    I forgot to ask (yes I still haven't gone out and bought the racket yet), which one would be better for doubles? For XD I do reverse so I'm at the net and for MD I play at the net. Just between the Arcsaber 10 and Armortec 900 Technique since I'm getting one of them.

    Sounds good, except for the part where it impresses people (my play will make them look away in disgust ;)).

    Definitely, I'll even kiss the racket and get married to it after we get a triple crown (meaning never).

    Gotta give a clap at that one. hahaha~:D
    To me, AT900(P or T) and Arc 10 are just plain too expensive. I will have to work hard to purchase anyone of them.

    But in the end if the racket has good technology, materials, reviews, and feels good in your hand why not save enough money to get it?

    What uplift to mid court? By the way in case you haven't noticed I already am a dead fish, the dead fish if you will.

    Pearl white BG66 strings, or the gold NBG 95 or NBG98 will ne nice & neutral, white grap.

    Started with NBG98 very very nice string. Then it frayed and I replaced it with BG66. I do not like BG66 but the pearl white strings match the shaft color perfectly. I cut it off and replaced it with NBG95 and it will be my regular string until NBG98 reappears.

    I'd say let the racket's nice color combo speak for itself without adding other colors to distract, my 2-cents.

    So I finally ran out and got an Armortec 900 Technique 4U/G5 strung at 26 lbs. with BG 80. I decided to put black super grap over it rather then yellow super grap so it's all good. Thanks for the help on this subject.

    I'll get a photo up later and the strings are white. My dad also spent like $4000 on a camera and lenses and bags so I think I'll get him to take the picture. He seems pretty excited about using his camera too, keeps telling me to find mine so we can go down to the river valley and look for beavers. Do beavers attack people?

    Arc 10 has no fullerene, no elastic ti, no titanium, so it doesn't even have the parts of NS or AT series.

    This could be bad for me... What will happen if they attack???? Do they move quickly on land? Maybe I'll ask my coach to come with us and guard us from possible beaver attacks.

    Also if you go to the Yonex site and look at the AT 900's then you'll see that they are actually the only rackets where the Power Armour System (the AT's "unique" technology belonging to no other racket series) and Nanoscience technology (the Nanospeed was the only racket series with this technology before the Armortec 900's came out) which should indicate to you that this racket is the NS and AT technology combined. Also the ArcSaber 10 doesn't have Nanoscience or the Power Armour System.
