    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    Highly regarded as a cost-effective carbon racket for beginners to intermediate players. Its lack of distinctive characteristics and high versatility make it recommended for first carbon racket purchases or second rackets.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Outstanding cost-performance at under 10,000 yen
    • Minimal quirks, suitable for a wide skill range
    • Excellent feel and stable drive execution
    • Outer carbon construction without excessive flight
    • Compatible with various rubber types
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveExcellent performance at an unbelievably low price. As a carbon racket, it's remarkably straightforward and user-friendly, capable of meeting demands up to intermediate level.
    ▽ CriticalPlayers transitioning from wooden rackets may struggle with its harder feel. Some users find it insufficient for mid-distance rally exchanges.

      under Cost performance.

      Player reviews

      It's a cheap carbon blade. But even though it's cheap, the performance is nowhere

      near comparable to other cheap blades. It has the bounce you'd expect from a normal carbon blade,

      and it's quite easy to use. If I had to name one downside, it'd be that it's a little fragile.

      Mine has already cracked and is unusable now. I wasn't a huge fan of the feel,

      but the lightness gives it a nice character.

      Nicky ,,, To outer carbon

      Player reviews

      I borrowed this from a friend.
      Even though it's a carbon blade, it uses thin fleece carbon, so the ball sinks into it a bit.
      (Still, it doesn't flex as much as a pure 5-ply wood blade.)
      It feels like hitting with carbon, but since the outer ply is a bit harder than the carbon itself, the speed comes from both the carbon and the outer ply.
      The blade is also thin and the feel isn't bad, so it might be a good step up from a pure wood blade.

      TT (Experience: 2〜3 years) 1Qor1Q test hitting in sound

      Player reviews

      The moment I picked it up, I thought it felt light.
      It's my first carbon blade, and I put on 1Q and 1Q Sound since I had leftover tension rubbers.
      I thought it might fly too much, but it doesn't bounce as much as I expected, and it's easy to control too.
      Even off-center hits come back cleanly, and blocking with 1Q and 1Q Sound was really good.
      Just a light touch sends the ball back fast, and counters are easy to land. But since it doesn't bounce too much, short pushes and other short-game skills are easy to do too, which is nice.
      I got this one on sale for 4000 yen, and at that price it's definitely worth buying.

      Violently Balanced

      Player reviews

      This falls into the well-balanced, easy-to-use category.
      The grip shape (FL) is the same as the plain/unmarked version, so most people should be able to hold it firmly.
      Compared to the plain version the feedback to your fingers is slightly less, but compared to Arylate-carbon
      or other special-material blades, you still get the feeling of hitting with your own power.
      It feels softer than STIGA blades that use ebony on the outer plies.
      Even people who prefer pure wood blades should just about be able to handle it, and for people who find other special-material blades
      too hard, the amount of flex here seems tolerable, so I think
      it'll appeal to a wide range of players.
      Personally I feel it pairs well with rubbers that have a soft topsheet
      and a harder sponge.

      Ita (Experience: 4〜5 years) Easy to use!

      Player reviews

      It broke!
      If you can accept that a blade is a consumable item, it's a good one!

      I banged it against the table a few times, and it broke after about a month.

      It's harder than the Swat and easy to use, with great speed. But the spin doesn't suffer either - that's the nice part. Definitely give it a try.

      Jesus (Experience: 6〜10 years) light

      Player reviews

      I use it with a Chinese-style grip.

      The blade itself is light, and since the head is a bit smaller than the Ma Lin series, it ends up even lighter.

      Compared to the Ma Lin series you can swing faster, but because the head is smaller you really need to hit it right on the sweet spot,
