    Im going to buy a new racket, probably carlton powerblade superlight or rasmussen superlight. But i dont know yet which one im gonna buy:rolleyes: ....So i'd like to know your opinion of these rackets, which one is better. I am also thinking carlton megaflex f1 ti, but i guess its not so good. And the last thing, do you think that the carlton powerblade tour are better than superlight. Thank you from all information....(ps. my english is quite bad:( ...)

    The new Carlton range is probably too new for many of us to know much about them. We can't really say if one is better than the other.
    We might be able to tell you how they are different, so you can decide yourself which is more suitable for you.

    If www.centralsports.co.uk is to be believed
    The Powerblades are about 2g heavier than the same Rasmussen
    e.g. Rasmussen Superlite is 84g, Powerblade Superlite is 86g
    The Powerblade Tour is 92g and even balance
    The Powerblade Superlite is 86g and head-light (or superlight as they say)

    I have no other information about them.
    The Carlton website is still down. Olympic Silver medallists use Carlton, but they can't be bothered to get their website back up.

    I don't know, but I would guess that the Rasmussens are stiffer than the Powerblades.

    Why not try to get the previous version Airblade Superlite from eBay.
    comido_de are starting several of them at 1 Euro.

    Hello,

    There are some threads and even reviews about carlton powerblades and rasmussen :D
    do a quick search and you will find good information.

    I have carlton powerblade superlite and tour.
    the powerblade tour version is not suitable for me, and all of my colleques also don't like the tour after they tested it, because it's not powerful, very headlight !!

    but the superlight is great for me !!! it's my number 1 racket now :D .

    Hope i could help ...

    Thank you both!!:D Well I guess carlton powerblade superlight would be more suitable for me than rasmussen superlight or powerblade tour. But based on what i have read, carlton megaflex f1 ti is same kind of racket as powerblade superlight:rolleyes:(not sure...) , and its cheaper than powerblade superlight. So i wonder if there is as much difference in these rackets as in their prizes..:confused: :confused:

    Need Some Help Please

    :D Hi all!:D
    Have anyone used Carlton Airblade Superlight or Carlton Airblade As Ti???
    I'd like to know which one do you prefer or what do you think about these rackets, and whats the main difference between these two rackets. I could get Carlton Airblade Superlight with 13 euros and Carlton Airblade As Ti with 25 euros, but Airblade As Ti is used. Which one should i buy?? I cant decide. I really need some help:eek: Is there so much difference in these rackets that I should buy used As Ti with 25 euros rather than new Superlight with 13 euros??

    Or maybe I should get megaflex 4 with 16 euros:)?? Thats different kind of racket. I dont know is it any good. Im looking for a quite light, not head heavy racket for singles. Which of these 3 rackets can generate most power? Which of these rackets has best control? So many questions:eek: Hope u can help me!

    Sorry my bad english:)

    I guess it's merged by 1 of the moderators, as the contains are similar in "light carlton rackets".
