    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    Highly rated as having equivalent performance to Viscaria and Timobor ALC with superior design and cost performance. The balance of high speed and spin characteristic of the outer ALC material receives overwhelming support from attacking players with solid fundamentals.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Same performance as Viscaria at lower price
    • High speed and stability of outer ALC
    • Excellent backhand drive power
    • Requires practice and skill for beginners
    • Excellent compatibility with hard rubbers like Dignics
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveIt has a ball-gripping shock absorption sensation and provides good spin despite strong elasticity. It makes powerful and speedy play easy from the front court, allowing you to hit backhand shots like Lin Gaoyuan.
    ▽ CriticalThe hard blade makes it difficult to land drives with hard rubbers like Dignics 80, requiring careful rubber selection. It requires adjustment for first-time carbon users and is not recommended for beginners.

      Player reviews

      It's basically the same as the Viscaria
      The differences are
      - 1g heavier
      - The design looks cooler
      - It's cheaper
      That's about it

      For forehand and backhand drives, just a light brush puts spin on the ball, and if you get a clean impact you can get quite a lot of speed too.
      On top of that, even in the short game, chiquitas and flicks come out with real power, and you can hit fast shots even against reverse-motion serves
      Also, in topspin rallies, opponents often say the ball has amazing carry, so it's a great racket for rallies too

      Shae (Experience: 2〜3 years) Moderate bounce plus confidence-inspiring stability!

      Player reviews

      I'll go through it by technique
      Basic hitting - even though it's an outer racket, it holds the ball well, so you can keep a rally going stably
      Drive - it generates a lot of speed, and since it grips the ball for a moment before releasing it, you get plenty of spin too
      Counter - it draws a nice arc, so you can hit more stably than you'd expect
      Push - the ball tends to come out a little high, so if you build up some timing before hitting, you can get a low, sharp push
      Flick - as I mentioned, it grips the ball, so you can really lift it well
      Chiquita - it gets spin on it, but it tends to fly fairly straight, so it's easier to land if you hit it at the top of the ball's arc
      Topspin rallies - it generates speed, so you can hit without losing power

      Out of every racket I've used so far, I felt like this one strikes the best balance between power and stability. I want to keep using it for a long time!

      The short game is excellent too, and the stability on flicks is amazing! You can still hit solid drives from mid-distance, and I think this racket really doesn't have many downsides!

      I used it with a rubber similar to what Lin Gaoyuan uses. It's really easy to use, and since it's an outer ALC, the way it flies felt basically like a Viscaria with a different grip. It looks great and works well both for players aiming for that super-fast style of attacking off receives, like Lin's over-the-table backhand drives and chiquitas, and for beginners too.

      I love tools (Experience: 4〜5 years) Way too amazing

      Player reviews

      The feel and the sound when you hit the ball are great!
      You can hit good shots both close to the table and at mid-distance!
      The racket itself is light and easy to use
      You'll regret it if you don't try this one!

      Barcelona (Experience: 6〜10 years) Looks like a Barcelona jersey

      Player reviews

      Basically it's the same blade as the Zhang Jike or Timo Boll.
      The only differences are the grip design and the grip itself. Beyond that, it just comes down to design preference and which player's model you like.
      The color scheme kind of looks like Barcelona's football kit lol.
      The performance doesn't really need explaining at this point. Since it's an outer ALC, it has a lot of bounce, so it takes some getting used to.
