That is classic fake news and not correct. And I think what @Sumanth99 wanted to say was that the decals on both N80II/Calibar800 and that Razor95 are pretty much identical with only the base color being different. The resemblance is only optical.
Haven't even swung Calibar 900C But I do have swung an N90 III Balance wise, and weight wise, it's a yes tho
Hello guys... Which Li Ning racket would you recommend for me? I've been playing Badminton for 2 years (doubles). Currently using Astrox 88D (4U). I do enjoy it, buy sometimes feel that the racket are way to stiff. I do like fast and light rackets but still want to be able to generate power. I've also been looking at the new Astrox 88D Pro, which I heard is more flexible than the regular 88D
I'd suggest you N9 II (Turbo charging 75 now) or N80 II (3D Caliber 800), these are classics (specifically former) I am sure @s_mair and other experienced forumers would also agree, keep in mind these are not as head heavy or stiff as 88D but great rackets overall.
After a lot of ponder on should I wait or not, I placed an order for TC80 yesterday, given the circumstances shipment may get delayed. I will have 3 quality rackets hopefully, N80II, 100zz, TC80, I want to relish them for the next 1 or 1.5 years. Hopefully by then Li Ning will have new series's of AXFORCE, HALBERTEC and Bladex mature and will give us some now interesting rackets to try. Will try to write a review of TC80 and comparison with N80II, 100zz. Can be delay due to the tough times. Can't wait to try TC frame.
Thank you for the input. I've tried my friends N9II and it didn't felt as good as the 88D, but it was 6 months ago. I'll have a look at 3D Caliber 800. How do you think 3D Caliber 900i will be in terms of power generation compared to 88D? I've also looked at the aeronaut 9000c, feels like a racket between 3D Caliber 900i and 88D. But I can be completly wrong
Can you mention the specific area where N9II didn't felt as good as N9II, you don't like the feel of aero frame? If you are okay with the feel of aero frame then, is the issue with lesser stiffness or balance ?
I'm not really sure, but I will maybe try it again. If I remember correctly, I felt that the speed wasn't there.
This is very surprising, TC frames are known to be faster. Then I know someone who felt similar @BalajiSethuraman, he tried 3D Caliber 900i and liked it. You can talk to him.
Also if you are not regular player and new to sport then may be try again to see if you feel the same, cause when one is at the very early stages of developing skills/technique then one may not feel/realize all the subtle aspects of rackets. If you can try to give it a bit time. When some racket is universally liked then you will eventually end up liking it may be give it time since you are coming form Yonex family.
3D 900i will come no where close to the power u r looking for(88D) That being said, it is a light, fast and can deliver decent smash for a racquet of its weight category. Shaft is flexible, you may find it really comfortable to play with. Even n7ii Lite for that matter was great racquet, I am not sure of its name in Turbocharging series. I found it really comfortable to play with. Sent from my SM-N975F using Tapatalk
I see, but I don't think I'm even close to push the 88D to the limits. If 3D 900i can help be generate some power with it's flex shaft, I think i may even generate more power with 3D 900i or is it not possible?
I cannot say to what extent u r able to utilize the power from 88D , but since you are not comfortable playing with the stiffness, Li Nings won't disappoint. They are comparatively more flexible and easy to play and comes with excellent paint job. Sent from my SM-N975F using Tapatalk
Tried my 88D again today. I think i'm having problem to generate good power in my storkes because of the stiff shaft. 3D Calibar 900 Instinct may be too light? I think I want a fast 4U/W2 racket with a more flex than my 88D
I think Tectonic 7 will suit me after checking some reviews and the specifications Do you have the racket?
TC80 arrived today, ordered from LiNing super store, the official Li Ning India store. Racket is gorgeous, feels flexible since I got used to 100zz. I am disappointed with the service of LN super store, I asked for 27lbs but string feels like 24/23 that much tension drop is unexpected. Small paint chip which I believe is during stringing? any ideas if this can happen? I also added grip to my cart, but they took liberty in doing a crappy job of wripping it around plastic factory wrap .
