Sorry to hear about your problems. What ...Hi Awang<br /><br />Sorry to hear about your problems. What i do know is that in the UK where i am from, the edge sabre z spark can be strung up to 30lbs, and this information is direct from the apacs sports web site in the UK. As far as in malaysia, i am not so sure, but i would guess that it can be strung to very similar levels. However, if your racket is a fake, then that is a serious problem. There have not been any reports of fake apacs rackets yet in the UK. My advice would be to head over to badminton central, where there is an apacs fan club thread. Post your racket details on there, and someone may be able to determine if it is a fake. Did you buy it from a reputable shop or store? If so you can always take it back and ask them, or find another z spark and have a hit with it, you should then be able to notice if there is a difference if one is a fake.antonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10586289492719886365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5959754654891727597.post-82816920523941151582010-12-13T08:28:31.259+00:002010-12-13T08:28:31.259+00:00i already use edge saber z spark...i strung my rac...i already use edge saber z spark...i strung my racket at 25 lbs...n now..my string are broken...and wen i want to string it at tension 26 lbs..the stringer not confident to string it...he said that the maximum tension for that racket only 25lbs..and he also said that my racket is fake one.. i bought my racket for rm 280..so is that true or not???? pliz give me a favor...tq...ais kacanghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02707020540714370966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5959754654891727597.post-35752917767232399362010-10-24T22:36:23.147+01:002010-10-24T22:36:23.147+01:00Thanks ! i really wonna buy this racquet but then...Thanks ! i really wonna buy this racquet but then i read your review on Tantrum 300 and you made it sound even better !<br />I currently have a Yonex armortec 150 and i think it is crazy heavy.

The problem i have is that being from the UK, the only apacs rackets i get hold of are from apacs UK. With apacs being a malaysian brand there are loads of different rackets available in the far east that neither i nor apacs UK can get hold of.

These 2 rackets are not that stiff because I do not have powerful swings. <br /><br />But what I am concerned is that lethal 6 is 5U 82g+-, would that be too light for semi offensive single play? the nano 900 power red is said to be head heavy with 4U which i think suit me. Otherwise the two rackets would be quite the same. I also noticed that the balance points are the same for lethal 6, nano 900 power red and white and some other models. I saw from review that higher BP means heavier head. If it is true, why the nano 900 power red which is claimed to be more head heavy has the same BP as others?<br />thanks a lot :)jj nghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08678600933200314579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5959754654891727597.post-45176863873529749812010-04-30T16:19:47.938+01:002010-04-30T16:19:47.938+01:00Hi jj

I want to buy a new racket and would like to learn from you. I am currently using an old Yonex carbonex 21 SP which was my father. It has been in extremely good condition, and a good racket. but i find it difficult to smash compared to some other rackets. the string tension is 25 lbs. Do i need a lighter racket? Does higher tension mean more power? I hope to get more control to play better up front the court and have stronger smashes and shots. I am not an advanced player so should i avoid stiff rackets? <br /><br />by the way may i know what does the balance in "285 +/- 3mm" means? what balance would suit me? i am currently looking into apacs racket as i saw a lot of positive review online. thanks.jj nghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08678600933200314579noreply@blogger.com
