    • Excellent drive extension, especially suited for cut attacks
    • 7.2mm blade thickness provides stability against opponent's power
    • Difficult to handle for beginners or power-focused players
    • Works best with Yasaka rubber, especially Rakuza 7
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveThe hinoki wood delivers a pleasant striking feel that combines quick ball release with excellent ball retention. With patient and persistent use, players will truly appreciate this racket's qualities.
    ▽ CriticalThis racket is not recommended for cutmen except those at the level of Eita or top tournament contenders. The excessive bounce makes it difficult to control cuts effectively.

      I switched from the Innerforce Layer ZLC. Initially, I used Fasterk G1 on my forehand, but my backspin shots weren't clearing the net very well. Switching to Rakza 7 made that difference. It's a somewhat contradictory racket, combining the comfortable feel of hinoki wood with the quick ball release and the good ball-holding ability of a wood ply. However, if you use it patiently for a while, you'll appreciate its qualities.

      The blade is a relatively thick 7.2mm, so it's not easily pushed back by opponents' shots, and rallies have good distance. However, it's not a particularly bouncy racket, so technique is required to generate power. The backhand is easy to swing through, making it suitable even for those who struggle with backhand drives.

      I think it's best to stick with Yasaka rubbers. Rakza 7, in particular, has a very grippy feel.

      I think it's more suited to technical players like Aida than power players.
