    Customer Reviews SummaryAI Summary
    Highly evaluated as a versatile racket for choppers, with excellent balance between defense and attack being its main feature. Widely supported across all skill levels from beginners to advanced players, and praised for its flexibility in rubber selection.
    ■ Frequently Mentioned Points
    • Excellent stability and control in chop shots
    • Provides adequate attacking power despite defensive bias
    • High compatibility with various rubber types
    • Suitable for beginners through advanced players
    • Particularly user-friendly for close-to-net techniques
    ■ Representative Voices
    ▲ PositiveA perfectly balanced chop racket with excellent defense and attack. Both forehand and backhand chops cut and suppress well, while attacks deliver sharp drives. Recommended for all levels from beginners to advanced, there's no reason not to choose this racket.
    ▽ CriticalThe hitting feel is hard and thin, sounding cheap. Lacks gripping sensation and is not pleasant to use. Requires pairing with softer rubbers for better compatibility.

      Player reviews

      Finally managed to get my hands on one. But I just couldn't get used to the hollow, clacky feel, lol.

      I think the depth of the chops and the level of control are both good. The bite would rank as good.
      Chopping with short pips on the backhand also feels nice. The maneuverability is high.

      Attacking also has more solid bounce than I expected, and you can put away winners. But,
      I guess it's the fate of a thin-plywood chopping blade - the clacky sound and that hollow feel really bother me...
      Especially when I want to hit a fast drive, there's a slight delay before the ball comes off the blade. Still, it's better than the Defplay.

      I think it's a good blade that suits a wide range of skill levels, but it just wasn't for me.

      Personally, I think this is good.
      Chop and block stability: excellent.
      That said, I feel like attacking with it takes a bit of getting used to. Also, and it feels a bit odd to say this myself, but it's easy to use for players who are already fairly strong. On the other hand, if a beginner or someone with a half-committed style uses it, it might be a bit tricky to handle. Still, the performance is genuinely good, so I'd recommend it.

      Player reviews

      I recently switched from the Defplay Senso V and have been using this blade for about two weeks, and I think it's really good. I used to personally prefer Donic blades, but after using this one, I ended up liking VICTAS more, lol.
      It's easy to attack with, and chopping is good too. I'd love for choppers to give it a try.

      Player reviews

      I'm a 7th-grade chopper. This blade doesn't have much bounce, so chopping is easy.
      It's also easy to hit counter drives after stepping back from the table. It's under 10,000 yen too, so it's good on the wallet.

      Player reviews

      It really has just the right amount of low bounce, and chops come out stable! Though the feel is a bit on the hard side, I'd say.
      It's a blade that works well with both hard and soft rubbers.

      Player reviews

      Regardless of whether you're a beginner or advanced chopper, this is an extremely well-balanced blade for chop-based players.
      There's no bounce to speak of, but the stability on chops and pushes is off the charts. Attacking is also easy.
      Koji Matsushita himself, who this blade is named after, still uses it, you know.
      If you're a chop-based player, this is a blade worth trying at least once.

      If you're a chopper, this is definitely a blade everyone knows. Both the feel and control are good, and I think the value for money is excellent too!
      That said, personally I feel like short pips suit it better than long pips.
      For those classic, old-school choppers who grind and grind with chops like Koji Matsushita and then finish off the chance ball (honestly, I think that's the coolest style, lol), I'd really recommend giving this a try at least once.
