Still would you say that Woods Trimach was betterHello, I have been playing with Tectonic 7C for over 6-7 hours spread over 4-5days. Here is my humble opinion about the racquet.
Before that ,I would like to say my usual racquet is n9ii and sometimes when my partner takes the back I would switch to 3d Calibar900i or n7ii Lite.
String -Kizuna D61 at 26.(trying for the first time)
My go to string is bg65Ti .
Kizuna D61 gave me the feel of Bg66um but bg66um is 0.65 whereas this is .61 .
Bg66um had very poor durability for me,let's see how long this lasts,shall update later.
First couple of matches I was struggling with my shots,some went out ,net shots weren't precise.All this while,one thing was constant, smashes were powerful and loved the sound it produced.
Second day was better, back to my own game.
Overall now ,after 6-7hours of play,I have got accustomed to the racquet. Can't comment on the 5 o clock and 7 clock flex of frame but what I can surely say is , I have been able to deliver excellent overhead slices,smashes are accurate and more powerful than n9ii and my net shots are precise.
Its hard to believe that it was the same one I was struggling with on my first day but now it seems to be a simply brilliant.
Some slices are such a gem that let aside my opopnents who are unable to lift it, I am myself unable to believe it has crossed to the other side and dropped so close to the net. Drives are alright.I am little weak in defence hence while defending, rather than trying to hit to the back court i try to return as flat as possible and place it on the sides and oh man they were accurate.
After the match today ,while we were packing our things to leave,few of the guys who i was playing with,came and had a look at my racquet which was on a chair next to me .
Now,it makes me wonder whether it is because of the racquet or the excellent repulsion and power of the string D61.
To be honest ,it won't be a fair trial for n9ii as it was always strung with Bg65Ti or Nbg 99 hence have placed order for D61 ,once strung then I shall be able to judge Tectonic better.
Some where on Internet its mentioned its stiff but honestly ,I couldn't feel any stiffness nor is there any arm ache or elbow pain for me after its continuous use which I have had using Yonex stiff racquets after long hours of play but then again stiffness of Yonex and Li ning are different.
Just like other high end Li ning racquets Tectonic7C is also an expensive one. I cant ask/suggest everyone to definitely add this to their arsenal as I am myself just exploring it but those who love n9ii specs may find it rather easy to adapt,at least i did. I have been using n9ii for nearly 2yrs now.
However,one thing I can suggest is ,do try out the D61 string. It has been a gem of a discovery for me.
