    Hi ,

    So basically looking for a racket suggestion for a heavy racket ideally weighing around 90g or more . I am mostly a singles player (I would say high intermediate / low advanced ) but also play backcourt / baseline in doubles when I play doubles .
    I would want something heavy and preferable also head heavy for smashes to be effective from back court and easier lifts and clears !

    Also i have slightly unstable wrist which overrotates so having something heavy in hand stabilizes it and funny enough sometimes playing with old heavy basic aluminium / compound etc rackets i feel more in control .

    My current rackets are AVP , ashaway xfire
    ( Both around 88g ) And old Yonex 7000I 2u .

    Any suggestions would be welcome . We do play with mostly plastics as of now but i do have strong enough wrists as squash is also a regular for me.

    Thank you !

    2U weight class is out of my realm lol. My only suggestions are

    Yonex Astrox 99 Pro 3U
    Victor Ryuga 3U
    Victor TK-F Claw 3U (The white one)
    Lining Axforce 90 Dragon 3U
    Lining Turbocharging 75EX

    These are, in my opinion, one of the good "heavy" rackets to try. 2U rackets are impossible to find in Thailand so I didn't have a chance to paly with any and I don't think I can play with it either cuz it's too heavy for me.


    Careful with wrist injuries playing with too heavy racket tho.

    ZF2 3U is not vastly different to the 2U racquets I used before.

    Howabout an Astrox 99 old colorway. Thats pretty beefy as well, but not as stiff as ZF2
