After a long hiatus, I came back to write this blog again.

I have written about how to choose a badminton racket earlier in this blog. Now, I’m at that juncture myself because my Muscle Power 100 is broken, and I need to find a replacement. I could pull the last MP 100 out of my inventory, and don’t have to face this question, but getting a chance to try the new racket is really hard to resist. So here I am, blogging about it.

I have 2 options to go to, head-light, or head-heavy. Currently, I’m using Nanospeed 7000 as a substitute for my Muscle Power 100. I was using Armortec 800 Offensive before that, and found it to be cumbersome at the net. On the other hand, it gives me smashing power and accuracy from the back of the court. When Nanospeed 7000 was released, I pulled one from my inventory to try it out and really hook on it. I can intercept bird with very little time to react. I can change direction at the last second. It’s a very fast racket, and I like it. I know that head-light racket with suite me well. However, over times, I find Nanospeed 7000 lack in smashing power (comparing to Armortec 800 Offensive). So here I am trying to figure out if I should give Armortec a try again, or go with what my instinct is telling me that head-light is the best bet for me.

I did some searches on Google to find review for Armortec 900 series. I came across “ants” at BadmintonCentral.com. I found that he is a friend of either Koo Kien Keat or Tan Boon Heong (or both). Members on BadmintonCentral seems to give him respect and his opinions are sought after, so I think I can assume that he is an advanced player, and his review are reliable.
