    How do the D-900, Woven-9, and YY 9000 S compare? Stiffness, power, control, and physical-demanding wise? xD

    I'm the wrong person to ask as I think none of these rackets are demanding. :p

    But if I were to rate them:

    Least demanding:
    1) D-900
    2) Woven 9
    3) 9000-S

    Power and control are all relative to the person. I'd say they are all quite powerful and all have good control, they are all comparable.

    Stiffness: Woven 9 and S are comparable. D-900 definitely more flexy.

    i think i'll stick with the Woven 9, since the others seem really expensive... How much is the D-900, anyway? the official website says its 150 euros... isn't that around $300??

    Lol, well next time you see him, tell him to update his website. One day sales generally only last one day and not one year :D

    Thanks for the compliment Midknightblue, but that's not the official-sotx-site. it's the site of one of their agents in holland;)

    and Dummey:eek:, thnaks for the compliment as well...But hold on to that thought untill we actually have pictures on the site:p
    My dad's too busy at the moment to do some photo-chopping

    As for the dealer in California, I'm the distributor for Canada and I operate for him. Delays indeed... it's getting rather frustrating.

    Its a very good racket particularly defensively.... even - slight head heavy balance...extremely stable racket (woven series always seems to be better)... can feel your shots pretty well and moves pretty fast....very responsive for netshots. Smashes is good..but defintely wun beat those head-heavy rackets. However.. its 670mm.. so slightly shorter than those common "long" rackets at 675mm nowadays.. so might need some minute adjustments. ;)
