I used to play mostly with my AT 150. I've been pretty much satisfied with it that's why I bought 2 of these. (I don't like changing racket much.) But after trying an even-balanced racket (one of the Muscle Power series), I discovered that my defense was maximized. I did a little research to find something cheap but with great quality.
That's how I discovered Carlton Powerblade Tour. It was the greatest. Although my smash has been compromised, the control and defense made up for it.
The speed of the racket was superb! I can easily flick tight drop shots and do net kills. My clear was really strong that sometimes it goes out (meaning I need a little more time to get used to it). My fast drives have improved ... and drop shots even better!
It's a racket for doubles game. Now I'm salivating at Arcsaber 10 because it's also even balanced. I just wish someone will give me one for my birthday. c",)
