    I have to wonder if Apacs made it as a clone of the Zelm racket, or the other way around? Not sure which came first. never tried it myself.

    The Nano 9990 seems to be a clone of the Yonex NS9900 from the looks of the paint job.

    willy is right, the nano9900 is the clone for the yy NS9900. The 9990 is different but not sure if it's an original apacs or a clone of something else?

    It should be their own racket because if it was a clone, it'll look like the original racket.

    Review of Tantrum-300

    So after 8 hours with my new Tantrum 300 double and single, I must say I'm impress with the quality of the racket, I don't think I will be a better player with a new racket but feeling will be better.

    Like said earlier, racket is string with BG-80 23x25, an Apacs PU grip was added over the original grip.

    First, racket feel balance, clear, drop, smash, smash return, net play, everything is fluid and can be done with ease, even back hand is easier with this racket than my Arc Saber10. Power was good, not terrific since I don't want to hurt more my shoulder, I take care and not overuse the smash.
    One of the thing that I really like, it when you just give a good and fast wrist shot, you can generate a lot of power, a lot more than ARC10.

    It's a excellent all-around and I think this is a upgrade for me.
    Apacs offer high end racket at a very nice price.
    Apacs Canada, give good service and short delivery.

    Sorry buddy, I've been busy and the place I play has been closed until the new year. Only have a few hours on each racket and don't want to give a full review on such little data.

    Overall I like the tantrum the best though. Best combination of speed, power and touch.

    Nano9990


    I just get Nano9990 and play with it last night.

    It is very easy to play with and slightly similar to tantrum200 in term of swing speed.
    It is slightly head heavy, mid-weight, moderate stiffness, very repulsive with birdie contact, the smashing is very precise but not "boom boom" kind of smash. It is definitely good for double game but it can be used for single as well.
    So far I have played with AMP90, Lethat60, Furious608, VH1500, VH1700, Tantrum200, Tantrum130, Nano900(P/S), ES10,ES9,ES7 and Nano9990. I would say the Nano9990 is very much on par with the Tantrum series.

    Power: 8.5/10
    Control: 9.0/10 (Very accurate in term of placement)
    Stiffness: Moderate
    BP: Slightly Head heavy (before put on the over-grip)
    Tension: 25 x 27 with BG65


    Hope it help .....Cheers :):):):):):):)

    BTW, can someone review the Z-Spark

    ES series

    For some reason, I do not have any "connected" feeling while playing with ES series from APACS. (even the real Arc series from YY). Someone in here point out the the ES series is very unforgiving and you must hit the sweet pot cleanly to generate power and control.
    I do have a lot of good experiences with Nano, VH, and Tantrum series rackets. If you looking for a good, and "forgiving" racket to place with I suggest you to look into those series. BTW, Furious series is also very easy to place.

    the ES are clones, they are actually NOT BAD, i had the ES 10 and 9, it does get some times to get used to them, but they're very playable IMO. better than some of the yonex I've played with.

    The nano 900 power is actually not a bad racket. Not as good as the AT900P but still a good racket for the price. Too bad you weren't looking a few weeks ago, they had a buy 1 get 1 free sale.

    Apacs sale right now, Lethal Light Special and Nano 9900 for $99.
