    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    The racket enjoys overwhelming support from power hitters and intermediate-to-advanced players, with its hard plywood composition and moderate flexibility producing heavy, spin-rich shots. However, its weight and difficulty in mastery make it unsuitable for beginners.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Delivers powerful, heavy attacking strokes
    • Excellent spin capability despite 7-ply construction
    • Outstanding compatibility with Rakza rubber
    • Considerable weight requires sufficient strength
    • Short-ball control difficult initially but excellent after adaptation
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveThe hard plywood structure generates explosive power with remarkable force when perfectly centered. It grips any rubber securely for complete follow-through, delivering outstanding shot stability.
    ▽ CriticalThe ball feel is unexpectedly dull and mushy, creating a mismatch for a 7-ply racket. At 95g average weight, it demands serious power and is unsuitable for beginners due to difficult short-ball handling.
