    Important is try all racket yourself because every person has different taste.

    I totally agree. You shouldnt choose a racquet purely because 'its your style'; true some racquets are more suited/give you for power and control, but u should get wat u feel comfortable with. In the end, u should be controlling how u play with a racquet, not the other way around. :D

    AT700 3U does pack alot of power and may be much easier to control that AT900-P.

    It's really a personal choice. If your gut tells you AT700, go with that.
    It IS a powerful racket which is 'quicker' than people give it credit for...;)
    I 'sessioned' one last week and it felt sooo goood...:D

    All in all, those are my personal opinion of the rackets.

    At the end of the day, the owner is the one using it ;).

    hey, just another question i had. I just used the AT 500 again today and judging just by clears the AT 500 seems pretty powerful but for some reason when i smash there was no power at all.

    nothing personal, but I think you should check your technique.

    i agree, its probabaly your technique. One way to learn is just watch instructional videos + internatinal tournaments. Thus, you will try them on court and build it up there..weird theory but worked for me XD

    Hey i just had a question if you guys were to judge which racquet is "easier" to use the AT 700 vs the AT 900 Power which one would you say? ( you know how some people say some racquest are for advance to pros etc etc)

    It's been nearly a month...

    Hi AznDude,

    I notice that you started this thread in the beginning of the month...:eek:
    -thread started-


    It is commendable that you've taken the pain to thoroughly and meticulously do research for the purchase of your next racket.:)

    However, I do hope that you have a spare/back-up racket of sorts which you've been playing with in these weeks...:rolleyes:

    Dude, it's coming to year's end... I hope you haven't been mulling over, "What should I buy next..." at the expense of playing/training...;)

    When you started this thread, an AT was the last thing on my mind. I'm not your typical 'smash-based attacker'. As the weeks passed, I got curious enough to actually session a few (had to figure out why you had so much difficulty making up your mind) and actually develop a deep liking for the AT700. In some ways, it is very different than what many make it out to be (but it IS powerful...).:cool:

    I have since gotten it for myself and now play AT700.:D

    Go out there, try all the rackets you can get your hands on, and pick the one that you like the most (even if the tie-breaker is the 'colour')...:D:D

    I hope you 'find'/decide on your next racket soon...:D:D:D

    AT700 very easy to adapt to. Personally find it very 'playable', even though I came from head-light & even-balanced frames ('aero' x-section heads)...

    haha thanks, im just looking into it and the reason why it took so long is because im getting it for christmas so i was looking into racquets a few weeks earlier.. ya basically my first racquet was MP 99 because a few years ago i read that it does nothing bad its balanced etc etc so i thought i would get an racquet that is "easier" to adjust to. So i guess im leaning towards the AT 700 since its easier to use then the 900
