Wow good for you!! I terribly envy your titanium because I only have a Nanospeed 6000. You must be pretty excited to use it for smashing shuttles. Congratulations for a new racket

Nanospeed 6000 is quite good. It is more a professional racket. It is the one I want eagerly, and more expensive one. Maybe I will get one when I have some improvment in my skill later. :D

Got no reason to envy for...Nanospeed 6000 conventional raquet for all novice players.. It dosent matter what's your raquet is using, the important key is how you play the game..court performance is prefered rather than raquet performance. Though raquet is a factor but it plays minimal percentage to your performance. My advice is make "PERFECT PRACTICE" to make perfect game. Keep on smashing!

Yes, you are right, skill is the most important in the game. BTW, smashing is not the only way to play, although I like it. :)

Well i prefer YoNex old badminton rackets better , no matter what rackets you use ,most importantly is that you are comfortable with it . i do know that light rackets have their weaknest in slow tapping balls

i remember my excitement when I first had my Gooseflites badminton racket. . . i'm not really particular about specs but what i knew then was that that racket was much lighter than the Wilson I was using being new to the sport. . . though until now I'm still not particular about specs, I know that I get along really well with my RSL Millenium Attack. . . my nth racket in this game i've been playing going on 7 years now. . congratulations on your new racket. . .
