hey guys; I have tried the ns9900, 9000, and the 8000 along with the zslash. I personally don't think the zslash gives more power than the ns8000. The ns8000 is the more consistence all around racket. But that's me. I can smash pretty well; and the zslash isn't the ultimate smashing racket. Go play all the ns8000 again and get use to it. It will indeed be your new favoriet.
Well everybody has their own opinion on what racket is best suited for their game play I play with an Arcsaber Z-Slash TH and I love playing with it because I like to smash alot as we as having a fast game
