    • Badminton idiot

      Badminton idiot (Experience:11-20 years) Not bad

      I've used 3U even-balance rackets from junior high through my current first year of university, and from Wilson I used the VERTEX BLX, VERTEX BLX2 and VERTEX BLX POWER SKIN for about six years.
      The specs were similar, so I bought the RECON PX9900J SPIDER, but my impression is that the head doesn't do much. Even at 3U it doesn't feel very weighty, so something is missing. Maneuverability has its good points, but across shots overall, I get little sense of crushing the shuttle.
      I think it'll be fine once you get used to it; as a racket, it's excellent.

    • Crafty High Schooler

      Crafty High Schooler (Experience:4-5 years) All-rounder. A jack of all trades.

      So far I've used these rackets:
      NANORAY 250 (4U, head-light)
      ↓
      VOLTRIC FB (6U, head-heavy)
      ↓
      RESMO C5 (4U, even balance; a racket from a company called Composite Techno)

      and the RECON was by far the easiest to handle among them.

      Being 3U with an even balance, it seems great at hitting every shot consistently, from net play to overhead clears and smashes.
      Especially with smashes, you can get both control and speed at once, which feels really good.
      I think it's a well-made racket!

      Of course for singles, but I think it could also do well in the rear court in doubles? (In the front court, it might lose out to head-light rackets for drives and pushes...)
      It's so easy to use that if I had money to spare, I'd want to get about 3 of them!
