Is there going to be a big difference in power? I think Armortec 900 att is one of the best offensive racket out there, so I am not sure if the meteor x80 will be all that. But I do know Victor is catching up to Yonex; not only with their prices but also with the spec and technology they offer in the rackets. What do you guys think? I am a offensive player. Been playing badminton for about 8 years or so. I own lots of yonex racket such as: Armortec 900att, muscle power 100, arc saber Z slash, Nanospeed 9900. Also have others: Head metallix 10000, Caslone. I wanted to try out new rackets, so I got the Head metallix 10,000 but now I saw the meteor. I am wondering if it will be that powerful as described.
if you look on the shaft, it should say at900 power, not offensive but i think we get the idea... ryim hit the nail on the head technique and tension is what i find to be the strongest determinant of how "powerful" your shots are however, similar specs make it easier for your to adjust/overall feel of the racket so it's easier for you to adapt the techniques... my 2c
Yes, a meteor is very powerful, it'd probably kill us all. About the MX80...I'm not sure if its that powerful since no one here have tried it. But I would bet it's similar to the SW35. The AT900P is head heavier than the SW35 though. Other than that, I can't really tell you which is more powerful.
Yes tension n technique would be the factors for power but some rackets can't have high tension on them. I strung my armortec 900power to 29lb. I wonder if that's bad. I want a higher tension but I am not sure if the racket will last.
