Yonex - Spin racquets?

[BLAST]

How come Yonex does not produce more 18x20 racquets? The only one I can think of is the RDX 500 HD. I hit with the RDS 002 Tour for a brief hitting session, it was a beautiful racquet and I really wanted to like it but it was just too spin friendly. I mostly liked to hit flats balls from the baseline and with the RDS my shots had too much handtime on it due to the extra spin. How come Yonex don't produce more 18x20 frame? And what would be a good yonex racquet that is not too spin-friendly in the 95-100 headsize range?

Yonex Ultimum RD Ti-80 it's not 18 x 20 but its stiffness can help you in the term of flat hitting style.

Yep, Yonex equals spin. They don't care much about flat hitters. You need to get yourself a Dunlop or something

I hit w/an RDX 500 Mid for a few years, and it was great for my relatively flat hitting style. Spin was easy to generate when I wanted it, but I had no troubles flattening things out w/it...

So generally, is stiffer racquets better for flatter shots?

i have no problem hitting flat w/ yonex rackets....tried rdx500 mid/mp, rds001 mid, ti80, rds003, mp tour 1 mp, and none of them had issues hitting flat...

I have had no problems hitting a flat ball with any of the Yonex racquets I've tried (and I've tried probably 70% of them).
