Dear friends, i am posting this thread so i can get some other opinions about these 2 raquets. I have been playing with the n Blade for 2 years and now with thw kBlade for about 2 months. I don't know about you but i feel they are two completely different sticks. Don't get me wrong i was (am) very satisfied with the nblade and the only reason i went and bought the new one was the increased stiffness which i believed would make my balls go a bit deeper and heavier (ohh, the black paint job was a reason too...).
Balls do go a bit deeper, however my arm is about to fall out after an hour of play, my wrist hurts like crazy when i go home and overall the stick feels like its 5oz heavier. So is it me or the K factor technology???
Also, it is very hard for me to find short angles, my volleys go all over the place, my down-the-line slice backhand approach goes out...(but i do keep winninng the games i am supposed too...).
I know it sounds like the kBlade is not a stick for me...but isn't supposed to be the next generation racquet?? If i break or lose the nBlade to i have to start all over again searching for THE ONE?
Does anybody else with nBlade experiance feel the same way, or is it just me.
I will be very glad to hear what you have to say. Thank you.
