Another great example of players personal choice.

Yes, AT900T is a lovely racquet. Sadly, you may find that it will only be available this season as Yonex will be discontinuing the range very soon.

As Lee Chong Wei has moved over to Voltric, I suspect Armortec range will cease production sooner rather than later.

Some known disclaimers:
As Paul has repeatedly mentioned, each racquet appeals to each person differently.
So this is my view of the racquet, it could be a stark contrast or maybe not.

At this point in time, I compelled to pen my thoughts into words.
My journey on finding the perfect racquet for me started from
1) Yonex Carbonex SP 21
2) Decatholon Artengo 900 P
3) Decatholon Artengo 960 P
4) Ashway Arcblade 7
5) Yonex Arcsaber 7
6) Voltric 80
7) My joy of joys, MY love and MY perfect racquet “Armortec 900 Technique”

As much as I wanted to like and adopt V80 as my racquet of choice, it just never clicked for me.
I gave a week’s time but things really did nt improve towards my liking.

I decided to follow my heart and got the Armortec 900 Technique.
I could immediately connect with the racquet and I know that this is the ONE for me.

1) The clears were good
2) Net play was spot on
3) Smashes were not bad well. Once the plot was set the finish with a smash was very easy.
4) Backhand was perfect, I felt the blessing of Taufik

This is an amazing racquet with exceptional control and speed.
It excels in defensive & offensive play
I like the fact that there is a sligh feel of the head but
the racquet moves with some of speed that you start enjoying picking up smashes.
With a good swing action, it generates good amout of power as well.

Dare it say it!! This is my holy grail.
I just hope Yonex never discontinue this or they need to ensure they come up with a worthy successor.
I am even tempted to stock a couple of AT900T s

Many thanks for your enquiry.

At the moment it’s not clear regards the future of AT900T. Personally I think the current success of Voltric will result in the demise of Armortec range in 2011. I’m not sure what will replace AT900T at the moment, we’ll all have to wait and see.

I love the AT900T in my opinion it suits my game very well.
Could you some more pointers towards the future of AT900T

Is this raquet here to stay? (I see that you have mentioned that they will have short shelf life)
Will there be a replacement for AT900T?

For someone in love with AT900T could you suggest an alternative.
