unfortunately, to flex the X shaft i have to swing at maximum power, even more than maximum they make my stamina exhausted earlier:crying: even more, the shuttle speed seems the same as i used the S with less swing power. But to compensate it, i usually lower the tension by 2 lbs for X.
No problem for Jens to get an S if he wanted to.. I think he likes the überstiff feel (he used to use AT800OF as well).. /T
Hey.. I got a ns9k this week.. Played only one day.. Seems like an awesome racket.. But unfortunately, I had a couple of minor clashes with my partner... The paint seem to get chipped off very very fast... Can someone tell me if this is a known issue with the racket.
yes...it is known issue with paint chips easily with this racket..... BEWARE......it breaks easily during clashes....!!!!
Given his physique, Jens could probably wield a sledgehammer to the same effect I've often wondered if he'd have gone on to greater heights had he taken up tennis instead. Anyway, he doesn't need to use a short-grip on his racquet
yeahh, i agree the paint chips easily. but for crash, my X still tough enough, even clash with the floor and scratch the frame anywhere, once i've clash with the floor and produce a little spot fire, still survive, just a smooth crack on top frame but no problem
What the...? lol how hard did u swing? be thankful that the spot fire didnt come into contact with the shuttle! XD
fire sparkling when the top frame clash with the floor, it's still far away from the birdie. that's just happened once, never happened again.
