    Hi guys!

    Try the new Millennium 7 series from RSL! It's packed with new and improved technologies that can even match any high end Yonex model at only a fraction of the cost. I now use the M7 7490. Try one today and feel the big difference! The new M7 series will certainly improve your over-all game!

    Hi guys!

    I do have high respect with the Yonex Nano series but unfortunately "we" find them not as durable in cases when rackets clash.

    Well, Carbonex 30 MS is not my truly weapon i guess, just be in my stock for a month, already sold it to my other friend.

    After testing it for a month, i just cant adapt to this 30 MS perhaps due to these characters

    1) It is just too balance, the frame is not that heavy(the shaft is thick compared to T10 or 21SP), so u need a lot of arm power to generate that explosive smash...and i dun have enough arm power :eek:

    2) It is long (not the shaft is long, but the holder or the grip), if u put side by side with T10 u can see the whole difference.


    so now i just bought T-10 from my other friend and very much get fond of it, and really match with my way of playing. Conclusion, T10 is much better compared to 30MS (thats why not many world player using it but T10 was used by most of Malaysian top player)

    i love my yonex nanospeed 8000.. but i have to admit that the nano series is not that durable compared to their muscle power and the like... but the control and power of the nano series is superb... ohh.. by the way.. this is my secong nano8000, since my 1st one got destroyed during a tournament when my partner accidentally clashed her racket with mine...

    My current MP23 w/ BG68Ti @ 23lb. Finally managed to get the feel, but things might as I'm thinking to change the string with BG80 soon. It's a good upgrade from my old school arm killer - Carlton Aerogear 616. My arm felt thankful nowadays.

    It will take few years before I can actually get those advanced, high-end rackets. :D

    NS8000 for singles, and AT800 OF for doubles. Though my favourite racquet is definitely the NS8K, coz I'm more of a control player, and it just suits my style very well.

    Never tried AT700 or AT900T, but going to have a chance to try them out soon.

    The Woven 11 is a great attacking racket but not so great for defense. However, the main problem is the relatively weak shaft. I broke 4 of them at the shaft; otherwise, it would still be my go-to racket.
