light and looking for a more head heavy racquet at a good price can try the Impact clone. However i cannot comment on the durability as it is still intact after using it for 2 games of badminton. Hopefully it doesn't break too soon (as Sgbad was commenting on the weak shaft).
Hey, dont say that man, i have heard from Punchclear on how good a player are you. Maybe the one i got has some defect or something.
Don't believe him... his is a mistaken impression By the way, I would still vote highly for Impact racquets. As mentioned earlier, if they weren't so light, I'd probably choose them.
wow, thats not a bad deal, where u get them? For impact racket the one i have good impression are the bamboo series i think. Woody design on the shaft, looks cool and the i like feel of the racket.
Hope you don't mind me linking the thread to your photos....do you want me to acknowledge you in the thread? If need be i will. Thanks once again for your nice photos and photography skills.
haha, too late liao, just got the apacs nanosaber 10. Suppose to be a stiffer version of apacs edgesaber.
I'm using this racket too. Bought it at Bangsar,KL. Strung with BG66 27lbs. First I strung it 24lbs but it seem like lag of something. So I strung it 27lbs, and now it become much more better.. It worth to get.. I had crashed my racket with my partner on the head frame. Only the paint chip off while it haven't cracked although I crashed with my partner racket quite hard. The next I wanna try is Impact Arcforce7. It lighter that Impact ArcForce10.
I recently bought an ArcForce 10 and strung it 25lbs (using KX string). I think in my opinion the AF10 is better than the Fleet NanoSaber10 in term of handling. The Fleet NanoSaber10 is light head compare to the AF10. AF10 is much more heavy head and true it is much more demanding to use u need time to really get the hand of it. Comparing to my YY ArcSaber10, I could say that the AS10 is more balance than AF10. Can't really say about Apacs ES10 as have not try it. Overall the AF10 is quite reasonable for those wanna save some $$$.
So, we have: EdgeSaber 10 ArchBlade 80 ArcForce 10 and shidloads of fake ArcSaber 10s Did I miss anything out?
