    Could anyone suggest me a new racket? I've been using mp-99 for single and double for over three years now. I'm looking for another racket that is similar to mp-99. I'm considering nanospeed 9000x, since when i tried it, it just delivers so much power. I've tried armotech 700, and I didn't like it at all since it's really head heavy for me. It just didn't give much and control and it's not accurate. What I didn't like about my mp-99 is that it gives a poor backhand control (clear and drop, drive is okay) as oppose of using carbonex series which is more flexible. I often lose a point when my opponent give a high lift to the backhand side which to the point i couldn't use my overhead. I string with bg-85, didn't like bg-66 or bg-68ti. I'm more an all-round player who likes to drop and slice, clear, smash, netting, control, yeah about everything. I'm also considering At-900t from its good review, but never tried it.

    i think an armortec 900 would be suitable for you. If u like smashing when ever you get the chance get the power. If u like doing net shots and u like to do everything th technique is good for u. Both rackets are less head heavy than the at 700. I personally think the mp 99 is more similar to the power as i hav tried both.

    At700's not bad. It's really powerful, and your control wont be affected much at all if you get used to it. But.. it took me quite a long time to get used to it anyway.

    hah no i don't hate the at 700 its a really powerful racket. When i borrowed it from me friend clears were effortless and smashes were more powerful as well. But i just preferred the feel of the 900p. just a personal preference. and he asked for a less head heavy racket both the 900 is a bit less head heavy as well
