Hi all,

I need to look for a new racket for my son (broke my old MP33 recently Yell). My supplier has an Arcsaber Omega to offer for a very nice price. But I've been googling like mad, and cannot find any characteristics of it. Anybody out there that can provide details ? I know it is an outlet racket !

Many thanks in advance !

Cheers, ED

This is a stiff frame that was sold as a 3U G4 for around £100 when it launched.

 

I'm not sure whether it was a limited edition but the name suggests it was. Bearing in mind Arcsaber racquets haven't been around that long I would expect it had a limited run or wasn't popular. I have seen it sold around £60 mark.

 

MP33 was either flexible or medium flex racquet from memory so potentially there is a slight incompatibility between the two racquets.

 

Hope this helps you make a decision.

 

Paul

Correct you are Paul, MP was medium flex. But the most important thing is it was a racket from the same kwadrant from the Yonex graph (I know you don't like them graphs, but they do give a slight indication). He doesn't like head heavy nor head light rackets too much, and the ArcSaber range was the only option. But if I saw the prices of the Arcs' that would be some kind of a match, and the number of rackets he smashed to smithereens already… I got it for 70€ strung with BG65TI (came from 100€). This omega is even balance. He did well, lost his single, but won his double.

Thanks for the swift response !

Cheers, ED

Glad your son is happy. Sounds like you got a pretty good price.

 

Congratulations to your son, doing so well with a new racquet too!

 

Glad to help as always
