    If you should leave this thread with the topic of D-900, then I shouldn't have come in talking about Woven 9 at all. :D

    And yes I agree with you man, the D-900 is tempting. But i have failed to persuade myself towards an NS9k, I wouldn't think I will succeed towards a D-900. :-D

    Let me get a bit more off topic before I leave: notice the FZ (forza) racket LUNDGAARD has been using? I'm a bit curious at that too....

    Want to buy, but no money....:(
    Would be getting one soon i hope, considering between the woven 12/8, laser 6800/6900 or D900. But most prob will settle for the cheapest. :D

    Dah! you shouldn't have told me. Now it's all your fault if my pocket gets shrinked.:D

    however, Woven 9 doesn't play nice in my hand. I say, in my hand. So please please don't generalize it. I like and am ok with almost all Yonex rackets, from MP99 & MP100 to AT700, AT800OF, AT800DE, and NS7000. I don't like NS8000, never tried NS9000.

    You'd say these rackets are from two extremes, from head light to head heavy. Yeah, but maybe because I'm not that advanced a player, after a week or two, I would get used to and fall in love with each of them.

    Trying out different rackets is as fun as playing badminton. So for this part, i'm always ready to give a new racket a try, as long as my wallet allows; for serious play, I'll stick to Yonex.

    I will take care of the Woven 12 by not playing with it. I'm happy with my new AT700s. :D

    you play with at700's? 4U? flexy and light?;)

    as for woven 12....the feel of the racket is good, if not great, but power is lacking...I'd say go for the 13, same/more feel much more power, still reasonable in defence

    Yes, 4U. Lighter, but the swing is actually comparable/similar to the D600 and 11. The feel/stability of the AT700 is very similar to the D600, that's why I like it. And it's definitely not flexy, on par with the D600 and 11.
