hey nguyen, thanks for the reply. im intermediate/advanced level. I play with the 884u right now, its a great racket but its kinda head heavy and tires me during long sessions playing double mostly. So right now I'm mainly looking for a even balanced/headlight racket that also produces good enough smash.I'd ask what kind of skill level badminton do you have? How strong is your forearm/wrists. Everyone is different. If you're a beginner, don't even think about these two rackets. Develop your foot work skills, and work on your swing first before thinking about advanced racket. They don't magically solve your question. A person with a very strong fundamental will be able to wheel any type of racket. The % difference between racket to racket is very minimal. It all comes down to personal preference.

Hey nguyen thanks for replying again, yeah i think 700 might be better than 800 for me. Heard some mixed rumours about it being slightly head heavy. I think you’re right, i might go for the 4u versions might as well go all in for speed if im going for light/even balanced heads. Last but not least, any thoughts on the JS10? because i heard it’s just as fast and packs a harder punch than the 700I'd look at the nanoflare 700. Very friendly racket. It's enough to produce power even at 4U. I wouldn't try to smash hard. Work on placing your smash better for the kill.
I have a huge dilemma now between choosing between buying these two rackets. Some help and advice would be greatly appreciated. Planning to get 3u versions for either of them. Thanks guys
Did you buy a racket?
If you can handle very stiff rackets, I would say go with nf800 rather than jetspeed 10.
I dont think js10 is flexier than nf800. nf800 feels pretty stiff frankly, but wouldn't be as stiff as js10JS10 feels pretty stiff in hand when I was bending it. Is it acutally flexier than NF800 in play?
I personally think that many people here use "advanced" too inflated. IMO players at this level are for me players who don't need to ask here about rackets or any other equipment because their enviroment and anything related to badminton is also advanced. If you exclude asia and denmark (because they have too many people who play decent badminton) advanced player should get a 50% sponsorship of any brand in all these not key role countries for badminton.Int/advanced doesn't mean much to me as each country will have different standards to what that means. Someone mentioned they are advanced, and I agree- I wouldn't touch either racket unless you win like an E flight in an Asian country or a D flight in North America.
