    So 800 is head heavier and same stiffness even tho the 9900 is rated extra stiff and lighter head? stiff = extra stiff?

    With digital 27 lbs aerobiteboost nf800 3U, almost same compare to 3U zsp and dzs but 3U zf and zf2 is more tiring,

    For me who use ax88D 4UG5 before nf800 3u is more tiring.
    Although I fine with nf800 3U weight but combine with the stiffness, feel hard for me who play advanced double. For men playing single 3U for sure, women single 4U is enough

    For Smash power if u get timing and sweet spot nf800 4UG5 not better compare to ax88D 4U but it feel quite good and just enough for me because nf800 is speed racket,
    Much faster than ax88D and power is there.

    I’m currently using a DZS 3ug5 27lbs um string, i find the spec of nf800 is quite similar to DZS( frame size, stiffness and weight). Anyone can give an input on this when both are at same string tension and both 3u ? Which racket will be easier to handle and have stronger smash?

    In the case of NF800, it feels pretty stiff.

    I'd say NF800 is like in between ZSP and DZS in terms of head heaviness but still just as stiff. Whether which one is easier to handle that depends on you really.

    Which requires more expertise to wield? Stiff HH or stiff HL racket?

    Neither. It depends on if you're used to a HL with faster swing or HH with slower swing.

    I own 2 of this racket
    Almost same balance point and same weight, also same stiffness
    This 2 is fast racket with power, tkfc 4U much easy to use for all level player,bigspot and feel more high quality material.
    For me, If you have better technique and ok with small head frame than prefer more speed and fast front player go to nf8004U.
    Tkfc is allrounder racket really balance for all player style. Just solid and very good racket.
    2 of this just good for double player
    For men single player i prefer nf800 3U, dzs, ax88D or ax99.

    I own N9II and certainly N9II has more power than 800 but lack of speed that 800 has.

    N9ii just only 3U, this racket is head heavy racket like zf2 but n9ii shaft is medium stiff, zf2 much stiffer.
    Falcon is stiffer than n9ii, but falcon have 4U option.

    Head heavy racket
    zf2 extra stiff
    falcon stiff
    Ax88D and ax99 stiff
    n9ii medium stiff

    Slightly head heavy racket
    Nf800 stiff+
    Falcon claw stiff+
    This 2 is much faster racket

    With same stiff shaft, slightly head heavy racket feel more stiffer than head heavy racket. Because heavy head weight make shaft feel more flex.

    Personally I think the NF800 beats the N9II/TC75 (I used to own one just to clarify) on raw power still. Simple reasons, stiffer shaft, smaller head with concentrated sweetspot, and the head balance isn't actually that far off. All in all those 3 points and my own experience so far concludes for me that the NF800 is the superior racket is every way but use friendliness.

    I agree with you. NF800 is better than N9II.
    However, I'm not really like NF800 because of the head weight. For me isnt heavy enough. I sold mine yesterday and now, thinking to buy ALTIUS01FEEL :D

    Haha Ok. I never thought I can tame a racket like VT80E while many says really heavy.
    It is heavy but I find it acceptable to play and feel so much joy.

    I'm glad many of you like NF800, this racket have a potential and friendly to use but for some who doesnt like small frame, they might be bothered.

    Yes. You are right.
    I personally think that nf800 was perfect racket for me. I have v zforceii LCW 3u and I never able to play with it without injuring my shoulder.
    Maybe I don't have enough strength to cope with this heavy racket. That's why I found nf800 3u was perfect fo me.
