    metal from frame, court surface made from cement with glossy finishing, thank God the frame didn't break.
    i still couldn't understand why the sparkle fire happened.
    the frame got big and long scratch, it's very very bad...

    no..no... it's almost impossible to have flaming shuttle, the sparkle was minor, and the shuttle bounce off from the string bed, not from the top frame.

    SaraLee Thoungthongkam uses NS9000 type X

    Nope..there's this Thai female mixed doubles player, SaraleeThoungthongkam (THA). I believe she and her partner Sudket Prapakamol (Gosen/Victor user?) are top 10 in the world.

    Just bought and played with ns9000s 3u sp.

    Now this is what is called headlight. Been playing regularly with new ti10. New ti10 is NOT headlight as printed on the shaft. I checked the balance point and it is quite close to at700.

    Doesn't have too much problem adjusting from ti10 but have a few mishits especially during smashing.

    Really liked the racquet. Not stiff compared to ti10. I could actually feel the bouncy feeling of the elastic ti unlike at900p and at900t where the bouncy feeling is just isn't there. Just like ants reviewed, I could get lots of power from it with less effort.

    Very good paint job : no marks due to mishits on the frame.

    The ns9000s will now accompany the ti10's as my main arsenal because I play all doubles. Anyone in the north wants to buy an at700 3u sp for rm300? I might want to sell it if you are nearby.

    Hah hah...yah...type X demands you to get behind early to the shuttle every time to do a full jump smash or a full baseline clear. When hit very hard...the sound of the smash is fantastic.

    Yes I agree. type S is better for drives using less swing but less power.

    Type X is more for ppl who are stronger and bigger....since they got more power and mass to swing all out. Type S is for weaker and smallish players hence more female pros uses it.

    nano 9000 is pretty good if you want power but you can injure your wrists if you're not playing correctly. people tend to want to buy it because of its looks or because they think that it'd be a really good racket to use and show off (no offense to anyone), which is a really bad idea for someone who just started playing. be careful though, it can break. if that happens, supposedly you're shouldn't cut off the string (the stringing has to be the official one for the nano) and take it to where you bought it and you can get it replaced. i think that the nano is supposed to have a lifetime warranty, but i'm not entirely sure if this can work. some stores might be stingy about it, so....

    You might want to post the offer portion in the Buy & Sell forum ;)

    By the way, north = ? :confused:
    If not in Malaysia, I might have a look at it.

    It is/was. Its a pity the stopped production, but with the NS9900, i can see why.
    They do need a NS9000S replacement though. I wish yonex would release one soon.

    NS9000S & NS9000X's paintjob is actually cool (though many are disgusted with its colour scheme). It distances itself from the regular RED . The overall look is enhanced by the racing stripes which really makes it the fastest nanoSPEED! Wielding it is like driving a real fast car.
